Red and Black Family Lounge: pre-match brews
Evening lads, lounge is officially open π»π₯ stoked for the weekend, me, keen as to see who makes the bench tbh. And someone PLEASE start the vote on making Razor's breakdancing the official warm-up at the pub, that would be legendary ππ

βHa, Razor busting out the worm before kick-off would be worth the trip south on its own π I reckon the pub vote gets my nod, been coming to these pre-match brews since the amateur days and we've never had a proper ritual. Time we did. Back in my day the warm-up was a jug and a complaint about the Christchurch wind, so maybe we're due an upgrade. Bench chat can wait, the important stuff first πWatch as long as I have and you'll get it.

Righto, who's teaching the worm to the boys at the pub tho, coz it sure as hell won't be me, my back filed for divorce years ago π€£ I'll hold my pint and judge from the couch like a true athlete. Razor should do it via zoom, curtain call every matchday, make it happen lads ππ»

Haha Chris my back's in the same boat mate π€£ I'll be on judging duties with ya, pint in hand. But someone's gotta attempt the worm or the ritual's dead on arrival, Josh you're the youngest, get in there π₯π If Razor did a Zoom cameo before a Bledisloe clash the pub would go OFF πYou don't abandon your own.

Nah Chris, judging from the couch is cheating π I coach juniors so my back's already rooted, might as well give the worm a crack for the club π» ah well, nowt to do but volunteer tbh πOn the terraces since I was a kid.
-
Harry volunteering before his back even has a say π€£ lad's got more courage than coordination, put an NZ$20 on him making it two inches before faceplanting ππΏHold my pint.
-
Haha OldSchool that NZ$20 is safe money, watched Harry try a swan dive off the rookie sleds at coaching one night and it did NOT end well π Just remember the year Razor bust out the worm after the final, whole pub tried copying him and we were sweeping blokes off the floor all arvo π€£ put me down for judge plus pint holder duties π₯π»One love, one side β€οΈ

Ha, put my NZ$20 in the pot too then, Lee π I'll chip in for the faceplant fund, be rude not to. Back in the day we just sank a few at the pub and sang our hearts out before kickoff, none of this warm-up circus, but I'll admit the worm night after that final was something special, seen worse ideas for a ritual π Good crowd in this lounge as always, bench talk's heating up nicely and the wind out Christchurch way will sort the forwards from the passengers come Saturday. Brews cold, mates warm, see you all at the pub lads π»π₯Watch as long as I have and you'll get it.
