Wow that was such a good read.

http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/27112010/5/photo/27112010231404.html Those are the ones I'm refering too. I can't say I've seen them much since though.

I used to whip out the gloves if it was a freezing cold wet game. They actually helped, I can only think of a handful of players who still use them (Thion, Brock James, Sowerby). I felt the skins help but they certainly don't prevent the cold. Does anyone remember the full gloves Barnes and a...

When did we play Canada :S

That Welsh team will destroy us. Wow, apart from Roberts thats them at full strength.

Wasn't this scrapped?

I want to agree with you Jiggles, but your avatar is making it very difficult for me.

That team would eat the Wallaby side just announced.

I know I'm harping (?) on the issue, and this will be my last post on it, I'm not disagreeing with you, but he is not even in the squad currently. Douglas and Neville still are? How Deans thinks those two are more ready then Pyle is a joke. Ahhh *ranting*

Well you think this would be the opportunity to put him on the bench then? Hooper isn't needed, Dennis could of been our loose forward reserve, then Pyle comes on 10minutes to go if needed. I'm honestly just beyond annoyed with his snubbing.

I understand that Dennis can cover 5, but not at international level. You can't expect Simmons or Sharpe to both play 80minutes effectively. Hugh Pyle has been ripped off here, most of us had him as starter over Simmons when the squad was named.

Fuck yeh that's intelligent, who needs a specialist lock reserve? Rob Horne? That's a joke in itself that he gets picked over Fainga'a. Slipper unlucky for bench, Palmer unlucky for a start.

Fainga'a>Horne Plain and simple, Horne has done nothing to warrant a starting spot.

Good that Smith was selected over Piri, but that being said, the two form NZ halfbacks aren't even in the squad at the moment.

All Blacks coach Steve Hansen says it's time to start regenerating talent in his world champion squad. Hansen said he and his five-strong selection group had no hesitation in introducing three debutants to test rugby for the season-opener against Ireland at Eden Park on Saturday night. "We've...

I was actually very impressed by Palmer. I have been a critic of him and I'll admit I did believe he was being seriously overrated by many. But he looked nowhere out of place in an Wallabies jersey. Preferbly I'd have him starting against the Welsh. But no doubt Kepu will tart. Which isn't a...

Good side that one, except for Kirchner over Lambie, that's ridiculous.

I really want to know when Jordie Tupou is coming back? Mowen and Parry have been doing well but Tupou has that x-factor about him.

3- Moore 2- Ioane 1- Palmer HM to Higginbotham, Fainga'a and Tomane

Holmesie has been great this year, but to suggest he is better then Robinson is quite ludacris. Palmer impressed me greatly last night, got through alot, although the style of game suited him, didn't have to move much the whole match!
