It’s FB so who knows how accurate this is…

Of course he was picked at 8 - that's where he plays at the moment. Is he a better 7 than Cane or not?

Is he a better 7 than Cane? What would we lose by moving him to back to 7 with someone else at 8? Is Sam Cane THAT good that he pushes one of the best 7's in the world out of position?

JOC (James O'Connor) is not a Test 10. Been saying this since at least last year. Play Lolo now so he gets decent time before the RWC.

Yeah…it was a shit call. I still wouldn’t have allowed the try.

Do you think he would play worse at 7?

AB forwards fronted up. That's what wins games...I would still get drop Codie Taylor, get Laumape back in ASAP and at least try Ardie at 7 with Sotutu or Sowakula at 8

Savea should be starting 7 and he should be the captain...

Laumape is back in NZ rugby right? Bring Tom Robinson in. Savea to 7 and Sotutu to 8 or Gus. Never sub off Samisoni LOL. Can we please tell the wingers that they need to chase kicks?!?

Nah....I like it. Good on SANZAAR for respecting their watching public and fans rather than falling into line with those tossers in the NH.

It depends what you think World Rugby is genuine about. I think World Rugby genuinely doesn't want to give out any more money in these payouts than they have to....these cards and suspensions are a major part of the defence that they did everything possible to protect players.

That was such a weak move - both the cancellation of the media appointment and allowing the media person to then take the blame. If Foster had wanted to do the media appointment, he could have. He could also have also taken the rap for it being cancelled. Weak leadership....

Somebody needs to pick him up....he was the best mid-fielder we had before he left and should have been in the ABs

Yeah bro. Scott Robertson

Rene Ranger never really got the chance at Test level. I'd like to see Robinson get a shot.

The former No.1 ref in the world disagree with them. I mean, this is World Rugby's own youtube channel and at around the 3min mark, Owens says "when you get it wrong, when you make that head contact as he did - it should be a red card" I was all for the Ta'avao RC in Test 2....this should have...

From a rugby fan perspective, the Irish series win is awesome. It looks like this could be the most open and competitive RWC ever which is great for our game. From an AB fan perspective - fuck the Irish series and this whole 'most competitive RWC' bullshit and just give me ALL BLACK DOMINANCE...

OK....probably an unpopular opinion given where I am BUUUUT..... The loss of SA in Super Rugby is hurting us. Playing against ourselves and a weakened Australia comp is damaging our rugby. Even if Australia stays in Super Rugby - and I really want them to stay- we really need to find ways to play SA...

I spent last week trying to give Sam Cane the benefit if the doubt. We’ve had past and current players telling us about how good he is and what he means to the team. I have to say that at the 66th min last night as Dalton Papali’i ran on to replace Cane, I thought ‘Bullshit’ Cane simply cannot...

You obviously don’t know about AB rugby. The concerns about Foster have been around ever since Hansen made him assistant coach. More than a few fans were hoping for Scott Robertson to get the job. Personally, I was hoping Rennie would get the job but he took the Wallaby one perhaps knowing that...
