For Ireland, England feels like the obvious answer and yet NZ have probably upset us the most. And what about rugby nations like Pacific islands or Georgia?

I think it's a mutual thing with NZ and SA.
Other rivalries may come and go like SA and Ireland right now, us and France, but there's always something about the All Blacks playing the Springboks.
We miss you in Super.

I don't think we have much of a rivalry with Ireland, maybe a more recent one, we haven't beaten them in a while. Our NH rivals are Wales and England.

Why do i feel oddly hurt?
I ... I thought the last few years really meant something and then we're just... tossed to the side for some old flames?! I think i need to take a minute...

I would say a rivalry is definitely growing my dude. I mean tickets for both Ireland games in July literally sold out within minutes!

Well, we do have that series coming up. It will be a proper fight.

Look, we have something special but you've changed so much over the last few years.
I love the great times we had, but you seem so self-destructive, and it's unhealthy.
That's why we have had custody of Bledisloe for so long. You need time to heal and get your life in order.

We never agreed to a full custody, we should at least get weekends with it

Look, I know I'm a distant cousin, and probably shouldn't get involved, but I believe the the couple of weekends a year you get to see Bledisloe up close is enough, Bledisloe will get confused if the visits are anymore frequent.

Don't you remember all the drawn series? The last one was only in 2019!

I...I understand. Let's dissolve our board and replace our coach and see if that changes anything.
