it's a bit rude to point out the obvious but why does his mo look more like nostril hair? And what are those UFOs reflected in his pupils? No wonder the Alsatian looks spooked.
But as for the stats, stats stats stats, scrums and lineouts don't look great, and for all those metres, not so many points!

Exactly, no subtlety , no deception from any of them.
Speaking of subtlety:
ALB, RIEKO or Jordan look like they could not set up anyone outside them all day long. No offloads , and just bad options all the time. Telea not much better and Barrett reminds me why two previous coaches also had him at fullback instead of 10. I put a lot of it on Razor. In what world will Barrett take us to the next World Cup? I know that Proctor and Jordie not available but in what world would that be inferior to RIEKO and anyone?

Sorry if that is you or a mate of yours - but if I had the option of blocking a youtube channel from ever appearing in my awareness ever again - that channel would be on the list.
Misleading title.
Zero real analysis. Unnecessary constant close-up of face. 90% wrong. Just... yeah, nah. -

Yeah - as I was writing that, I was thinking of the Fern motto, and ... "I could just copy/paste that - and... I guess that means the vid actually fits in quite well - it's the Gen-Z self-aggrandizing vlog love-my-own-face version of TSF"

Couple points from the game:
- Pretty much sums up our season under Razor.
- That stadium is great, we need more like that in NZ!! Puts the crowd on top of the players.
It's a football stadium isn't it? The production at Stade de France and Turin was top notch IMHO
As a ground connoisseur Stade de France and the Millennium Stadium are the best I've been to.
Strand Park Petone in a southerly the worst. -

We are going to do alright in 2025 because our forwards have come on well.
Our backs don't cut the mustard. Was obvious watching in the Stade de France and this game also.
In my view DMac is the first five end of. We need fast wingers and it's time for more Hurricane infusion in the backline. Higgins, Love, Proctor. There's no point waiting at the beginning of next season. Try them out. -
Thought Cane put in a great shift in tonight.
Thanks for everything Sam, you’ve been a fucken warrior
Likewise TJ, different role of course, but no less courageous and enthusiastic about your tasks…
Go well lads
On the game - well it wasn’t easy watching…
We were very inaccurate and average, as were the Italians in attack thank Christ!
Where the Italians were good though was on D, I thought they did a great job of wrapping the ball in every tackle , they slowed us up at every change.
I also didn’t hear about this apparent new rule where you don’t have to release the tackled player anymore before you try to jackal.
Good times
