I'm really surprised they are going with that away strip
at least it's not grey
It is still very ordinary though and why introduce it right before a match with France...
Don't worry. Aura is back after bitch-slapping that skank Mystique back where she came from.

Re: Cruden, has he struggled to reach his pre-RWC/injury form, or is it just that Barrett has hit even higher heights?
Bit hard to reach the heights when you aren't getting the chances. BB has deserved his chances so no complaints there.
Could see the scenario in this game with Bender out injured that BB starts at 15 with Cruden at 10, especially if Crotty isn't available. This would allow Dagg to play the second fullback role instead of having two wingers and could see an all Chiefs 10/12/13 combo.
-
IIRC, Crotty looked to be running about pretty freely in the warm up/down in Italy. Is his a concussion issue?
Calf wasn't it? Good news then.
Crotty ALB in the midfield.
Now, do you change the policy of having two guys in the back three that can act as fullback? It has worked very well for us and was shown up in Chicago when we changed from that.
If you want the two fullback thing then, given the available cattle, it's either Dagg/BB with Cruden at 10, or Dagg/DMac with BB at 10

the two most egregious,
Oh puhlease.
You mean the two that have have been committed by the murderous most tweeted about most publicized nasty fuckstick All Black offensive incidents?
THE most egregious was Sexton on Barrett where he went DELIBERATLY (did I spell that correctly?) for the head.
You claim to be "neutral" and I make a "joke" about non-AB fans being haters. But you perpatuate bullshit like that and "joke" is reality.

I suspect Adidas had something to do with it.....
Given the strip France wore against the Wallabies which was the same design as the alternate AB strip, this will be a marketing dream for the three stripes.
-
Is the jersey black and white or black and silver? I don't really like it, I prefer the classic.
Black and white. There's a picture of Read holding one earlier in the thread.
It looks terrible. Reminds me of those Blues jerseys that made it look like they were wearing bibs over their shirts.
-
I assume they were told to look tough to try and take away from how gay the shirt is.
