    Proctor and Love need to be tried out otherwise it's getting ludicrous

    There is no need now to bring all of Cane, Papalii, Jacobsen and Blackadder on the EOYT.

    There should be spots for the likes of Lakai, Akira, Sotutu.

    Cane should get a fond send off against Australia and then good luck and thanks for the memories.

    Id rather have Hotham and Ratima than TJP too.

    Rieko to the wing.

    Id be giving Narawa a proper audition too.....not sure what happened there with him??????

    Fabian Holland should travel in whatever capacity he is allowed, to train with the team and get up to speed.

    @Jet In the majority of the tests this year the management have placed a large amount of importance on experience.
    The fact is many of the younger guys are now better.
    Williams, Vaai, Sititi, Ratima, Proctor, Love ...

    The Allblacks used to be too afraid to lose.

    They would play stink but will themselves over the line.

    With 20 minutes to go these lads are looking at each other thinking "its happening again".

    The media, players and fan base are getting accustomed to dropping 4 games a year now.

    Apathy and ambivalence is enveloping the Allblacks entity.

    Even on forums such as this......nobody seems angry any more.

    Shortly we are going to have two running units in Roigard and Sititi. Things are alright.

    What do you do if you are Razor here?

    Ireland England and France away from home in 8 weeks time.

    He needs wins on the board soon to keep the wolves from the door so he doesnt look like a busted flush himself.

    But the experienced heads are letting him down. Barrett kicking the ball away week in week out, McKenzie missing kicks. The captain dropping a pass cold today while hot on attack. Two completely avoidable yellow cards today.

    I hope he knows in his heart that some of these players are finished but by the same token , Lansdowne , Twickenham and Paris are tough places to give a couple of new guys game time concurrently.

    Maybe he needs to blood some newbies against Australia. Proctor and Love come to mind.

    I think for their next edition NZ Rugby news needs to have a photo of Scott Robertson with the word ‘Guilty’ written underneath.

    Razor got a horse we can spit at?

    If Ireland, England and France beat us, which is likely on current form, and or god forbid Australia, would you want/do you think Razor would be sacked?

    Id tell the canes to start playing Love at 10 next season.

    No. Beauden is nearly finished and Jordan's best long term position could be wing.
    He deserves his chance at 15.

    @Jet things weren’t brilliant in 2004 when Henry took over. 2004 EOYT saw a changing of the guard and the emergence of the playing style that defined NZ during the purple patch of 2005-2017.

    We had a gem in Nonu. Not tall but solid AF and had wheels. CC is built similar. I know he's our 11 right now but could he be an option with JB and AJLam in the future?

    I still think Tele'a is a right wing.

    We are so damn close. We bossed them again on attack for 50 mins.

    WJ is not going to have a blinder every test but he had zero impact at all. WT looked good.

    Again just some baffling calls by the refs but AGAIN, we have to acknowledge that the pictures we are painting aren't in the refs favour and we need to take them out of the game.

    I refuse to believe we are worse than the Wallabies and Argies right now.

    What head coaches are available? We’ve still got 3 years to salvage a chance at getting out of our group….

    Let's not panic yet. We lost a whole lot of leadership after RWC23 and it will take some time to rebuild. The coaching group haven't been perfect, hopefully they will learn from missteps quickly, especially in terms of selection

    Yeah we are not going to lose the Bledisloe ,short memories the Aussies got pumped by SA at home 33-7 and 30-12 with 2 different teams the Saffers fielded then Aussies had 60 points put on them by the Argies.
    We lost 2 close games v SA in SA and could have won both ,a few panic merchants on here .
    we have blooded a lot of players and are nearly 4 years away from a WC and some people are saying we won't get out of our pool at the WC.
    Calm done take a pill and sort your shit out.

    Also the Argentina loss. 3 losses in 4 matches is well below expectations

    I agree it is but some of the BS on these threads is over the top.
    SA are the best side in the World ATM.
    We have to admit that and build a new team for the WC .
    The loss to Argentina was more shit than the 2 loses to SA in SA.

    How does it compare to what you wrote in the previous 2-3 seasons? I think the criticism has been mild
