    We entered this year super thin in a few positions because the last two years every game was a must win and the same old side rolled out.

    We have to start playing some new guys, or we will enter the next RWC with some broken old men and lots of barely-played newbs.

    Edit: and by "playing" I mean playing under red hot conditions, like in South Africa. Merely giving the next tier of players a spell or two in lighter games simply is not preparing them, or the team, properly.

    Whose to say that the new guys aren't better? We'll never know if we never give them a chance.

    You realise we have something like 45 tests before the next WC right?

    Yeah, and I also know we won a RWC with our fourth-string 1st-5 who had played 24 tests by that point. We may not even get our reserve 1st-5 to that many tests at this rate by the next RWC, given that it won't be Beauden Barrett and even Mo'unga will be 33.

    At some point we have to stop being conservative. It's not Razor's fault that Foster didn't want to try any new players, but it is his responsibility to deal with the problem.

    You want our 4th choice 10 identified before we have our first choice cemented?

    Beauden Barrett better learn how to go white baiting

    I just can’t wait for the first loss of the new coaching regime. My god are we going to hear you whinging c**ts then.

    I'm not like you, I hope the All Blacks win.

    To be honest dude, if you and others can see that on a rugby forum, I am pretty sure Razor and co are aware of the issue too.

    too many games in Welly. And this isn't the attractive one. And yet places like the Tron don't get one ... I dno't get it. Spread them around FFS

    I agree, it’s not a good look.

    But it probably shows the changing interest of NZ population. The ABs are not the religion they once were.

    The stadium capacity is probably around 10% of the local population (within an hour of the stadium roughly - that’s off the top of my head, I could be wrong by a few % points) and Argentina don’t bring away fans like in the 6 nations.

    But it is surprising that it is only at 70% capacity at this stage.

    So ... don't play 2 tests in Wellington in a year?

    The reasons for a national stadium keep adding up.

    Naming rights look good too.

    And it will stop cities building stadiums they need once every few years.

    It is argentina though. They aren't usually a great watch compared to other sides.

    I think one of problems is Olympic Games, I think they really should of moved it to afternoon game like Aus have with their test against Boks.
    Especially when you think Sky who is broadcasting the test is also doing Olympics. You certainly wouldn't get anyone probably but rusted on rugby people.

    Built slightly north of wellington so it's easy access for the whole country.

    With great training facilities nearby and even an outdoor activity arena with breweries.

    Trentham here we come!

    Not to mention jam packed with feral Hutt Munters.

    Jerry Collins stadium is a much better bet.

    Whitby, Paremata, Papakowhai, Aotea and Camborne are all outstanding spots.
