    I just hope Fifita remembers to hit a few more rucks, as that seems his big problem, he doesn't seem to be overly confident of his job, when he is he will be very good.

      Maybe Rieko was this mysterious 23rd player in the match-day squad?

      Are you Michael Cheika?

      @nzzp surely then he'd be wondering what happened to jersey 24?

        loved the quote from Hansen that was something like

        yeah, he had one of his trademark big runs, and one of his trademark not passing at the end

        sends a good message 😄

            not sure -- just saw a glimpse a couple of days ago. The week has been ...interesting, just had a chance to actually sit down and read the Fern now. So - you're probably right

              Saturday shaping as ABs v French Development XV. This from coach (courtesy of Google Translate):

              To face the All Blacks, the new generation, which seems to have a form of carefreeness, can it be an asset?

              Guy NOVES: "We'll see on Saturday (smile). I think we have to start a day. So these young people have this opportunity, one has to know how to seize it. We only get what we deserve. After that, the context is complicated because it's still the best team in the world. We will try to be tolerant in our assessments. I consider that they have nothing to lose. They must display their qualities, their cheek, their carefreeness. We believe that this can be an asset. So it's up to us to allow them to free themselves in a complicated context.

                    Ha ha

                    The Akira for the Maori team theory was correct.

                    He replaces Whitelock after his Maori commitments are over.

                    Welll done to those who put forward the theory.

                        So the official report that JK has 'gone home' were off the mark. He has gone to his homies instead.
                        A few nights being wined and dined on the expenses of some French club recruiters......?

                                        Can you not kick the ball in the ruck? I thought feet on the ball were fine.
