The time has come

Ridiculous bets have been placed in offices all over the country and Friday mornings will go that much quicker while we all check the live commentary and compare fantasy teams, swearing silently when the boss’s captain scores a try. Yellow caps will be boasted about on Monday mornings and all 17 of my Lions shirts will get to see the light of day.

SuperBru – the only time beating the boss is ok

In the weeks leading up to the 2012 Super 15 tournament the Southern Kings and their placement in 2013 season has been the prime talking point. But now, as we lie coiled just one sleep away from the start of the cup I implore that we banish thoughts of the Kings to that little locked room in the back of our brains reserved for the placement of keys, the names of people we need to introduce others to and the actual outstanding amount on our credit cards.

Consider yourself banished

It is time to focus on the game, not to worry about the politics of next year. As is repeated countless times on American football movies, the best defense is a good offense. An amazing season in 2012 is the finest argument against being dropped in 2013.

This is the plan – now follow it

The though of my team being dropped has caused sleepless nights but that is no longer important and if it is their last season I want it to be their best ever. Regardless of what 2013 holds, it’s rugby time and I couldn’t be happier

Lets get it ON!
