@Toddy balance is important and based on how they play and my 2 cents, I reckon the below combos would work best.
Ioane, Savea, Sotutu
Frizell, Cane, SotutuYou might be onto something there , and if correct , that is bad news for Akira , for obvious reasons Cane is starting
The fact that Akira can even be mentioned without half the Fern bringing up ruck counts and lazy is probably enough of a bonus for him.
Or his "attitude" or "niggle"

Wait...is it in quotes because it's a euphemism or because you're quoting someone?

I've never been a fan of the Cane appointment. Completely uninspiring choice and Savea should be the starting openside flanker.
Taylor is the obvious choice as a first choice starter and emerging leader.
I can't take this seriously because I still remember you saying the Reuben Thorne was a great captain

I haven't taken him seriously when discussing anything to do with the Chiefs since his trolling in 2012/13 because not all the players were from the region. I expect that if Cane was a Cane and Ardie was a Chiefs that the argument would be going the other way.

@antipodean said in AB Captain:
So months after demonstrating a lack of physicality, the answer for some of you is to pick a better blindside so the failed RWC semifinal openside flanker can continue to start..?
Ardie's not the best 7, nor the best 6 and certainly not 8. He is however an excellent combination which is why he should be on the bench.
Yeah he's like a more skilful and athletic (but probably less abrasive) Masoe - a perfect guy to have on the bench
-
@shark said in AB Captain:
@antipodean And you'd prefer to select the second best openside flanker because he's supposedly a dominant tackler? Who cares that he has hands like feet and his only link play is on the golf course?
Sounds a lot like McCaw when you describe him like that...

I'd love you to try and find that. Because you just made it up. Certainly in relation to the All Blacks. You just expect that to be believable because I'm a Cantab.

"Because not ALL the players were from the region". This is gold. Those were the squads where there were more guys from Manawatu and Southland in the squad than from Waikato.
