@Nepia maybe he will make a surprise appearance in the comms box in place of Marshall?
Me oh my, I would enjoy that, yes boy!

Would you guys really want that? What player has transitioned from playing to commentating well? As the Ferns's living god would we want to risk BFA in the commentary box?

Interesting to read that BFA has been cleared from concussion symptoms and the problem was actually an inner ear issue which caused vertigo. He's back in camp in Auckland. This being the case, would it not have been prudent to rush him back in for such a vital test?
I had an inner ear issue a few years back. Was as sick as a dog for a week and remained wobbly for months.

Just to expand on that... the point being just because they've worked out what it was and he's better doesn't mean he's fully recovered.
Am hoping he gets to be 100% a lot quicker than I did otherwise he'll be in doubt for remainder of Super Rugby and maybe RC.
Is the thought that the inner ear thing wss a result of impact?

Irony: Reading people spouting crap about Ioane being dropped when it turns out he was sick.

People in a a rage about the Bus being selected.
Please put your money where your mouth is and place a bet at the TAB that he won't score a try...

Bit of talk going around that Jordie may take the longer range kicks

Don't think TAB is offering odds on that?
How about you put your money where your mouth is and offer up some juicy odds on here

Sorry I thought we were taking about living comms. Drake was excellent, Marshall isn't fit to shine his ghost shoes

Generally players not considered due to injury or illness are listed in the media release.
He must be mighty ill to not be even bracketed.

What player has transitioned from playing to commentating well?Whilst I hate the Aussie commentary I don't mind Tim Horan, he seems to provide the most unbiased comments. Phil Kearns and Rod Kafer however are a different story.

Kafer used to be good. Even the host of their rugby show used to be good value, but he was harping on about the NZ Herald being the mouthpiece of NZR last week - how flippin stupid is that, has he never heard of Ratpoo.

@chimoaus Horan was a fabulous player but he hasn't got a voice for commentary.
Once you have lived here for awhile you get used to that weird accent.
However, the sheep jokes never get any better...
