@No-Quarter said in All Blacks 2025:
(broken record) The most dominant loose trio we have had at Super level in the last 5 years is Akira Ioane, Dalton Papali'i and Hoskins Sotutu, and it's not even close. Not one of those players have had a look in due to this weird fucking anti-Blues bias that these idiot Crusaders coaches have. Then we wonder why our loosies get smacked around every test. These morons made their bed, they can lie in it now. A loss to Wales is needed so we can move these clowns on and try and install professional coaches that don't act like fucking children when selecting their teams.
Remember when Akira's detractors used to use he doesn't run on to the ball as a way to attack him despite the fact he most often got over the advantage line?
He'd be fucking perfect for this team as that's what we do with nearly ever attacking phase, no one runs on to the ball because they're just there to set up a ruck.

@MN5 I’d be quite interested in a hypothetical where we lose the series to the Boks, Razor retains his job, and Mo’unga is Beauden level - what happens then?
An absolute plethora of caps that his form doesn't warrant

Richie doesn't want those caps, he wants at most half a dozen WC caps and a fuck-tonne of yen.

Smart dude, you used the word plethora. Thank you.
It means a lot.

The 2026 test season should start with Ardie Savea being hanged at Eden Park. His body put on permanent display at NZRU headquarters. A warning to all.

I just realised he stole one of mine as part of that. Imagine plagiarising one of my rants!

Kudos to you having the time and dedication to get busy on multiple forums. Even better you recognise your work, I probably would have argued against them.
I don't quite know how the reddit works, does it say they're a drua fan?

@BerniesCorner said in All Blacks 2025:
we do have a forward pack that can compete with anyone
Except England and Sth Africa - and poss. Argentina.
What's worrying is Ryan has done a great job with the tight 5, players selected by Foster have been developed and new talent like Holland brought into the team - yet they still go to shit for extended periods regularly.
There's something very wrong with the headspace/culture of this team - and it isn't getting any better
The coaches and the leadership group are hopeless. Anyone responsible for the loosies, the backline, and defence can fucken give themselves and uppercut and jog on. If I had my way I'd bin the lot of them including Razor who must carry the can for selection. Realistically I'd like to see him kneecapped in a coaching sense, lose all his assistants bar Ryan, water down his authority in areas of selection and overall game plan and philosophy
-
My answer to Razor is you're best is not good enough

I would love to see Etene Nanai Seturo and Caleb Tangitau on the flanks
ENS with his footwork and size would bring something completely different not to mention a tremendous left boot which is weapon and Tangitau with his speed would compliment a slick back 3 with Jordon
Leicester Fainga’nuku at 13 and Quinn Tupaea at 12 and Ruben Love at 10 ,Roigard at 9
That would be my dream backline ,Jordie Barrett ,D Mac and Dylan Pledger as reserve cover
I know Ruben Love’s selection at 10 would turn a few heads ,but imo i believe his future lies at 10 -
