TBF, no matches matter until the return of Atua Mo'unga in late 2026.
Good to see you’ve finally got the memo.
We all got the memo the day Combover started crying about him about a week into his tenure.
It's pretty....crafty...
From day one set out that your employer isn't giving you the tools to succeed and therefore any failure is laid out at their feet.

@brodean Banana skin days are long gone. This is a must front up or get embarrassed fixture since 2020.
There should be no complacency, they have beaten us recently

This game is shaping up as a bit of a banana skin game for the ABs with the amount of injured players, players coming back from injury, inexperienced, and players flying in late - and most importantly the unpredictable nature of the Pumas.
Add to that , the natural assumption from many that the allblacks will improve this year and the draw is easier than last year , I see this season as a bit of a banana skin if we aren’t careful .

Some of the current squad selections and player management suggest otherwise.

The Argies are big physical boys, and we will rely on speed and skill
Reminds me of a scene from Swingers

If we can't front physically, we will be the bitch team

They can't start Jordie at 13 bloody hope not.
After right wing, it’s his next best position….

This just came up on my feed. What a try by a 6 we let go too soon IMO.
-
@Canes4life good try. But if we had backs that chased and tackled like those in blue and white stripes, they would be called “useless”

He wasn't helped by getting done over by the Hurricanes who continually selected Brad Shields at blindside in preference to him.

More a case of getting our best players on the park at the time, Fifita could play lock aswell and formed a pretty good combination with Fatialofa. He was selected in the ABs as the next 6 after Kaino but I feel like they gave up on him too early. Could have been a weapon if they persisted with him IMO, especially when you compare him to the guys we have now.

Similar obstacles with James Blackwell in that position.
