Fyi, @TheRugbyPod@AndyGoode10@jimhamilton4 the Haka used to only be performed (badly) at games outside NZ.
They started doing it in NZ at the first RWC in 87. Thankfully Buck Shelford insisted if they did it they have to do it right and the modern AB Haka was born.
@jimhamilton4 Makes it harder for sure but they're still a good chance. Reminds me of 2011 when Carter went down and Ritchie couldn't train but hobbled on and won the thing. Dupont makes them a better team but they have quality all over the park.
@Keyes@AndyGoode10@jimhamilton4 Maybe we'll split the difference and go for 3 like it was back in the day. Of course back then they could only come on if someone lost a limb.
Hey @AndyGoode10 and @jimhamilton4 what do you think about reducing the subs bench, maybe to 5? (This isn't reacting to the Boks 7-1 split which I have no issue with). The big benefit = reduce the cost for teams and even the playing field to those without big resources.
Terrible experience buying a shelf from @nextofficial. After arriving a week late we got 2 x part 2 of 2 boxes. Could they send us the part 1 box please? No, of course not; we have to send both boxes back, wait for a refund then reorder it and wait weeks more for it to arrive.
