Phil Kearns is right.
Phil Kearns: His kid had it coming.
That's harsh. Did his kid live?

I think 4 more years is currently winning. Everyone gets it no confusion and pisses off lots of people. Either that or Pocock > Hooper > McCaw

Bring Back Eddie!

All Blacks Beauden Barrett and Vaea Fifita have been ruled out of the third test against France at Dunedin's Forsyth Barr Stadium on Saturday. Highlanders and All Black loose forward Liam Squire, who picked up an injury to his shoulder on Saturday, is an unlikely starter, Foster said yesterday. -

I hope he goes well, because they should have seen this coming.

@stargazer
Being sarcastic/ironic about the UK press. One of the major UK papers famously accused NZ of poaching Kev Mealamu from Tokaroa....Isn't Oakura one of the sister islands of Tokoroa? Still, Durban probably isn't that close to either
was that Oakura from the Taranaki Islands or Oakura from the Republic of Northland?
@taniwharugby from the disparate Islands of Naki!

Squire is about as robust as Crotty.
What they do with the back row is going to be the most interesting selection this week. Cane looked like he needed a rest last week, Ardie had plenty of minutes but didn't stand out in the first two games. So did Whitelock. Fifita, Taufua and Squire injured.
So we are left with a tired Cane, Whitelock, Savea, Frizell, Todd, Hemopo and Akira.I can't see them using Akira. There is obviously a plan there. Unless they are planning on moving Cane to 6 with Savea or Todd at 7, my guess is Frizell starts with Cane and Whitelock. Savea on the bench.

Sooooooooo Fall is free to play this weekend bu Beaudy isn't.......yeah right

I'll give this backrow conundrum a little more thought over the next day or two and let you know my thoughts earlyish Thursday.

@pukunui and my guess is 6 = L Whitelock, 7 = Todd and 8 = A Savea. Good 'ole Frizzzel on the bench, getting seven minutes.

that sounds awful. Worse than awful. holy shit is this what we are reduced to?

@pukunui said in All Blacks v France Test 3:
SBW to 6? Probably where he should have been all along.
And Ardie to 12?

Yep. Dmac to 9
Dagg to 10
Jordie to lock
Codie Taylor could probably go to wing too.
Tjp or Aaron Smith can be the ref. -
They could really do anything with the loose forwards, but I'm going to guess at:
- Ioane; 7. Cane; 8; Whitelock; 19. Frizell; 20. Savea
I think they will sell this that Frizell is covering lock and blindside (which Akira "can't" do). Savea is covering 7 and 8.
