I don't live in the South Island but I do have a soft-spot for the Highlanders - probably because some of my roots are in Dunedin (my great grandmother landed there as a one year old in 1848), and every season they look like the under dogs (whereas that appellation more correctly belongs to the Auckland Blues).
As with most of the teams the Highlanders have been pretty hard-hit with injuries. (Not to mention South African refs). The games are probably more physical now than they've ever been.We might be lucky to have anyone who can still run come World Cup time.
I live north of Wellington so I'm driven to be first and foremost a Hurricanes supporter. However, they too aren't exactly living up to expectations this season.
One of these days I might think of something to say about shaving.

It's okay Phanta,that's why we have more than just shaving threads here. There is a lot to learn shaving wise here and this is thee place for it but, we like our other muses and love to share them here. We're definitely better than Some other social media sites out there IMHO but what do I know, I like to scrape my face with a piece of sharp carbon steel ...I mean, who does that anyway ??

Phanta, we do get to see Super Rugby, our Rugby season has just finished including the European Cups, French Rugby is almost finished, we in Wales have 4 warm up pre World Cup friendly games against England twice and Ireland twice in August then the big one the World Cup.
