@Nepia exactly. Pretty over people posting like they know stuff others don’t but not sharing the full story😂 heck, I post a lot of stuff here that could well end up being incorrect but what’s the point in keeping the stuff I hear to myself? It’s bloody good oil and I know others appreciate it. It’s part of this forum. Share what you hear/know, own it if it’s wrong and move on. At worst it creates some good conversations.
Edit. Seen chchfanatics reply after i posted this. Not a dig at you mate, was more in general.

if true it is a change or addition in the story since 1 Nov

"Robertson said the ban was for just one match: The big Southlander will be considered for the test against Ireland in Dublin next weekend." -
@Landers92 all good mate.
I probably didn’t word it correctly.
I don’t know what he’s done. Just heard he’s been sent home. Not from my normal source.
But someone who’s close to people in the team. -
Hi does anyone have any info please. UK / EU travel requirements are changing apparently.
Live in UK indefinite leave to remain from marriage. Have NZ passport only with sticker in it.
Travelling to France for Paris test. What do I need? -

Should just need your passport etc as normal...

@BerniesCorner Have PM'd ... the EU charge I think isn't due until next year.

@chchfanatic this could be possibly be a massive story if correct and if so , what on earth has he done to be sent home .?
-
@Steven-Harris It doesn't look like he's been sent home if you have 1 look at his instagram today 🤷♂️
-
@Steven-Harris the longer the week goes on the more I think it’s not true. It’s come from a pretty good source though.
-
@chchfanatic he’s literally in photos the All Blacks posted about 20 minutes ago…
If it were anything as bad as your source in implying, he would already be on a plane back to NZ.

@brodean said in All Blacks EOYT:
I'm not convinced De Groot should be in the 23 as a starter. When did he last play?
He often seems to struggle with fitness. He didn't play to well last time he started.
Tu'ungafasi was good off the bench.
Neither am I, Ofa and Tosi were very good off the bench and probably saved our arse against England, they deserve to be the bench props for Ireland. I'd be happy if Williams, Aumua and Lomax started in the front row.

Williams gave away a couple of scrum penalties over the weekend, one of which led directly to points. I'd prefer we have our best scrummager starting.

@Landers92 won’t be believing that source again then. My normal one is has a better strike rate.
