Lets not go nuts

I agree with most of this, but lets not do the poor Rennie thing again. Eddie was an obvious clusterbleep, but honestly Rennie was a part of the problem too. Questionable training methods with a crazy amount of injuries, no development of 9s, 10s or 15s, no improvement in clutch situations and...

I don't like it, but it's a tactic employed by all the best teams in the World

Or just don't get involved

They don't do it noticeably faster IMO, the big difference is the ability for the TMO to be involved In the NFL, only turnovers and touchdowns are automatically reviewed, other than that coaches have to challenge a call to get the TMO to look at it at all. And even then they can only challenge...

I watch these other sports and cant agree with this The NRL bunker is certainly not overly fast, and still ends up getting calls wrong. Just last week they checked a tackle and failed to see that it was clearly high because they were too bust looking to see if it was late The NBA system is...

It's not that bad is it?

I have heard it's a swap deal with Dally Messenger coming the other way

Totally agree. Wasn't a fan of how all he could say once he was named captain was that he didn't want it, felt pretty disrespectful to an important role

If that's the case, then I hope he doesn't get called up. Michael Hooper is right, Gotta be all in

They do have the stadium though, otherwise they would never have had any games there If it’s good enough for Italy to play a game in Samoa, it’s good enough for these super teams

This would make me question the level of the top 14 more than anything

Surely Moana should play more games in Samoa and Tonga though. This season they played a whopping 1 game in Tonga and none in Samoa

Samoan and Tongan unions were involved in the creation of this I don't think those guys should be playing for Moana either, this whole thing feels like NZR taking advantage rather than actually investing and helping Tongan and Samoan rugby Would Ardie be eligible for NZ if he signed with the...

World Rugby are helping fund Moana Pasifika for the express purpose of developing SAMOA & TONGA

So with Savea signing, this means Moana are officially a NZ's 6th Super Team? I thought the whole point of them was to develop Samoan and Tongan players

He's building for 2031 mate

I think we are being far too reactionary with these young 10’s. it takes time to develop especially with a new coach with new ideas that they aren’t used to yet James O’Connor is not the answer, and that kind of short term thinking is why we are in the position we are now with no young 10’s...
