RIP they are going to get destroyed, one of the weakest babaa's team i've seen.
They don't look that weak to me.
Cue the praise of Razor when they don't get destroyed.....
Ohhhh shit I hadn't figured out why he was saying that. Thanks!
It's definitely a handy side to face a B/C team.

Lots of capped Baabaas players. 18 of them I think. So far more experience than the NZ XV shorn of Aumua Harmon TJ and Telea. And smart work by Razor and OGara filling all the last spots with La Rochelle players to bring familiarity all round.
Should be an interesting match.

O'Gara, Robertson both interested in Eng job
Barbarians coaches Ronan O'Gara and Scott Robertson have both expressed their interest in the England job when Eddie Jones leaves his role as boss after the 2023 Rugby World Cup.

@kiwi_expat Some sauces say it's more or less a done deal that Razor and O'Gara will be in charge of England after the 2023 RWC.

@sparky ABs on Prime only (should be a full match replay) and ABs XV on Viaplay only.

The Barbarians gig is just a sideshow, the primary reason Razor travelled to London was to meet with RFU.

I'll see if I can get a copy of the Baabaas match if anyone's interested.

Roigard will really benefit from regular game time at Super Rugby level. He's got a good skillset but he needs to quicken some aspects of his game up - could see vs Ireland A he didn't have the time and space he was offered at NPC level.
As for Aumua and Harmon, unfortunately they are needed in the AB camp in case of a late injury. Can't be in two places at once.
Aumua sure.
Harmon, no. Sotutu could easily come in if there was an injury to a loosie. Even if the injury was to a 7 there'd still be sufficient cover. -

No that’s speculation,Razor has always made it clear he would like the AB job after the 2023 WC,
He has also held talks with the NZR before he flew to USA to attend a coaching seminar in San Diego 2 weeks ago,then he travelled to England for the Babas gig. -
@Chris yes, it was a joke.

At game. Bryce Heem scores!

@Jailbreak7

I'm just watching now in bits and Stevenson gave a backhanded SBW special that was very sweet.
Just watching now into 50th minute as the Baabas take a great speculative try to take the lead 26-24. DMac trying his heart out but looks a lone soldier going back (not sure where 15 was).
Looks more exciting than the AB Scotland game to be honest.
