            Exactly what we need a 6 because we don’t have any of those in the squad.

              Come on Shag, show some balls and give Dalton Papali'i a bench position or even a start if Cane can't make it. That kid will be a star and it's time to give him a go.

              That would definitely take some balls, Gibson missing out when he's the best player in the world would be quite the controversy.

              Gibson > Bryn Hall?

              I don't think so.

              Sorry, should have said - best player in the world outside any North Harbour player.

                  While you’re waiting.....

                  Richie McCaw was an All Black. Or he was an All Blacks player. Is Richie McCaw an All Blacks great or an All Black Great because I presume that he and Dan Carter would be All Black greats.

                  Thoughts?

                    @taniwharugby On the other side though, his ability to lift his physicality (and drag the rest of the ABs up with him) was massively underrated. There was one game against the boks in '13 or '14 where we were dominating you at the collisions. McCaw lifted his aggression at the ruck and upped his workrate. It was incredible. Changed the whole nature of the game.

                      Or maybe "All Blacks' player" with an apostrophe. You know, so the grammar is good.

                      Honestly, I'll have what you're smoking!

                          Why are there posts about the best player in the world with no mention of Charlie Ngatai?

                          Jeez, have a busy couple of days and don't keep an eye on this place and it turns to shit.

                          Now I'm about to go on a weekend away with better things to do than monitor you lot and I'm concerned.

                            Facebook Memories is bringing up years and years and years of posts about the Wallabies being rubbish. It's been a woeful decade for them hasn't it?

                                          Would have been interesting to have seen MJ (before his concussion issues) getting a run for ABs outside Beaudy Boy. With their speed they could really have done some damage.
