    If Razor is to make his mark on this team, he will need to cull several of the old guard for the upcoming EOYT, TJ and Cane being the 1st 2, plus a few others that must surely be looking at the exit, but Razor needs to regain his ruthlessness and show he's the head coach.

    EOYTs should not be farewell tours. Unless you are a HC that wants to get yourself or your assistants fired

    I don't think he can add value to the younger players like Cane could.

    Why not? His work ethic, dedication and guts are on a par at least.

    Yeah seconded. I always find it weird when guys who, you know, aren’t actually All Blacks or part of the All Black set up make statements like this. How the hell would any of us really know ?

    It’s like me making claims about TJ cos I happen to see him at Whitby New World quite a bit

    Yeah, agreed, but we're looking pretty good at 9 with Ratima and the likely return of The World's Greatest Halfback Ever for the EOYT.

    He's staying in France.

    In the same vein they shouldn't also be development tours. If the coach thinks players are the best for the job and they're leaving at the end of the year then that's really no different than selecting them for the RC or July tests.

    TJP was a very good SR player but there was a reason TKB was preferred as Smith's backup at the 2015 RWC.

    Good summary.

    Happy for Perenara that his last home test is a sold out home town ground.

    Always thought he had the character for 10, but did not see him when he (infrequently?) played at 10 there for the Canes.

    Eh? The 9 jersey is all guys in what.... single digits in terms of tests? DP is CC Cane at the moment and covered by 2 other experienced guys.

    Gold. Did the supervisor come rushing over with their coupon card?
