Most interesting point of selection for me Scott Barrett at 6.
I thought it would happen, but it's confirmation we want to play very physical and tight with more emphasis on forward power than in previous years.
We have come full circle right back to RWC semi again.
Scooter at 6 and the dual playmakers 10/15Hopefully Einstein was wrong
Don't forget that they benched Sam Cane and that the game plan was try and find magical fake space on the edges.
Hansen won in 2015 and well done that man, but he should have been gone by 2019.

And then his deputy (Foster) who was involved in that selection process, gets the head coach gig and gives the captaincy to the bloke they benched for the biggest game in 4 years.
Such muddled up thinking from 2017 Lions tour onwards.

He knew he should go in 2017 but the NZRFU convinced Shag to stay. Then they doubled down by picking Fozzie, setting us back for an entire RWC cycle

A reserve 9 who was launched out of the squad as yesterdays man and is now back in the squad.
Makes perfect sense to me. Fakatava getting injured reduced his options for the 3rd halfback role. Christie wasn't that flash last week & TJP grabbed his chance & did pretty well.

Have to give de Groot credit for getting into the Aussies at Eden Park. He fucking smashed some guy, and that Aussie got up and had a massive whinge to the ref. de Groot starting going "waa, waa, waa" and did that pantomimed wiping tears motion where you pinch you thumb and index finger and rotate them back and forth at the corner of your eye.
Now if he can do that to those fluffybunnies Genge and Sinckler ...

@canefan said in All Blacks v England:
I'd prefer Reece swapped in for DH. Do we really need 2 MF subs? Perhaps if DH had been run at 15 last week we could see if he was any good there, but instead we'll run the risk of having him front against a vastly superior opponent in a place we don't generally win easily instead...
It’s really average isn’t it. 9 games out from a World Cup we are fielding that slop.
There is a DMAC shaped hole on that bench and Will Jordan nailed on for 15.
I think Beaudys days are numbered.
I’m gonna beat that dead horse. Shaun Stevenson...

@canefan said in All Blacks v England:
BBBRs 100th test. Coming off his suspension I hope he comes out firing, and if we play a more direct game plan to set a platform as we did vs Wales that will give us a great chance to win
South Africa bludgeoned England last November but lacked the incisiveness to turn their overwhelming territory and possession into points and scoreboard pressure. England have the capability to score something out of nothing. Almost like a role reversal between NZ and England

Na, EOYT 2016 is where Hansen started to slide.

@cgrant said in All Blacks v England:
The lineout battle should be interesting. England has only two jumpers. With four LO specialists, I hope the ABs will compete on each opposition's throw.
England won't kick it out unless they have to and will contest the breakdown ferociously. I expect ABs to bring their maul to the party, especially if the weather continues like it is.

I reckon they go to work on Itoje. Start screaming and arm flapping...

Please God no! I hate Itoje's antics. Brilliant player, but utterly distasteful sportsman at times.

Regardless of the team.
We owe these kunts a towelling.
Into them like rabid dogs.
I want to see kapa o pango. Exocet clean outs, and Nigel’s in their debenture seats crying into their Pimms and Diet Coke.
Let’s fucking have it.
Less exocet cleanouts. PSDT did one last week. Didn't work out too well.
-
I like Sotutu on the bench, along with Bower and Sami gives us some good ball carrying up front.
Only two issues with the starting XV, I would’ve started Sami and Reece.
As for the bench, not a huge fan of Nepo in that role. This is the second time ALB and Havili have been on bench together which means Ioane is moving to the wing at some point.

I just want to see serious mongrel. Not backward steps.
Genge put on his arse.
Sinkler mauled over the advertising hoardings.
Marcus Smith asking his agent to reconsider the love island contract.Farrell renewing his truck driving license.
