Bones can have it, he's never budged on his dislike for Will Jordan.
Jet can have it next year if he carries on his Cam Roigard love/watching Beauden Barrett was like playing him on playstation/Fletcher Newell's dad bought a tear to my eye when he flew to Joburg for his debut/there's a Blackadde sized hole in the team (even his enthusiasm has waned there).
Oh, and who was the guy who kept writing novels on Razors coaching CV starting with the Sumner social team? Was it @kiwi_expat ? He doesn't seem to be around anymore.

that's the thing. I don't think it's dislike - just recognition that his weaknesses get exposed at the top level. He's not in the media (and some poster) circlejerk.
WJ is a good 14. He's a bang average fullback at test level.

Oh I agree that he's no great fullback but a far better winger, but when bones talks about him, there's a bit more extra hate towards him haha.

It's got to be someone for Sotutu love, surely? It's a rare AB thread that doesn't eventually work its way round to how he was "shafted".

And I recall @sparky coming up with some absolutely ridiculous superlatives for him, how he’d change English Rugby and other such nonsense.

If he goes, the Poms might end up with a back row made up 2/3 of kiwi players

@MN5 I think Hoskins Sotutu is a damn good player and could be transformation for England in the same way Wallace Sititi has been for the All Blacks this year.
Ideally both Hoskins Sotutu and Wallace Sititi will be part of the ABs backrow next year.. Ardie can shift back to 7 or take the bench spot to accommodate them.
