I think you could argue that is where we lost the game.

I was convinced that Carter Gordon would be our 10 to the 2027 RWC, and look how that turned out. These are young men, their future is not set in stone.

I don't disagree with any of that, BUT my take on Edmed is that he doesn't strike me asbeing totally confident in himself, and he is most probably one of those guys who get slowly better with more exposure. The end of next season under Larkham will answer the question of whether he has a...

It's a patch of dirt. The rest of it is about scaring the horses before the race.

I'm with TSR on this one. Although I do think it is more than discipline but it is a big problem. We have seen this 1st half issue a few times this year and it would be a huge issue for Joe. TSR mentioned the aerial battle where we were much better earlier this season. Add to that the D which I...

didnt notice that last season but I take your word for it.

Does anyone have any ideas why Foketi is out of the picture?

I read that Len has a badly cut knee that is not healing as quickly as hoped. He is a critical component of the team to play AB's and I agree he should be rested and fixed prior to the Bledisloe.

I'm stuffed why you think he is a good captain. The team in the 1st half needed him to pull them together and get their 'arses into the game'. We have to wait for Joe to do it at halftime. The biggest impact we have is the bench, which appeared almost like a new team. Bell should start as...

So, let's get the good bit out of the way, excellent win against all thrown dice. Breakdown remains weak, with little support for McRight and no attempts at counter ruck. Harry stayed out of most of them ????? Defence was poor to lousy in the first half, if we let them run again in Sydney, all...

I suspect it's not poor discipline ie getting yellow carded etc but as I see it more about giving away silly penalties. I think he would be very useful on the bench against AB's, where we will need more grunt.

If we let them run, they will put us under huge pressure. They are quick across the board inc one prop who made most or 2nd most T/O's v ABs

I think Tizzano is a good call for ARG, they are quick, and they beat NZ in breakdown TO''s and speed to BD. Might end up with 2 x 7's on the field.

Congrats Dan, that makes 2 of us.

I think some of them might be better suited to AB games.
