yeah, yeah I know that, but MY player was amazing! Didn't you see them!
I thought all the All Blacks played good. But how good was Newell, Williams, Bell, Scott Barrett, Darry, Blackadder, Hotham, Reece

Made to look good by their North Island teammates...

@nostrildamus He does, just thought playing for the Blues may have worked against him.

ACT Crusader seems as forgiving as he is open-minded..

Only others would be so provincial…

And some of our props were shown up around the field by their replacements, boy we are lucky to have these 4, now to find more locks..
I’m assuming Newell is a terrific scrummager because he offers absolutely nothing else, even by the less than impressive standards of recent AB props.
When was the last time you saw Ox Nche, MM, Bongo, Dan Cole et al running through, over and around blokes and putting their centres through half gaps off tips?

@Frank said in All Blacks vs Fiji:
Can either Reiko or Clarke play 14, or can both only play 11?
With Clarke and Reiko you've got two big, very quick wingers.
With Proctor at 13, you've you got his provincial partnership with Jordie and a center who really looks to feed his wingers. Tempting, but probably won't happen.Telea is a better 14 than 11.

Calm down Lats, I’m not expecting miracles. Just some basic competency.

I'm not the one tightening my knickers over FN.

Hardly ’tightening knickers’ Lats, just an observation on a particular player which tends to happen quite frequently on here.

Only watched extended highlights but Proctor's ability to straighten the line and distribute gave me something of a horn.

The big question is whether TJP is fit, as then they have a selection decision to make.
So my question above was answered, and it wasn't what most of us would have expected.
Ironically, if TJP wasn't injured in the 1st test vs England I don't think Ratima gets the opportunity to show the difference a quick pass makes compared to Christie.
