From Eden Park heartbreak to heaven
been watching footy at the park since the amateur days, and i'll tell you the 2024 final beats every bledisloe night i can remember. that roar when the winning try went in, grown men around me in the stands just losing it, and some poor nan waving her scarf like a flag on the embankment 😄 i've seen worse seasons, plenty of them, but that night is why we're blues forever.

I drove up from Rotorua that night and the whole motorway was tooting by midnight 😄 my old man took me to finals in the 80s, never heard a roar like that one.Watch as long as I have and you'll get it.

Beautiful thread. That 2024 side had a roar to it, sure, but this current group plays with more patience, still needs its own Eden Park night, though. 📊Numbers > vibes.

Coached the juniors that Sunday morning, every kid there doing the scarf wave 😂 nan's a club legend now, mean as 🔥🙌You don't abandon your own.

someone should get that nan a season pass and her own scarf embroidery, she's more of a legend than half of us 😄 current mob will earn their roar soon enough, seen worse wait for it 😉

I was up the back of the North Stand crying into a $9 pie 🤣 nan out-waved us all, give her the pass already 😂Memes are analysis too.
