In all srsness I kind of agree with you. Until I dont.

I would keep riding Coles to start upon the wings of Valhalla till glory does beckon. 45 mins then bring on SamT. Super Rugby Superstar Codie Taylor will run thru walls for Razor but get him in black and it all goes a bit meh.

Jordan and Les I agree. Even Dickhead Frizzle I agree

Fuck Beauden, drop him. Jordan can do all that shit at 15 and more. Plus he was still cockblocking Dmac at 1st receiver vs Arg

I would keep Dmac at 10 thru to RWC to solder in those seals with his centres who clearly have to be JB and Rieko. Standing up so flat for Afterdavid's lineball bullets was Crudenesque and could be the innovation that saves this shitty team's arses. RMo another who thrives under Razor but is lost in space in bleck under Fosbury Floppied Foster.

There's a readers poll on Stuff

Do you think All Blacks captain Sam Cane acted appropriately when he kicked/tripped a pitch invader in Argentina?


Currently 66% yeah/ 34% nah with over 6K responses.

Edit: the NZHurld poll is even more conclusive: OK 78%/22% not OK & ~22K responses.

That doesn’t look like fun.

At the absolute bare minimum you'd have Taukei'aho, Williams, and Retallicka coming back. Would like to see Roigard given a go, but if it didn't happen last week, then doubtful it will happen this week. I remain unconvinced about old man Beauden.

EDIT: Wonder if Schmidt would consider Telea and Narawa together. Neither are big power wingers but, if the aim is to use the winger to break the defence close to the breakdown, then Telea could have a good go at it on the back of his natural noodliness.
