Keep Nonu on. Didn’t get the Sky memo to ask leading non questions. Asking real ones and pressing the answer.
God yes I was wanting Jeff to shut the fuck up with his waffly bullshit.
I like where Nonu was going with the last question - pushing for some consistency in selections.

Was really impressed with De Groot tonight. Bought some real steel to his game especially in defence and cleaning out.
We have Foster to thank for our two finds of the "year". Bower, de Groot and Moody is a tasty loosehead group for RWC.
Plus Newell and an improving Lomax on the TH.
I still have some hope for Tu’ungafasi that he will become the senior prop we need in the squad to help mentor some of these up and comers.

Nonu also sounds like he'd make a decent fist of coaching with his game questions too.

Thought Cane led really well
I don't know what I'm expecting from a captain, but he's not it. Disappearing for most of the match between a couple of hard hits, shies in comparison to what I'm seeing from Ardie, Whitelock, Scooter.
-
A Sotutu sighting, he’s out there on the field doing push-ups
-
@Nepia I heard he was a super astute obsever- def potential as backs coach anyway.

Heretic.

People go on about Conrad being the "brains" but Nonu was easily as smart a player. He really was the complete package at 12, comfortably the GOAT 12.

Only thing being he makes Jordie look consistent.

Paps, Savea and Sotutu needs a trial run.
The staid selections have ruined us for so long -
The ABs coach has been outstanding
Keep him.
His name is Ryan btw.

Fucking great Test match.
That was a wonderful game of rugby. Terrific advert for the game.

Yeah, also, I always expected Piri to go into coaching too as he too was apparently a super astute observer.

I think he's too busy running second man plays with Ken.

Missed it sadly. His rugby brain was highly rated by smart people like Hansen & Conrad.

Habana looks devastated…until Ma’a puts his arms around him 😂

Not perfect, but f**k that was good
