How good was Roigard on his first game back? Notised DP being taken off, hopefully nothing serious.Generational talent.
Doesnt have Smiths pass (who does) but christ he is good with ball in hand.
What I like is how understated and effective in virtually every aspect, must be a nightmare for defenders given all the options he has.

Can't wait for Holland to get into the ABs so I can make some Dutch Oven references.

Image how great he'll be regarded after he's started his second Test at 9, this time against top opposition.....
Talent for sure, but let's not get too carried away or raise expectations.
You can blame @Canes4life for that
Haha why can’t we get carried away? Roigard is showing early career form as good as some of our top ABs. International footy is different obviously but the signs are great.
We’re New Zealanders, we’re not supposed to show emotion. This would never have happened in Pinetrees day

@pakman I wasn’t analysing anything. It was from the conversation I had with my source. But I can’t exactly ask him every player in every team and then I leak it on the fern. I think he’ll work out where it’s coming from.
From what we talked about it’s all pretty settled. They want experience on the tour. Apparently Sam Cane has been amazing around the squad. -

Roigard is the Chuck Connors of rugby. He doesn't actually pass the ball. He simply moves his hands and the universe does the rest 😎

@Victor-Meldrew 😂😂 is that Chuck Norris you’re talking about.

@Landers92 Have you got the Hollandaise Sauce?
-
@BerniesCorner he’s in the ABXV

@nostrildamus how good is that play on words ? Dam good I say.
-
Roigard, Savea, Sititi and DMac are good running options.

Mate, his talent is obvious.
I rate him just above DuPont at the moment. 😉

Considering our locks have actually been quite good this year, not necessarily a need to chuck Holland in straight away, but I can see him debuting v Japan, then joining the NZ XV, then potentially linking back up with the ABs after to get him in the environment...

@SBW1 said in All Blacks EOYT:
@MN5 Would that put Anton Segner in a similar situation?
I don’t even know who that is sorry
German Blues Loosie.
And no that isnt a Teutonic concept synth poppy punk band. -
@nostrildamus He played pretty well in the Final v the Chiefs.

Haha not bad from you.
Got tagged above earlier too for any other squad chat but haven’t heard a lot so far. Things seem tight lipped this far which leads me to believe there won’t be a lot/if any changes other than Roigard added.
Only thing I have been told is not to expect all 3 of Plummer, Perofeta and Love. Its expected only 2 of them will be named in the AB squad with the 1 missing out to be in the AB XV.
