Just been told Damian McKenzie is going to be playing for La Rochelle

@family-man DMac not going on the EOYT then. Wonder if that means Mo’unga is on his way back for 2025.
-
Hmmm I heard Mo'unga was back in 2026.

I find it funny that a player that failed to win two World Cups is all of a sudden going to be our savior.
-
@Canes4life Well if DMac leaves then Mo'unga certainly would be needed

Haven't read anyone say that. He might be a good pick for the Crusaders though.

If that is the case Plummer needs some time running the cutter against Aussie. We need to take stock now

@family-man probably why Leon McDonald's bailed out.

100% if we are going to build depth we need to start giving guys minutes instead of persisting with players that are unlikely to feature at the next WC.

A few scrappy minutes here and there doesn't count either. Look at Rassie, he's giving his squad serious minutes and will reap the rewards

Too many Crusaders-pilled pundits

The AB coach and NZRU have made it clear that they want Mo’unga back.
You can see why Dmac would look overseas. If I were him and knew I was inline to be 2nd choice, at his age I’d go cash in too. Essentially that’s what it seems Mo’unga has been able to do - get at least two high paying years overseas and seemingly hold his position in the ABs by default.

He hardly holds it by default. Fact is the guy who has stepped into replace him hasn't stepped up enough to claim the jersey.

I think that’s fair. But if everyone knows he’s only holding it by default, I’m not sure that inspires confidence.
What I can say with 100% confidence is that I was at the WC final, and the Boks dealt with Mo’unga with relative ease - once Dmac came on and started using his direct play and passing they were having kittens. Despite the poor kicking by others and the RC, I maintain that if they’d brought Dmac on earlier we would have got home. His passing is the key to unlocking a rush D and we should be designing our attack around it.
