didn't play SA in 2020, played an underprepared weakened SA in 2021 and Australia ranked 8th and 9th in the world during Foster's tenure.

They should have followed that up with a "RWC Champions - 4 v 3" on the next underpass.

@W32 is that a new sign or is that the pic from just after the RWC?

Even if re-hashed, quality trolling, win or lose, that sign will burn.

@darylmitchell sounds like Razor’s cock firmly in your throat. Overrateddddddd

Salivating at the thought of Samipeni introducing himself to Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu.

I read an article yesterday from some Stuff scribes (Hinton, Goile, Cully) where they listed their team to play SA. They each choose a different centre.

Hinton, Goile, Cull

The Post

this one? Quite a few different takes in that article.

[ACT Crusader]

Goile: Beauden Barrett, Will Jordan, Anton Lienert-Brown, Jordie Barrett, Caleb Clarke, Damian McKenzie, Cortez Ratima, Wallace Sititi, Ardie Savea, Ethan Blackadder, Tupou Vaa’i, Scott Barrett (c), Tyrel Lomax, Codie Taylor, Tamaiti Williams.
Reserves: Asafo Aumua, Ofa Tu’ungafasi, Fletcher Newell, Sam Darry, Sam Cane, TJ Perenara, Rieko Ioane, Mark Tele’a.

Cully: Beauden Barrett, Will Jordan, Billy Proctor, Jordie Barrett, Caleb Clarke, Damian McKenzie, Cortez Ratima, Wallace Sititi, Ardie Savea, Samipeni Finau, Tupou Vaa'i, Scott Barrett (c), Tyrel Lomax, Codie Taylor, Tamaiti Williams.
Reserves: Asafo Aumua, Ofa Tu’ungafasi, Fletcher Newell, Sam Darry, Ethan Blackadder, TJ Perenara, Harry Plummer, Rieko Ioane

Hinton: Will Jordan, Mark Tele’a, Rieko Ioane, Jordie Barrett, Caleb Clarke, Damian McKenzie, TJ Perenara, Ardie Savea, Sam Cane, Ethan Blackadder, Sam Darry, Scott Barrett (c), Tyrel Lomax, Codie Taylor, Tamaiti Williams.
Reserves: Asafo Aumua, Ofa Tu’ungafasi, Fletcher Newell, Tupou Vaa’i, Luke Jacobson, Cortez Ratima, Beauden Barrett, Anton Lienert-Brown.

Cully’s forward pack is extremely ambitious. Hinton’s backline seems unlikely.

What they agree on: 1-4, Ardie starting, 10-12, Will Jordan starting, 16-18,

Regardless of who you agree with it is indicative of where the Allblacks are at the last few years.

No consensus backrow or centres for example.

Childish antics with players careers and their livelihoods. Ten year ban.

We’ll know tomorrow.

[mariner4life]

those Stuff guys don't get paid for that do they? Some of those teams would look strange even if they were posted by some of the bigger mentalists on here.

Did two of them really promote Sititi and move Savea to 7?

These long breaks between tests are even messing up the "journos"
