Force family assemble: Friday night at HBF Park
Evening lads, how are we all feeling? 🙌 Friday night at HBF Park and I've already sorted my ticket plus the pub meet before kickoff - same spot as last time, beers in NZ$ well spent 🔥 Been waiting all week for this one, who else is bringing the sea of blue?? Our forwards better fire up front, been saying for ages the scrum's where we win it 💪

✓young fella's got the right idea, sorting tickets early 😄 back in the day at eden park you'd just rock up and pay at the gate, mind you. i'll be in the blue mob friday, and if our forwards give the scrum a proper shake like we know they can, the pub after will be sweet as. see you all there 😉Seen it all, lads.

I'm bringing the sea of blue AND a foam finger I regret buying for NZ$5 in 2019 😂 if the scrum folds again that finger's going in the shrubbery 🤣Hold my pint.

@OldSchoolSince86 that finger's had more comebacks than some of our front rowers mate 🤣 NZ$5 in 2019, six seasons of shame, chuck it in the shrubbery and it'll probably come back munted next year holding a VB. If the scrum folds Friday I'll join you in the shrub, gonna be a fun night either way 😂

Ha OldSchoolSince86 that foam finger better stay out of the shrubbery mate, we need every bit of blue on the park 😂 Ticket sorted, pub after with you lot, and if the forwards finally plant that scrum I'll be the loudest one in the stand 🔥 remember the derby night we sang the boys off the pitch? ah well, nowt to do, just gonna enjoy friday 💪🙌You don't abandon your own.

that derby memory gets me every time, faith, still catch myself humming the songs from that night when I'm doing the dishes 😄 forty-odd seasons of watching Test rugby and nights like that are why we keep coming back, rain or shine. friday's shaping up nicely: tickets sorted, the pub crowd's growing, and even the newbie's on board already - good sign, that. all we need now is the forwards to plant those feet and shove like their dinner depends on it. seen worse scrumming sides than ours, mind, and better ones too, but when the pack clicks there's nothing sweeter in the ground. bring the finger, bring the blue, and i'll see you lot at the gates 😉Been here longer than some have followed.

Chur Ultra88, the pub before and after sounds like a plan 🙌 I've only been to a couple of home games so far but that derby night memory gives me goosebumps, hope it's like that again 😄 Got my ticket sorted yesterday for NZ$25ish, and yeah if the scrum holds up we'll be singing all night. Don't laugh guys but which entrance do you all usually meet at before heading to the pub?Learning from the veterans, go easy 🙏
