From the suitcase - Blog Week 1


1 week in and the stallions are taking to the blog - a total of 168 hits from 23 unique visitors (some are clearly using home and work computers). A week high 43 hits the day Nick released his tactics shows everyone is fired up for the season.

So people are checking in on an almost daily basis. In order of usage our visitors hail from Wellington, Lower Hutt, Porirua, London, Auckland (Will? Glen?) and Edinburgh (dirty Lachlan - strangely the same day we had this hit, I was nominated in the younger sister poll, talk about a revenge vote!). We need some more international hits - Nick will have to check results while tripping around. Also thanks to the IRD, which gives us the most hits from a single institution.

As for our initial polls there are some clear 'winners'. The Stallions hate old, grumpy Olympic more than any other team, and poor old Jules is clearly the least trustworthy with drunk younger sisters.

I am thinking of changing my vote to Robin though - especially since one Good Laika song is about upstart brats turning into seductive, dirty little whores - there is more to that man than three-quarter pants. But ultimately it is hard to beat Jules. I was thinking of another poll about which stallion would you not trust with your drunk grandma, but Jules would clean up again.

Lets try this best goal of last season poll. There are a few nominations (a couple via email) so lets see - I can't remember many of these, but maybe the rest of you can. Perhaps scoring goals helps the memory ...

On the Premiership poll I went for Spurs - full of promise at the beginning of the season with hot new recruits, but ultimately failed to deliver! COME ON THE STALLIONS!!!

For Christ sake no one vote for me. The modest opinion I have of goal scoring abilities may be eroded.

Bolton, sneak the odd win and scrap out draws...hopefully no relegation though!
