@MN5 If you don't bring a mongrel or two to the backrow fight, don't be surprised if the other dogs win. 😉
Those two have a lot going for them but I don't think 'mongrel' is among them.

@KiwiInLondon Well he's playing super rugby and I'm sure even the most staunch of Canes fans @Canes4life and @Winger will disagree with you on that one.
Brett Cameron is not even close to being better than Plummer or McKenzie. He shat the bed big time in that semi loss against the Chiefs.

I have been a fan of Ethan Blackadder but to see him barrelled over by the ball carrier in the incident where he nearly got a yellow was stark.
Cane, Collins, Kaino et al would have emptied that fella, or at least stop him dead in his tracks.
And then it WOULD have been a yellow.
Being a pussy, kept him on the field. Gardner used slightly different words, but... that was what he meant. -

You've never seen an All Black bumped off before?

That was forward on forward, but looked like man vs boy

So does Denton vs McCaw.
It takes a hard
ZimbabweanScotsman to knock over the GOAT -
Huge game Argentina 2. Big ramifications re fan support.
The Argentinians have the edge in leadership and passion.
Dig deep boys. -

It gives Dave Denton something to tell the grandkids about

@sparky two marshmallows who have had plenty of opportunities and did nothing? No thanks
Seems to me people forget Akira has had good games in Black and proved this year he can focus and play a tight hard game.

Chiefs loosies interesting.
JB - Proctor and Ratima- DMac makes sense. -
Beaudy got massive raps for changing the game against England.
He basically made a line break outside Maro Itoje and inside the oil tanker Freddie Steward who actually had his back to him and was marshalling the outside man.
People were talking like it was Christian Cullen incarnate.

Chiefs loosies interesting.
JB - Proctor and Ratima- DMac makes sense.The intention was moreso just to have round pegs in round holes.
But I like it even more now that there is a built in cohesion factor.
I wanted Finau to tackle and catch lineouts. Cane to Tackle.
Sititi to carry.Cortez to suck in their D with the odd snipe and buy Damien some time , with quicker ball an added plus.
Grunt at 12. The hot hand at 13.
A ball carrier at 11.
Pace at 15. (For me this is non negotiable).
The status quo is not good enough and something has to change.

Play like the Blues and half our problems will be solved, and select players who can deliver on that game plan. The problem with NZ rugby is this constant need for mobility, and as a result we ignore our bigger athletes. I wonder if Cunningham-South would have even been considered for the ABs had he remained in NZ. Probably not, they would have said that he's too slow etc. Need a shift in mindset, we need more power athletes going forward.
