@Nogusta Ce n’est pas France XV?
Je ne suis pas sûr
Cela dépend de l'équipe française qui se présentera ce jour-là!

Hypothetically, we could resolve our lack of height by playing two taller locks. Barrett is the shorter one, and if he could convert to a decent 6 that would help fix our lineout problems
I would rather see almost anyone play 6, including Vaai and Holland. If Barrett isn't a lock, he's not in the team.
@reprobate he is a swing bench forward. Those are handy in a squad.

I imagine Ennor’s extension through 2026 means he is right in contention to be named in this French series and rugby championship. Can’t imagine he would extend without holding conversations with higher ups. Just joining the dots

Is this an example of Razor being bold?

Sounding like Aumua most likely out of the French series
The teacher's pet George Bell come on down

Extra bold when he starts him ahead of Proctor

Yup. He is the injury cover who will be called in

@KiwiMurph to be fair Amua’s throwing in is real libility not that i’m saying Bells the answer either would have taken RR before both of them

Aumua was fine last year on the EoYT.
There is a lot of pressure on the Canes hooker given their lineout options. Often they had Kirifi, Lakai, and Iose as the loose forwards with two locks no bigger than 197cm.

I think I would have given Aumua some leeway after such a strong finish last test season but yes there are a number of players that have shown more than Bell
RR
McAlister

He was better than fine. Most posters were overwhelmingly positive about his impactful performance up North, including an 80 minute gem.

I reckon Big Jim is being named Monday. Saw an Instagram video with Mark Telea who is off to South Africa with Riccitelli, JRK, Sotutu and Beehre but not Tavatavanawai.

Apparently he’s in mate.

Who is Ardie Savea's agent? They did a great job of absolutely screwing NZR over and Ardie gets huge big-ups from the NZ media every week when he was mediocre for the ABs last year and his team this year while doing better than expected still missed out on the Super Play Offs and got their arses kicked by the Chiefs.
Shannon Frizzell is another player whose agent does an amazing job. Jeff Wilson bangs about how what great news a Frizzell return would be so often that I almost suspect he's on commission.
