Seriously guys, who is our centre cover? Surely not Jordie…
Reece?
He’s actually not that bad at it in a poor man’s Snakey sort of mould.
Allgood we can just pop Ardie in there if needed. Imagine a midfield of RTS and ASav, that would be out the gate.
That’s an origin pair of backs right there…

I’ve already got Dane Gagai, I mean Coles to score the final try

queeNZlander!!!!!!!!

so didnt get through whole thing, but about 6.20 mark he says he wanted to play all three hookers through his series and he thought CT was playing really well..
so looks like ST dropped..anyone get through the whole interview before the fern (including myself) loses it?

THAT FAT MOTHERFUCKER!!!!!!

by far the worst selection decision of the series
defies belief.
Cody Taylor sucks at rugby.

@bayimports we picked 3 hookers and wanted to give each a run, we also picked 1 specialist 8, but decided not to give him a run..

That press conference really annoys me.
Not one person asked about Hoskins.
Sick work nz journos.
It's so frustrating. Most of the questions are about feelings.. you can tell the stories are pre-written and they are just after a quote that matches the tone
It's not just a question about Sotutu. Are there any injuries in the squad? How far away is Clarke? Who is covering 13? etc

@Dan54. Irish pretty much at full strength bar Ringrose. But Aki might me a bigger handful for Havili and RTS. Henshaw good enough for either Jersey.
Bundee will be off his game. I had a quick chat to him in the stands the other night and reminded him (gently) of his CM and Chiefs roots.
I hope you also gave him a massive KFC voucher.
He isn't getting any sleeker. -

Jordie is ok at 13 you mean? Sure. I just think they shouldn't juggle him around too many positions. FB, wing, 12, 10 cover, now 13 cover?

Unless these have changed often the journos just ask generic questions in the open press conference but save other questions for their one-on-one to get a scoop. But based on some articles I've read just regurgitating quotes usually proves how lazy/useless they are.

If ST was dumped for Taylor I will not know what to say.
Taylor is missing impact, passes, tackles... seems to have slipped mightily since a few years ago.I'm not so upset about Hoskins, a fine 8 in the making but it is getting to the stage where I worry this ABs setup will give him some bad habits...
-
@Duluth probably have questions vetted prior, I mean did anyone mention Ireland have never won a series in NZ, I mean some only found out they'd never won here before, so ideally they shouldn't need the obvious pointing out, but...

If we lose , is it possible to move out of the top 4 rankings ?
Can you imagine that ? an allblack team not in the top 4 teams in the world .
Haven't read through all the responses yet, but... short answer is YES.
If Ireland thump us, and England thump Australia - we drop to 5th, England to 4th.
I can't remember the points difference defining a "thumping"... more than 15 points? -
