    I've been watching random modern ish games from the last few years on youtube, fuck me it is so annoying the amount of possession we kick away for no reward in chips and kick passes. Yes they were great even further back in time, but every team has been ready for it since mid 2010s. STOP IT!

    I'd like to see more of Jordie Barretts long kicks.

    What Razor's first All Blacks team says about new era

    "With Luke Jacobson included as loose forward cover on the bench, Robertson indicated blindside contender Ethan Blackadder and wing Caleb Clarke are carrying niggly injuries."

    Who was the original Food bill on the Fern? Was it Mark Ranby?

    How many games before Blackadder's nickname becomes Niggles?

    https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/350334308/damian-mckenzie-takes-hold-all-blacks-no-10-jersey-while-richie-mounga-looms-large

    Voerman presuming Barrett or Perofeta will start the Fiji match.

    Would there really be any reason to rest Mckenzie? There's a three week break till the next test after Fiji, and the longest run of consecutive tests is five, to finish the year.

    I can see the point of bringing another player in at 10 vs Fiji to ensure they're up to running the cutter in Robertson's scheme, but Barrett shouldn't need to have a sample game after 124 caps. If Perofeta is a fullback and to be replaced by Jordan when he comes available, neither should he.

    I see more value in continuity learning the new system, especially in a lower pressure game where more risks can be taken.

    We've still got Australia and Japan to come if we need to introduce another 10 to the game plan later.

    The English left him battered-I'd be surprised they won't try it again.

    @nostrildamus such is life in the All Blacks 10 jersey. If Dmac plays well again tomorrow night he should for sure be rewarded with a start again against Fiji. Continuity.

    If anything, rest Jordie and Reiko and run ALB and Proctor against Fiji. That way Dmac is building chemistry with others outside him, keep in mind him and ALB most likely know each others game inside out as well.

    The Fiji test is a Friday night, so a shorter turn-around for the ABs with travel.
