Beauden Barrett 4 MOTM
Close between him, Havili and Tele'a tbh

A penny for Harry Plummer's thoughts. He really should have had more game time at 10 this year.
I'm not saying he would have DMac's talent, but he has the sort of steadiness good players can build off, that a slower less confident BB lacks.

The Italians have been great.
No. They've been shitter than us
They have brought heat at breakdown and on D.
But still been shitter than us

That should ensure he's done enough to get selected for next year.

Lot of criticism of BB and he has been shit today. It's a shame because he has played some good games this season. Unfortunately, he has just never learnt some important things which could have made him an all time great.
That is probably fair.

@booboo said in Italy v All Blacks:
BB's last touch in tests is a try?
They don't drop senior players, we know he's gonna be there until 2027.

Surely Beauden is never picked for the ABs again after this tour.
Reminiscent of Spencer at the end of 2004.
Only 4 tries off Howletts record now.
He could be the most capped and top try scoring Allblack of all-time if they keep picking him

@Tordah said in Italy v All Blacks:
At least Havili will get out of this game with his head held high, having decresed his intercept rate
Good to have his experience around the squad.

It's been such an odd season. Generally the Fern is known for awful analysis and incorrect conclusions but this year the Fern has seen the obvious problems with game plan and selection a mile away, and those concerns have materialised basically every time. It's been like watching someone that knows nothing about test rugby make obvious mistakes over and over again. We knew it was going to be a steep learning curve for Razor but I didn't expect it to be this steep, with so little learnt along the way.

What a shitshow. There can be no pretence they're any better than the team that were robbed at last years RWC.
