Italy v All Blacks
-
The hype want so much around razor as the desperate desire to move on from late Hansen/foster shit. Sadly we still haven't, and razor is just carrying that torch forward. I blame Wayne Smith, he's past it but still had massive influence, and hasn't adjust to the reality of test rugby at the top today

We have too much talent for Italy, but man we are such a poorly selected and coached side right now. Surf Jesus has turned out to be a poor man's Fozzie but also with a strong bias to his own region.
Steady on.
So the 27-6 and 20-6 matches under Henry means? He pretty much picked the same side 5 months apart. Rubbish coach.
It's a funny argument when one of the premises needs to be based on the consistency of Italian rugby to compete against.

@nostrildamus Sam Cane, Ardie Savea, Beauden Barrett, ALB.
Maybe Mark Telea and Scott Barrett won't be in the starting XV.
To be honest, I think them dropping SB, even from just the captaincy, is very unlikely.

Better execution and communication between 8 and 9

@nostrildamus Unless he becomes clearly the third or fourth choice Lock.

Still Razor is learning international rugby on the job so I expect big improvements next year.
What about his assistants, are they learning as well?
I agree Ryan improved the side, but that improvement seems to be ebbing. -

Off to teach kids to play golf now.... no way it can be as frustrating as watching this lol

if Holland proves his worth the selection of locks will get interesting.
