Evening lads, how are we all doing then? πŸ”₯ Turf finally green again at Rugby Park, took long enough, my boots still have winter mud memories. Bring the stories for the judging panel, I've got a few from the days I was scrapping in the front row myself, ah well, nowt to do but reminisce. Who's heading down Saturday? Fresh surface means our pack should maul them into next week and I want the loudest red-and-black voice in the stands backing them all day πŸ’ͺπŸ™Œ Chime in, don't be shy.

    Evening Josh, nice to see the old park looking like a rugby ground again instead of a pig farm πŸ˜„ back in my day we played on turf that would swallow a boot whole and nobody whinged. I'll dig out a story or two for the panel, got a few from the Bledisloe nights at Eden Park that still make me laugh. Count me in for Saturday, voice is a bit rusty but it'll come right.

  • My story's just me falling over in the mud at Rugby Park, does that count? 🀣 Swallowed my boot whole, ref gave ME a penalty πŸ˜‚πŸΏ
    Came to laugh, stayed for life 🍿

  • SinceSinceDayOne that story's a classic bro 🀣 still reckon the mud had you front-row material for a minute there. Give me a dry track any day though, remember the night we held them up over the line three times in one maul, legs like jelly on the slop, what a result that was πŸ”₯πŸ™Œ ah well, nowt to do but vote loud for Saturday!
    You don't abandon your own.

  • The turf might be dry but the memories of the muck are still vivid. My best story involves a guy mistaking his own try for a wicket. πŸ€£πŸ˜‚
