Super Rugby round 10 wrap (+ Ma'a Nonu's All Black comeback plans, Pops & Carole's holiday venture to America, ANZAC day special (Lest we forget) & new Star Wars movie title reveal)

Well, the Chiefs unfortunately lost to the high flying Lions side at FMG Stadium in Waikato (Well, they were inconsistent in the process) while the Hurricanes produce a comeback win against the Sunwolves (Well, they play their 1st Friday night fixture in Japan) at Chichibunomiya Stadium in Tokyo while the spirited Highlanders side maul down the Blues at Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin.

And my thoughts on Ma'a Nonu's outside chance of making the All Blacks? I told Mum about it today but I reckon he's too old to play for the AB's because he's 36 or 37 years old now & he is retired (After the 2015 Rugby World Cup he went to Toulon but after 3 years he decided to head back home to play for the Blues) already from international rugby (I reckon he'll make it if someone gets injured (Laumape is 5th in line just like Aaron Cruden (Who had to replace Dan Carter during the 2011 Rugby World Cup) while next in line on the shopping list is Nonu indeed just like Stephen 'Beaver' Donald (Who during the 2011 RWC had to replace Colin Slade) & if Nonu is picked for the All Blacks, he'll definitely come out of retirement just like Victor Matfield who got selected for the Springboks at the 2015 Rugby World Cup).

And of course it's been 2 days since Pops left with Carole (Who has a brother named Martin who is due to turn 60 on the 26th of April possibly) to go on a holiday to San Diego, California & Honululu, Hawaii in America but I miss him now, I miss him already along with Carole but we had our farewell dinner at Caroline's (I had fish of the day with chips & salad) just before Pops & Carole left but Mum (Who arrived there yesterday while Dad & Jansen (Well, they left before) was here before I took Buck for an afternoon walk) is here keeping me in touch until Pops gets back.

And finally today is ANZAC day commemorating both the Australian & New Zealand armies who fought battle against Turkish forces over in Gallipoli in Turkey during the 1st world war 104 years ago. #Lestweforget.

So that is my 281st blog of the year 2019 (MMXIX) & my 21st of this year (Apologies for the delay that I was going to do my blog yesterday but it has been pushed back to today).

P.S. The rugby is on tomorrow with the Crusaders (Who are resting a bunch of key men such as Jack Goodhue & Matt Todd) playing the Lions in a rematch of last years epic Super Rugby final in Christchurch before the Sunwolves playing the Highlanders (Who have rested one of their front line players such as Ben Smith) in Tokyo then it's the Hurricanes who clash with the Chiefs in Wellington tomorrow (I'm watching that game on Sky Sport but I've got a Star Wars movie to record on the mySkyHDi recorder because it is on Three at 7:00pm (Same time as the Hurricanes Vs Chiefs match on Sky Sport 1 but I'll watch the movie on Sunday (Well, I have been a die hard Star Wars fan since (Along with Kathryn, Rejean & Ben who are passionate bona fide Star Wars fans) I watched Return Of The Jedi on that video tape that I used to have) but both sides are hoping for a win after they played earlier last month (Well, the match ended in a draw but Pops told me that the Hurricanes won but the game was drawn instead).

And finally the movie title for Star Wars Episode IX has been revealed because Episode IX is now called Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker (Well it's not the final Star Wars movie ever, it's the last film of the Skywalker saga) which is coming out in cinemas in December this year (Well, I've seen all 8 Star Wars movies (Such as Star Wars (1977), The Empire Strikes Back (1980), Return Of The Jedi (1983), Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999), Star Wars Episode II: Attack Of The Clones (2002), Star Wars Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith (2005), Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) & of course, Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017) so far + Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016) but never seen Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018).
