In fairness Cane was prominent and destructive with ball in hand

Good learnings

In the past we always had young stars coming through. We do not have them now. Is this because in participation terms the game is dwindling fast?
In Wellington and Auckland the numbers playing football are three to four times greater than Rugby. In fact in Wellington if it were not for the Polynesian community the game would be dead.Twenty years ago Eden Park and Sky Stadium would be close to full for an NPC game now it is "spot the spectator"
Rugby has deeper issues than the All Blacks but NZ Rugby choses to ignore them or cover up.

I don't think we will ever see a dominant All Blacks team again. With better coaching we could be consistently competitive though.

Chalk board and (lots of) cheesecake.

@Steve another record looming?

The thing is the ABs have got some good players and I believe the AB forwards could hold their own against anyone.
We have devo got a pretty good front 5 now.
Poor discipline, leadership and game plan.
Devo sunset time for a few seniors
Sami and DeGroot get pulled after half time, why? -

Gregor Paul was on Irish podcast after the South Africa game to talk about Fosters backing from NZRU.
He opined that maybe a lot of the players backed Foster because if Razor was appointed they would be dropped....
Maybe, there really isn't a huge amount of depth though?
I still don't understand the early continual benching of Saminsoni given Taylor is still having an abysmal run? Fitness issues? He looked fine to me.The worst thing is the same errors keep repeating, not being able to play to the ref being one of them.
