    David Havilli will be starting 10 for the crusaders. No Burke for first part of season

    That could be his rebirth considering his style of play. Wasn't fullback his preferred position and he was made to play second five-eighth to accommodate everyone else at the Saders?

    @nostrildamus Ethan Blackadder makes about 10 tackles a year and still seems to make lot of people's ABs squads.

    But what a 10 they are! And with a hard shoulder too.

    I don't want to get into a 'is Blackadder at AB level' fight. Nobody is going to win unless we see the new version for more than a few minutes off the bench!

    I'm curious.. of the AB's off to Japan, who are heading for Deans's squad? Japan is a good option for them to recover for a year or so (let's face it it's not as tough a competition as elsewhere) and maybe they can get over some of the injuries that they're struggling with. Then they can come back, all nice and fresh for the next WC. Deans has a rep as getting players up to AB standard. (remember a certain horrible Canterbury fullback who he turned into a not bad AB)

    @canefan he won’t. Every move he make will be heavily scrutinised.
    He's all about team culture first and foremost. There won’t be the cliche that is currently there. No leadership group who have more say than assistant coaches with selections.
    Beaudy ,Brodie ,cane and Aaron smith. I wonder if that will ever come out. Or who the leak is in the team , who leaked all the team selections.

    Bahaha. Why are you pretending that there's no Cantab input in there? Poor Whitelock, Scooter, Mo, Cody just sitting in the corner with no input as the North Island clique runs the team. 😭

    Jesus, it's a troll fest in this place at the moment.

    Jordie, Rieko, Proctor, ALB, McLeod.

    So midfield sorted too, nice one.

    Havili's chances of selection may be better next season.

    He can give fullback a shot....

    He’ll struggle for game time with Will Jordan firmly ensconced there

    I really hope the last few posts are not a sign of things to come on the Fern during Razor's reign.

    I don't think @Nepia gets an automatic ban just because Razor is coach now.

    Is Ben Smith right - no drop goals at all under Foster?

    That sounds about right. Someone should do a stat, penalties awarded in kickable range, say 40m from goal, % of those that were kicked for goal during the Fozzie reign

    @KiwiMurph said in All Blacks 2024:

    Finau has a higher ceiling than Frizell in my view.

    If he played 45mins in RWC final I think he would've made at least two tackles

    did frizell only make one tackle?!

    Successfully, missed one. And they'd bag Akira for making less than 10.

    So I have no desire to rewatch this game and see for myself, but what did he actually do?
    Shouldn't he be getting through a ton of defensive work with Cane off?
    Did he hit a lot of rucks or make a ton of ball carries?

    @Gunner Looking forward to seeing the squad next year. Areas I'm most interested in is lock, 6, 10 and 15 most likely it will be Barret/Lord, Finau/Blackadder, McKenzie and the current 14. But you never know super may throw up some surprises you would hope. Maybe A.Ioane will raise his game, maybe new locks like Annandale, Mcwannell or someone else raises their game. Maybe Stevenson makes the 15 jersey his own. Lots to look forward to.

    No. Beauden got a DG against England only last year in the 25-all draw.

    Neither Mo'unga or DMac have a DG in a test though.

    Didn't BB do a droppie against the Argies?
    And it almost hit the corner flag
