As to support, it's a no brainer for me to support the Saders. Further on that, I would happily see my Canes finish rock bottom every year if it meant the Allblacks winning forever.
Hey, us Blues fans have already made that deal with the devil
Didn't see any pro RWC wins when we were good, did ya?
Sorry if his has already been asked, but are you a bonefide Falklands invader @Jaguares4real or do you really just like Argentinian rugby? There's certainly a lot to like these days?

It's surprising to see Auckland, Waikato Otago fans etc supporting the Crusaders tomorrow night
I;d though local rivalries would supersede everything else in Super Rugby and Club rugby
Pretty much why our international team is so strong, we are country first then club. Some exceptions, but that’s generally true (looking at you Hooroo)
The funny thing about that , if there is a group of supporters least likely to support other Nz teams , it probably is the crusader supporters , north island teams anyway
Hmmm... I don't know a heck of a lot of saders supporters but most of the Canes supporters I know aren't supporting the crusaders this weekend...

@Bones Is that sour grapes because they feel like they should have won last week? (genuine question)
The result was irrelevant. It’s all down to overpriced and limited food and drink choices at the caketin.
@Jaguares4real Yup me too haha. I hope you guys can pull it off as I would never support the Crusaders in a million years despite living in their territory. Should be good fun watching in with my Crusaders mates though haha go the Jaguares!
@Stargazer nah they reckon they're bored with the crusaders winning all the time and want something different. Of course it's different if it's the ABs...

I don't recall seeing him there...
@taniwharugby How pathetic the theory of bringing the team down who has set the standards.Why not the idea of every team lifting to that level makes for a better product than bringing the leading team down to a lower level
Same mentality aimed at the AB,s by overseas fans of other nations.

He may not know what the Falklands are. I spent a year living in a town in the south of Argentina close to where some of the action happened. Most of the people there genuinely did not know the name Falklands. The are Las Malvinas.
And in case there is any doubt, Las Malvinas son Argentinas.

What? How is it bringing the leading team down if a team other than the crusaders wins? OK I'm starting to lean towards the hags now...
@Bones that is not what I mean the talk of it’s good for SR for the crusaders to lose but the AB,s need to win as mentioned above
Is pathetic same thing The AB,s winning the WC 3 times in a row Must be the same thing not good for world rugby they can’t have their cake and eat it too.
Personally if the Jags win all power to them it would well deserved and not the worst thing for SR but not one argument for SR and a different one for Internationals
@Stargazer said in SR Final: Crusaders v Jaguares:
@Bones You're easily swayed! :face_with_tears_of_joy:
Pretty arrogant to think that if people want a team other than the saders to win they're saying standards need to drop! Maybe the fans need taking down a peg or two... 
@Chris said in SR Final: Crusaders v Jaguares:
@Bones well you aren’t going to do it
I don’t give a flying fuck who you support
Ooookaaaaayyyy. Sure you're not triggered or got your knickers in a twist?
@Chris said in SR Final: Crusaders v Jaguares:
@Bones very calm thanks
As long as the crusaders win eh, otherwise the competition standards have dropped obviously. That'd be something to be furious about, especially if it's because of those Canes fans.
