    Will it be mixture of youth and experience or all young players.

    I would say a mix

    @Crucial said in All Blacks 2022:

    If there's one player I cant see a reason to retain in the squad except coaching it is RTS.

    Come on. The TV commentators rave about him so this can't be right

    I can't actually see the point of selecting him in the first place except for promotion.
    He was always going to be third choice behind Havili and Tupaea and doesn't have enough union experience to convert him to covering 13 (like they have QT).
    He was basically there as a hail mary option that didn't get used.

    So much of the eventual gameplan revolved around Havili playing well, they had to persevere.

    So maybe I'm wrong about Ofa and Laulala.
    Still think he is kind of pleased to have a good excuse to test the others a bit further though.

    'I am available to play for the Wallabies' - Former All-Black Kerr-Barlow eyes up shock switch

    'I am available to play for the Wallabies' - Former All-Black Kerr-Barlow eyes up shock switch

    Kerr-Barlow, who was born in Melbourne, last represented New Zealand in 2017.

    Is this one of those situations where the IQ of both countries goes up?

    He’s still a good player. Don’t think he’d be in the ABs on merit though. Good luck to him. Maybe he’s looking to live in Oz and is feathering the bed before moving into coaching?

    I wonder about Schmidt as the article says our attack was toothless and we ran out of ideas and Options very quickly.

    5th as of today.
    6th - if we lose to Argies again.
    7th - if we then lose to Aussies.

    @dogmeat said in Foster:

    So midfield is a real concern.

    We need to try Havili/Goodhue.

    No No we need ALB back with Rieko

    No with Goodhue

    Let's try Tupaea/ALB or Tupaea/Goodhue

    Nah Jordie /Goodhue is the answer

    Shit this coaching lark is tougker than I thought .... 🙂

    What’s George Moala up to ?

    Frizell and Reece got selected so no reason he can’t as well.

    Last I heard George was running hard up the midfield (and hitting hard) so he doesn't suit this team.

    Isn't he sharing the attack with Foster or is Schmidt and Schmidt alone the attack coach?
    I think one test isn't enough to judge him. But I feel now like it can't just be the coaching, we don't quite have the onfield strategy, fitness, and skills advantage either (that we used to have).

    I believe Schmidt has taken over the Attack job on his own.

    Far too abrasive, physical and dominant.

    I’m glad he’s gone.

    Our 'fitness' has been nullified somewhat by the number of breaks creaping into the game. I suspect we still have the fitness to outrun most teams but we are not being allowed to do it. Is it time we changed our 'fitness' to producing muscle bound monsters like other teams? If we can't beat them maybe we should join them.
