narawa
My next question is, why did they even pick him if he got sent home without playing a minute?

Confirmed now Blackadder left this morning
Excellent!
Good grief. Let’s look at this selection.
We now have two players in the squad covering 6,7,8 with Jacobson playing like a non-entity (just like the last time he was selected).
So they bring in Ethan who has not played 80mins for what feels like years, and prone to getting reinjured. All for a player that has never had a good game against the top ranked sides.
The epitome of trains like Tarzan and plays like Jane.
Assume he plays six, with savea and cane. Ireland or SA are going to eat him alive.

Utter bollocks, Blackadder trains like Tarzan and plays like Tarzan and most likely will be the difference against teams like Ireland and SA. I would say it’s one of the few good decisions that Foster has made, but it would have been Ryan who made the call.

I don't think Ethan B plays like Jane but I do have a concern over
- Lineouts (no tall loosies) and
- EB's propensity to injury.
I really suspect Ryan does not rate Akira.

Blackadder, like him or not, plays fucking hard - so the Jane comment is just plain wrong.
Picking a guy who hasn't played much footy is always questionable though. -

@Kirwan At this stage I'd just about take 'looks busy'.
How far the All Blacks have fallen.
