    Don't know if this has been shared but I quite enjoyed it.

    Some stuff in there I didn't know.

    Bledisloe Cup

    Bledisloe Cup

    How a century of sporting rivalry descended into drama, scandal and subterfuge.

    @nzzp Yup. I want you to thrash everyone but the boks. Natural order of things. Just wish rugby could revert to the mean faster.

    An All Black pleased to be back in the team. Shit, what a scoop.

    @chris-b what the actual fuck does John Hart know about the midfield?

    or the back 3 for that matter

    he shouldn't have had to know anything about that. Any combination of Wilson, Cullen, Lomu, Osbourne and Tana should have murdered pretty much anyone

    Pretty generous listing old mate Glen in amongst that bunch

    Not sure you recall 1995. Measures up with the best of them

    And then came Cullen and made him look ordinary. Pretty unfair because he was an awesome player. Hart did select him over Lomu a few times on the wing so he did still have a decent career.

    @akan004 Their replacement is a bloke I've never heard of. No doubt he, like the bloke he's replacing, would have preferred to be lining up in black this evening.

    @antipodean Jermaine Ainsley is a Kiwi - the son of All black prop Joe McDonnell.

    I dunno if this was mentioned in all the nerd rage about old teams, 'cos I scrolled through that, but kick off is 9:45, not 10:05 (2145NZT)

    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/rugby/news/article.cfm?c_id=80&objectid=12109070&ref=rss

    Reiko Ioane must be pushing 7 foot. That's Ardie Savea he's standing close to.

    Ardie should make the move to the midfield. Laumape looks like a halfback next to him.

    Welcome to the club bro

    A 10/12 axis of Izzy and Ardie could’ve been something special.

    With Messam at 13 , if you go back to his 7s days .

    @kiwiinmelb might as well chuck Vito on the wing. Zinny can play fullback.

    @bones Hayman still looks like he could pack down at the back?

    Weather is going to custard in Sydney - windy and looks like the heavens will open up soon.

    Hopefully he is as good a scrummager as his dad ...

    Osborne was sensational. His step was just insane - electric at the back in the 95 RWC. Just unlucky to come along with Cullen, Lomu and Wilson. Fark, tough break eh

    Yeah, he was awesome. Thought he was there long term but Cullen just blew him out of the water in 96. Thems the breaks, but he had a decent AB career. He was preferred wing when the ABs won the first ever series in SA.
