Average 70's + 80's Shield winning experience.

There will be no need for any overseas exemptions. Perofeta and McKenzie will be immediate options at 10, with guys likes Zarn Sullivan and Ruben Love as longer term options. Hooker might be the weakest position I can think of, with Taukei'aho, Aumua, and George Bell as the viable options.

Which, itself, would probably top France's 2011 efforts. > host RWC > beat the All Blacks with a BP > LaMarseillaiseOnAnInfiniteLoop.mp4 > noodle home against Uruguay with no BP > c'est la vie > thrash Namibia > hon hon hon hon > but let your best player get his face caved in with the score at...

idk if the Gallic chicanery even applies anymore after France France'd themselves against Uruguay. Italy could eliminate them with a win...

All more than a little boring atm. Just don't pass 100. Absolutely no need for that, just let Italy have a run with the ball ~4 mins.

Now to carefully manage proceedings so the score is comfortable but Italy have enough confidence to upset France. And sort out the defensive discipline :mad:

Also lets pls not do a France, keep it professional, and get the most important players off at HT or close to it.

This all just seems needlessly risky to me. Just take the three and go to halftime.

Good to see the All Blacks finally back to brutally ending the world's hopes and dreams for naught more than the giggles.

Our Blacks when? Assuming Nepo or Ofa don't get red carded for some dumb af play

As I understand it, Italy play more of a fast-and-loose style which I doubt will be as effective against the ABs as they'd hope. And, as much as they ran France close in the 6N, they also imploded against Wales, which suggests they lack consistency and some belief. They have gone for a 6-2...

Roigard is good. Great even. Bigly hugely great. Who knows wtf McKenzie will do though. Hopefully Beauden sticks to kicking from the backfield - like the first half against France - and doesn't try to unleash his popgun kicks from the frontline - like the second half against France. Honestly...

So, for all of your footballing intellectuals, if you're going to run the good old Eagles not-maul on 4th-and-whatever, why use the QB instead of a wildcat formation with an RB taking the direct snap? Or go full beefiness and chuck a linesman in there, or something equally nonsensical. In other...

I've seen this one before. Apparently the RFU stats are sus as hell because they counted every kid who participated in any rugby private equity module as a "player".
