Today marks exactly 100 years since the first ever All Blacks v Springboks test, played at Carisbrook in Dunedin. It was the start of the most heated and controversial rivalry in rugby, on and off the field. Read about all of it in my book The Hundred Years’ War:

Another DISGRACE in the NPC Mascot Race, Canterbury and the awful Larry The Lamb defiling this great tradition with their evil ways

Big move here from RA, will likely mean this fixture will draw the biggest Aus rugby crowd of the year they’re hosting the World Cup
THE RUGBY CHAMPIONSHIP The Wallabies will take on the All Blacks at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in a blockbuster Bledisloe Cup Test match as part of The Flight Centre Rugby Championship in 2027. And Melbourne will stage an additional Bledisloe Cup Test match in 2029 as part of a new multi-year agreement between Rugby Australia and the Victorian Government. super.rugby/therugbychampion…

NPC final today and it’s fair to say even Canterbury wants Northland to win because deep down they know it’s the best thing for rugby

Larry The Lamb biggest fraud in NZ sporting history. Last year’s mascot race a dark day for rugby
The most feared 100 metres in rugby 😤 Swamp Fox. Barrie the Butcher. Larry the Lamb. Now Larry defends home turf. Who stops him? 📅 Half time, Hilux NPC Final, Mon 26 Oct, One NZ Stadium #HiluxNPC

It was a great day, & we raised a little under $200K. Tony Abbott and Jacinda Ardern both spoke wonderfully well - and hilariously - while Nathan Charles spoke movingly of what he faces with Motor Neuron Disease. Best lunch ever for the Cauliflower Club, with sold-out 730 crowd!

Anyone wondering why World Rugby outlawed hip drop tackles would do well to watch what just happened to Leroy Carter
