We 100% should be changing our eligibility rules to allow him to play again.
The missed touch finder was chef's kiss for me.
WTF is this?!!!
I had to go to the youtube channel to read the comments to see if it was a pisstake, but they're all deadset serious in their praise of this "masterclass".
Fuck me.
Maybe it means something else in Japanese

Your anti-cantab bias makes me sick.
You just can't see his obvious class.
He's really taking on high-quality world class players in that competition. The try assist from the terrible non-tackle by Charlie Lawrence is a clear example.
He only had one missed touch and one pass to no-one in those highlights.
He also kicked goals at 71% (5/7) - that's the quality we need to get us over the line at a WC.
You’re probably right. On second viewing, I also noticed he threw a bunch of skip passes that skipped 2-3 guys each time, off BOTH hands too. Extraordinary.
Each time the attacker caught the ball under immediate pressure and didn’t make any ground, but that’s hardly Richie’s fault.

For a guy who’s Dutch I suppose Holland is a logical surname.

@Crazy-Horse Have you not received the fern memo? The less you play, the higher you get rated!

Charlie Ngatai is the GOAT

@SouthernMann The founder of it, currently being held by Ethan Blackadder.

Razor offered a little bit when Wilson was doing the Highlanders preview on the Breakdown. Wilson was putting a spotlight of Holland. Razor piped up to say he isn't eligible for NZ until next year. I thought the panel missed a beat not unpicking that comment a bit more. For the All Black's coach to jump in there shows he is really interested in the player. Wilson should have allowed Razor to speak on Holland. I reckon that says he will be picked up straight away should his development continue.

Hang on, hang on - he's yet to be injured for many games the passing of each making his mythical status as the solution to all our problems even more firmly entrenched. Lets not get ahead of ourselves yet.

All Blacks star Will Jordan facing long spell on sidelines
Gutted for the young man. All the signs pointed to Razor giving him the 15 jersey for the All Blacks and now this. Does this mean we're going to have to suffer through another season of Beauden at 15 or is this a chance for someone like Shaun Stevenson?

@1kiwi Ruben Love is going to have a big year and will push for that fullback jersey aswell.
There's a few contenders. Stevenson, Zarn Sullivan, Ruben Love, I could see Jacob Ratumaitavuki-Kneepkens having a big year as well now that he has clear air on the 15 jersey in Super Rugby. Exciting stuff.
-
@KiwiMurph yeah going to be exciting to see who steps up. It's like that for many positions which should make viewing a little more intense.

I'm really hoping he gets a slot as well. If only to see how the commentators manage his moniker

Just at the Blues, Sullivan v Forbes could be a battle. Two very good players

You misread it completely. I was expressing sympathy for their schedule.
If my provisional trip goes ahead - sailing in Adriatic, bit of a tour of the Balkans and hunkering down in northern Italy ahead of an AB test then nothing short of a sudden shortage of Barolo is going to be a problem.

Very kind of you not to rub it it...

You are confusing this with another forum methinks..

It's one of those names that gets shouted as though a miracle is about to happen.

I'd imagine Robertson will stick with with BB at 15 for the first few game s to get his feet under the table. Understand that and have no problems with it.
But it'll be dissappointing if he doesn't throw the 15 jersey to one or two contenders by mid-season to see how they go.
