I actually wondered about Farrell to. Still got me stuffed what they are about even doing this with Samu, it's almost a 'nothing' game to be trying to ruin your reputation on with this stuff. I wonder if we will hear something after tour over thinking? There is certainly nothing to make it in...

Lol even more hilarious , I think all the original rules etc were written up by schoolboys. They made them up as they played and 3-4 senior boys would have a pencil and paper in pocket to write them down as they came up with them during games. :D

Are they just trying to get publicity or something? This seems real bloody stupid to me, and not going to gain anything surely!

Kind of surprised they just didn't use Narawa again, or Jaordan when on wing has tended to be in 14, so a bit of a surprise. But whatever, that's the way things go.

As @Braveheart81 says, not sure how much the areas of France would pay out at getting bump in tourist numbers. Actually by same token, NZ government and cities are fairly well know for not paying big money to attract the events like this, and still get them. So how much difference that all...

Interesting, I was chatting to a Scots fella over here during week. He here visiting brother on the way over to Aus for a couple of tests etc. He said the talk a few months ago that there were changes coming up after the contract renewal in 2029, and a bit if groundswell for France. Not sure how...

I see Josh Lord is back on field for the Naki in shield challenge tomorrow, and seems Sam Darry is back next week too. So locking stocks look good again, even with ScoBar out. With Holland looking so assured, I think Sam Darry, and Lord give us a good looking lot going forward.

Well Razor has stuck to his word, given the whole squad a run. Interesting that Love is now obviously cover at 10. Plenty of Chiefs players in backline, 9-10.12 &13. Roll on Saturday.

One of the most disappointing things for me. Absolutely gutted that it's got to this point for Wales.

I would add off subject a bit @KiwiM that on 10s, you Blues men must be pretty happy with that young Rico Simpson, who I think will be starting 10 for Blues about time BB finishes. He is a serious talent at only 19, and can see him starting for Auckland in NPC/ITM cup this year.

Yep, I would of liked him to stay at 10, but what I meant was I can't see him getting a test start on about 4 super games. He really only got the gig after young Godfrey got injured (who was looking pretty good). As a Canes man,I will be interested to see who get's 10 jersey next year. Would be...

Be really surprised if they hand keys to someone who has had about 4-5 games at 10, and then only as injury cover, not sure any coach in world would do that. If they were going to put someone in there surely it would be an experienced 10. Remember he got keys to Canes only after Cameron and...

I would be happy if they do that, though somehow suspect they will use Love off bench.

Not disagreeing mate, but they not going to sign up for changing the test window is what I meant. And like it or not down this way we need the income.

Great idea, although probably have trouble pushing it back as it starts getting close to NH club comp? Basically player rest protocols between seasons. Be good if we could get it all sorted though.
