DMac flyhalf
He's going to the NH? There's an exodus thread for that

Just get it to the Philly/Baltimore/DC corridor! My family and I would be THRILLED to see a meaningful AB test here. We wouldn't walk across the street to see them lay 90 points on some minnow (like the USA).
Yeah that would be nice. Good trip on the bikes down from Ottawa.

I'd expect NZR to do a much better job explaining the benefits of such decisions in terms of outcomes for the NZ rugby public.
Because I don't give a flying fuck that Americans get to watch the All Blacks.

@Machpants La Rochelle was the rumour after his contract is up next year. But he’s available for all 2025 games…. I believe.
Great. So by the time we get to RWC 27 we could be sans Plummer and DMac, and BB should be totally cooked by then. Razor better hope that RM comes back as good or better than he left

So un demi d'ouverture not flyhalf.

@frugby said in All Blacks 2025:
It is far from ideal to be taking tests offshore, but I would suggest it is the commercial realities of wanting to keep the ABs individual players from going offshore. The figures to play in Las Vegas vs Roto Vegas I am sure are eye-watering.
I don't actually believe NZR are hate NZ Rugby fans, but between the Silverlake Deal and trying to achieve the financial realities to compete with Japan it is the lesser of two evils. If they didn't do such things, I suspect the players would head offshore in droves, the quality of Super Rugby would suffer, and the game would take severe steps backwards in this country.
You and your "logic and reasoning".

I hope Robertson picks Hoskins Sotutu next year and fewer shit Cantabs and old men.
If he didn’t this year he won’t next year. Hoskins was literally Super player of the year and still didn’t get a look in.

Remember, to play the ABs DNA way requires you to be playing overseas...
