All Blacks v Springboks

Interestingly, given the discussion?bitch fest below, i just got an email from Rugby News (fuck knows why, i haven't had a subscription in 10 years?) and they are talking about a
Drederick TatumIan Jones article about the 5 players we need fit for the World Cup next year.One of the first names that popped in to my head was Taylor, and given the preview, he appears to be one of them.
If it was my article

He also had one of the most meteoric rises too. He had one awesome Super campaign that elevated him into the ABs. I actually think that Andre Taylor was better in his break out Super season and it didn't carry him into the ABs.

@nepia disagree. Taylor was a hungus. NMS was something special in 2015.
I liked Taylor but he didn’t have that skill execution that NMS has shown. Taylor and Masaga were awesome at Super level but they rarely passed the nut.

@bones said in All Blacks v Springboks:
@nepia barely performing as opposed to screaming pick me are quite opposite ends of the spectrum I'd say.
Slightly different note, as Harris can't throw in, he can just take NMS spot on the wing.
I'll have to be very specific with my language next time.
Agreed on Harris, he's quite a good wing for the Chiefs.

@nepia Yes, ex CBHS captain.
Agree, there is the opportunity to find a good young 3rd hooker.

fuck, is it what! And we have so little to talk about these days. And we've chased all the international posters off, so we sort of have to sit around taking cheap pot-shots at each other.

your potshot game straight trash bruh
I will be a believer in S Barrett if he can stand up to the SA locks.

Yeah this test could be a real turning point for Scott Barrett. He was a standout for the Crusaders this season and hasn’t really put a foot wrong as an impact player. But starting a big(gish) test against some big units is quite different.

A big performance here will settle a few nerves in various places i would imagine.
