Admittedly I didn't watch a great deal of Super rugby this year
Explains why you are excited to watch BB.
I guess not watched much rugby for quite a few years

@taniwharugby what the fuck is this shit? They've got room for SB and a real greenhorn and an out of form CC and BB but nothing for one of the best backs over the last two years in SS???
Foster special. Sooner we’re rid of the muppet the better.
-
@KiwiMurph and I still maintain, the ref got that wrong. BB was perfectly legal in what he did.
-
@taniwharugby and I think that is where NZ rugby has lost. I'll never forget a series loss at home, and two losses for the first time. Hell, I still haven't forgiven Hansen for Chicago and the Lions. ABs rugby is dead if tests in-between WC are forgotten. You could see the hurt in Justin Marshall's eyes after Ireland.
-
@No-Quarter Roigard is still green? So do we play him now or in the RWC if he's seriously a contender? You know, when he's still green? We have 4 tests. 4. Before France. We still don't know who our best loose forwards are. Centres. Wings. Full back. 10. More than half the team.

Im with you brother. This stuff matters.

The crest on the front of the jersey is bigger than any name on the back.
And no one should be allowed stink the shirt out for an extended period of time.
That's why the legacy came to be.
Heroes come and go......and there is no shame in that.
But when its time to be moved on, move them on. Whoever they may be.
-
At this stage of the cycle we should have a core 12 players and then time and wiggle room for a flavour of the month , a Milner Skudder type with the hot hand (Stevenson) to be the icing on the cake.
4 games from word cup and we are still fluting around with Frizell, Beaudy, Caleb.
Its an omni shambles.
Mo'unga has won super rugby 7 years on the spin??? Is that right? And he has never been properly given the keys to the castle.
I love DMAC. He could play a blinder this week....and you know what happens next week? He is either dropped or shunted to 15 so Mo'unga gets a go.
EVERYONE has been done a disservice since 2019 including Beaudy. Backrow the same.

@MN5 And while your at it give Paekak Ex. a call
I miss Cully.

@voodoo said in Argentina v All Blacks:
Not sure the 11/10/13 axis is traditionally considered a “combo”…
Well, maybe not as I missed JB from the list...
But the point still stands: the 9-15 combo apart from 10 & 14 are pretty settled and pretty much identical when RM comes off the bench.

@Bones said in Argentina v All Blacks:
I'm not sure throwing in a bunch of rusty players instead is the answer.
You could well be right. I just referenced a comment made by someone else to get my head around Foster's selections.
-
@MN5 said in Argentina v All Blacks:
Yeah I’m seriously scratching my head by this. For a country that historically has test class players growing on trees the drop down since Kaino has retired has been baffling.
Is it that hard to find a big, scary, skilled munter to fill the void ?
We don't seem to have a decent development plan in place do we - and not just at 6?

@Canerbry said in Argentina v All Blacks:
@No-Quarter the buzz has almost reached the Roger Randle peak.
Jamie Macintosh says "Hi".
-
I seriously don't care if and when we lose this year. But, I'd hope everyone has the shackles off, play like a NZ SR Derby match and reward players in form. On that basis WJ/SS/LF/MT/SF/EN/RM/DM are regular starters.
