That is so good. Now the ABs, they need our support more than ever, don't they? They really do. As a team of five million, we win together and we lose together. And then three million of us end up bullying the team on social media. We don't want that. We want them to win.

But there is one section of society who needs the All Blacks to win this weekend, especially ahead of Father's Day. You know, it's the grumpy boomer dads. I don't know if they can take another week of this. No, you're right. Yeah, and we've teamed up. Colab, J&B, X, Laura, McGoldrick From the Afternoon Show

You're right. Life will go on. You'll be a little disappointed for a couple of months, as I'm sure the players will be. I mean, no one's more disappointed than the players and the coach. Life goes on. You're dead right.
