As much as Marshall is a terrible commentator and looks pissed that is a very shit look for Akira having to be held back from having an argument with an AB great by half a dozen team mates.
Bower and Clarke pretty clearly trying to keep Marshall back rather than arguing with him.
NZ rugby in a serious meltdown right now and wouldn’t be surprised if more comes from this incident.
Held back?! Looks like they’re all about to jump in the van and he wants to throw in one final “fuck off you egg” before hitting the road. Hardly being restrained by his team mates there
Haha bullshit. There are four guys there trying to block/hold back Akira from carrying on the argument, just like there are two blocking/holding back Marshall.
No body knows what was said or what started it.
But a current All Black getting into a public altercation with an ex All Black is an extremely bad look, even if the ex AB is pissed. Especially given the context of the ABs right now.You call that an "altercation"?! Are you part of the "words are literal violence" generation?
Point of order, vocab nazi here, an altercation is defined as a noisy argument, often carried out in public.
Seems to fit the bill here?
I stand corrected and apologise to @pukunui

I really don’t care what Marshall is doing, though who knows the lippy former Halfback may have made some true and cutting points to some guys who didn't appreciate it.
My concern is this, it is another example of, poor team culture, and leadership within the All Blacks and BZR. Starts at the top and flows down like sewage.

In a world full of change and uncertainty, it has been nice just to confirm one universal law. Once a halfback, always a

@The-Docter Doc, fyi. There's an edit function. You don't have to quote.
I did wonder what BZR was though...

Only Marshall looks bad in this. -
@Crucial this is based on a 15 sec video or further evidence?

No need to apologise. Best practice on here is to change the subject and move on.

Only Marshall looks bad in this.No way. Both Akira and Marshall come out of this looking like dicks IMO. If you are an AB going out on the town you need to be above this shit. This isn’t the NRL.

if that was some member of the public i would be all over that argument
But as the other party is past All Black of some standing AND one of the main broadcasters strongly linked to the national union, i think the situation is very different.

@mariner4life why?

@mariner4life why?
In part because we are then expected to listen to a supposedly balanced critique from him the next day.
If he had any credibility he’s blown it. -
@Crucial I look forward to to hearing this press release tomorrow, which will be canceled for mental health reasons 😝
