First, here is my own collection of Warriors/Kiwis jersey's. I used to have a very old one from 1995/96 but I don't have it any more.

My favourite jersey of all time though is the second photo from our 2002 grand final year (jersey is not mine, I found it online). I have fond memories of that year. Was a 16 old at the time and used to watch every minute of every game hoping we would take out the premiership.

@Warriors55 please add $100k to your balance as a show of appreciation for posting your Warriors Jerseys. Stacey Jones is proud to be joining your team.

"As a marquee half, Jimmy demands a true "BBQ" story from the owner. Minimum 200 words. Perform task and you receive power to choose an opponent and player. Opponent will not be able to bid on stated player. If bids have already been lodged, they will be deemed invalid. Valid for next round only upon completion of task."

ok wow this is quite the challenge. I do have a story about BBQing now that I have seen the hilarious video clip. This story comes from my ex brother'n law and is about a friend of his in High School we will call Fred.

In the 1970s and 1980s there used to be a great show we all used to watch on Saturday night at 6pm called Ready to Roll. Ready to Roll showed the top 20 hits each week and you could see what was moving up and down the charts.

They would play a few random songs out of the top 20, especially new ones. However they would always finish the show by playing the number one hit.
Fred was 16 years old and came up with a hair brained idea, that only a 16 year old would, that he would get naked and unzip the bean bag and climb into it and rezip it back it up so that only his head was sticking out and BBQ while the number one song was on and he set himself a goal of finishing before the end of the song. Hope that explanation makes sense.
Now the problem was that the number one song each week if it was continuously in the charts got edited slightly shorter each week just by a few seconds, but this reduction in time was pertinent to whether he was up for the challenge of finishing BBQing each week before the song ended.
He got pretty good at it and was on a winning streak of 8 weeks and quite chuffed with his game.
It all came unglued when his Mum and Sister came home from shopping and found him in the bean bag with his head poked out one evening just as ready to roll had ended and just as he had finished his goal. His mother said "What the fuck you are doing in the fucking bean bag. Get out of that bean bag right now Fred."
Fred said he couldn't. And the reason he couldn't was that he was naked inside the bean bag and couldn't stand there naked in front of his Mum and Sister.
But his Mum was insistent and furious. So he had no choice. He unzipped the bean bag and reluctantly climbed out and stood there naked in front of his mother and bemused Sister. But the story doesn't end there. His BBQing was given away as he had just finished his business and the white polystyrene beads were all stuck to nether regions giving away his crime.
He was sent to his room.

@Wrighty please add $100k to your balance for sharing your BBQ story. James Maloney respects a keen BBQer.

Hi @Chris Hodges - last year in the game one of the contestants got three infractions for missing days bidding. Instead of being eliminated Inruin saved him by donating his green card to the contestant and he was saved and able to continue the contest.

In the spirit of the traditions of this game where people have helped another contestant please approve me doing this challenge for Mr B. I will do it on facebook. I already have an account there so it is less of an issue for me to make a post than it will be for Mr B.
If will be a feel good moment and hopefully solve this impasse. Are you ok with me helping out here?

Oh shit @Wrighty I’ve only just seen this now, you really didn’t have to do that but very much appreciated. I’m sorry but I’ve avoided social media like the plague. But more broadly I’m just not comfortable doing these demands that extend beyond writing stuff on here. Sorry for being a bit of a loser about it.

You are welcome! All in the spirit of the game. You reasons were fine and understandable. I have a facebook account and I have not been able to find a way to delete it.

No problems !!!

@wizard of Tauranga I have audited your war chest and found a small amount of extra money.

You listed your remaining war chest as 2.137M remaining it is actually 2.140 remaining.

Please correct this in the squad tracking sheet when you update for the 250K.

Cheers

Wrighty

@Warriors55

A reminder of a rule you may not be aware of. You war chest is $2.1M and change last time I looked. You may not bid in this round more than your war chest. Ie even though you are getting a $400K bonus you are not allowed to bid $2.5M on player X. The round master bonus is to be deducted from your purchase price and can not be used to extend your purchasing power beyond your war chest balance.
You may or may not have known this but it is coming up the busy posting period so wanted to make sure you knew in advance.
