    When has a captain led the haka in recent times? I don't recall GOAT or Read ever leading it, Cane didn't, Ardie hasn't I don't recall. It was almost always Aaron Smith in recent times. I always thought it was a player with Maori blood that led it

    Good to see Blackadder taking all precautions

    He’s heading to the Civic Centre after training to do Pagliacci

    Billy leads all the hakas for the Canes, even before TJ. That would be pretty cool for him on debut.

    Generally the senior Maori player does it?

    Billy lead the Canes haka even when TJ was in it. I’d say if Barrett doesn’t do it for the ABs this week then Billy will.

    Richie McCaw was slow, he was still effective

    Mary Holah was slow.

    McCaw wasn't

    I’m cracking up at the ‘Steve Hansens education with him’ line. What ‘education’ could he possibly give about the gym ?

    I'm really liking that loose forward trio. Probably better balanced than the first two tests IMO. Sititi coming off the bench for impact will be awesome.

    By balance you mean three 7.5s ?

    It will be interesting to see who goes where when Sititi comes on. Does Savea move to 7? Blackadder can't be a realistic option at 6 if he isn't starting there.

    Only really comes into play at scrum. Sititi could even pack at 6 for defensive scrums and 8 when ABs want a hard carry.

    Does the Fern technology permit a poll on how many minutes Niggles will manage before taking a ‘knock’?

    but he'll take one for the team, according to Razor, at 110%.

    Solid side. Nothing much between this and the side that played England

    @antipodean I'm not a fan of Jordie at 12 anyway. Think he is better utilized off the bench imo. Don't think ALB is the answer either. Think he is past his best at international level now.

    I am glad there has been whole sale changes. Give the full squad a go IMHO. we have to build a squad of about 35 - 40 good hardened players. We need depth because the injuries these days are happening all the time. Look at Jorden and Roygard. they are both missed and we need the depth to replace those players. don't get me wrong if the player has been given a few chances and they are not up to it then Sayonara . looking forward to this test to C what some of the new guys can do.
