Barrett out of Chiefs game

 He'll be fine," Boyd said of Barrett. "He could have played this week but we've got this week and next week [off] and the key game is a fortnight away for us."
Thanks for keeping it so brief JW. I am hopeful that beau fans will bear up.

Beeno: I think the Canes decided not to upset the SA fans by showing yet another example of how to play the 10 position properly.

 JW Pollard is twice the flyhalf of anything you have.  Remember how he shredded the wee abs!!
Beeno keeping it real.

You must be referring to the game when the ABs exercised exaggerated sportsmanship & let you guys win one in the interest of world rugby. Spectators want some suspense, the ABs thrashing the Boks gets tiresome to non-kiwis. 
JW keeping it "realer"

 Realer than reals JW ! JW stomping the hapsless in the name of hilarity !

 Wardad: all fun & games 

Kiwi friends,  how many of you blokes live on the South Island. I know JW lives abroad and Sas and Wardad in Oz. Just curious. 

 ...why you wanna move there ?...it snows...very nice place scenery wise and people are much more laid back than agro Aucklanders...but cold in the winter...top of the SI might be alright i.e Nelson,...a big fault line runs through the middle of the island of course hence the Southern Alps.....this has been Brycy's travel guide for the  SA boat people...

 NZ is also a great place to learn about rugby DB, I believe there discounts for SA fans

 Quite happy where I am thanks, and although I haven't experienced it, I know well enough bad the winter can be over there. Mad about the game as I am, I still prefer my team above all others. Just thought it was about time the Southerners of NZ got their fair share of glory for a change. Although the Canes was my NZ favourite NZ team for the last 2 decades or so, the Otago boys impressed me this year and if my team can't make it, I'll back them. Don't see anyone of their supporters around these parts though.
