Quite frankly our forwards are becoming terrific.
Our backs are chaos. -

@pakman you still suffering from jetlag? That's hardly phenomenal insight fella! Or have you forgotten Aaron Smith already?
- Yes! 2. Nugget is no longer wearing Black.
We never should have let Frogs come away with win.

From viewing, I find it hard to lay that at the players feet.

@canefan Would his departure likely coincide with Richie Mounga's return to New Zealand? What is actually happening, is he coming back late next year or in 2026?
RM? I don't believe anything has been confirmed. But Razor has made no secret of the fact he would love him back. IIRC he is contracted until end of 2025
Given our lack of stock at 10, I would like him back too. He won't suddenly make the AB unbeatable, but every bit helps.

Probably likely to have a net negative impact on the stocks to be honest.

His contract runs through the 2025/26 season which ends around May/June 2026. As it stands, he would be able to return to NZ in mid 2026.
I’m guessing NZR are wanting to negotiate something there to get him back earlier than that.

Let's stick with BB then, because that's going well.

And ignore DMac, Plummer, etc. Right? Because super form is no indication....

DMac is worth sticking with. Plummer, well he's going so we won't know. It's debatable if the Blues would have played him at 10 anyway. After that the cupboard is bare.

@Crazy-Horse Jacomb looks a good prospect

From the little bits we have seen of him, yeah he is one to watch. Shame we won't see a lot of him again next season if DMac remains uninjured.

You've surpassed Victor defending Foster. Kudos.

In what way? RM coming back adds to the depth of our game. I'd say the same about everyone who has buggered off. I'd like to see them all back.

I'm sure the blues would've been reticent to play their ten who won them SR at ten. Imagine they'll probably ditch most of their starting players.

Are BB and Perofeta not in the squad? I must have missed them leaving. If they are still in the squad, like I said, it's debatable as to whether they will start Plummer at 10.

Just like this year. You're bang on, just like the saders.

Huh? What have the Saders got to do with it?
