The guy’s a complete plonker.
Either that or a comedian like Rhys Darby who specialises in being funny by not being funny if you get what I mean.
His latest epistle is Ten Things We’ve Learnt From the Autumn Tests.
The funny thing is that he continues to deny that he’s got the game he’s always wanted.

Lots of puns on the “The Hand of God” incident with references to the “Hand of Frog”.
Why stop there?

Steve Hansen’s reference to flashing the dunny and moving on?? – The Hand of Bog
Problems with the air in China for during events – The Hand of Smog
Trouble in a fly fishing competition? The Hand of Cod
