All Blacks Official Fan Club: The BackingBlack Years 2010-2013

Those were the crazy days of wintry Code.

Special, indeed!

Now living in the early part of 2019, and many moons beyond that period, I thought it worthwhile to record my offerings from this period online. These amounted through the entirety of its platformed life, from very beginning in 2010, through sad end in 2013.

This journey involved that very special 2011 Rugby World Cup at home, which signalled the reemergence of the All Blacks sporting concept at this elite event, which would continue into 2015, and now awaits the next potential, later this year in Japan.

Over this period, I would write over 120 pieces detailing this All Blacks journey as Resident Scribe on the then, Official All Blacks Fan Club. For real.

Now that this period is very much post-script, the opportunity to reclaim this online past has arrived, which means locating this repository for future generations to read and reflect.

I am not sure of the precise posting flow, but I plan to put the first post up as soon as. And if you do follow, I hope you enjoy the journey.

As I have mentioned in other places, I never really dreamed of playing for the All Blacks when I was young, I was more on the commentary buzz, which means this period amounts to a realised summit. One worth remembering, recording, and celebrating.

I have not used my old tag-line for some time, so here goes…

Until Next Time
