@Machpants which seems fair enough considering the hype around Razor in Foster's last couple of years.
The hype around Razor was beause Foster was so shit, obvs he wants the ABs to lose so he can crow - that is Grade A fluffybunny material.
You seem to be taking it a lot more seriously and reading a lot more info it than I did.
First ten times I was ho ho ho good point, however for a guy with fuck all posts, and most of them are about this, it is getting on my tits
Another cheap shot at Foster
Fuxking Chuck Norris

We are really only behind France and England at U20 level which is expected - they have the resources and playing numbers to be there consistently. SA should but they have been poor at U20 level for more than several years... and yet people crow on here that we're so shit with our 2015, 2017 U20 WC winners and multiple Bronze finalists.
The question is, with all that U20 talent, are we getting the best out of it?
Fozzie sure didn't. Had the last of Rennie's 2008-2011 golden generation of U20s spine at his disposal between 2020-2023.
The man tempered our expectations so much it had people on here convincing themselves that Foster's All Black spine of 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2015, 2017 winning U20's players had no right to beat an Ireland side in 2023 who's best ever U20's result was a runner's up in 2016.

It’s been a looooong fortnight and this thread is evidence that a weeks break between tests has allowed some imaginations to run far more wild than normal….

I've even found myself talking to JC

@stodders See I think we still lack an enforcer in the pack. We were spoilt with the likes of JC, BBBR and Kaino, but since then the cupboard has been a bit bare. Foster dabbled with Akira, then cast him adrift, and no one else has been able to fill the void. I’m hoping Finau might shape up for the role supported by Sititi, but who knows in these PC times. Similarly our midfield lacks the presence of a Nonu, deceptive ball-runner, proverbial out house with a hard shoulder, who mastered the art of the perfect cut-out pass, and he had wheels. Now Procter is a good foil for Jordie and fulfills this criteria. Use them ffs!

@Jailbreak7 if Grace had lived up to his early promise as a cross between Waldrom and Read he would've been pretty handy. Still only 24 so has time but seems to have regressed.
-
Our team has enough talent if we have clear heads and minimize mistakes we have a good chance.
Boring sentence but true.
First half England 2022 and first half Argentina 2 2024 is what we want.
AB cap on.
Huge game for Tamaiti Williams -

Strangely detached from this game and haven't got a clue how it will go. We are neither bouncing back from a loss or are coming into it perhaps a little over-confident.

The sooner we lose those collars the better

I want to see Ox and Bongi subbed before 35. Mobile AB pack needs to get them moving around, and need Andrew Brace not to allow injury stoppages to be excuse for Bok breathers,
That would give them 25 minutes before they're subbed back on and Rassie gets a 6 month ban.

Welcome back Sam. Stay healthy please.

Solid defence from the Boks
-
accidental offside? they're seldom onside and the game has barely started!
