experience trump's all in international rugby

it fucking absolutely does not

hurricanes fans...

[Machpants]

@mariner4life yeah it does... to a point. Anyway I was more saying that as that's the ABs way rather than the truth.

Big season for halfbacks coming up. Really is no one behind Smith at the moment.

sounds a bit silly when the RWC is 7 games in 6 weeks....something that most of the squad and coaches know about...and that has the added intensity of being a RWC

[Stargazer]

@Tim I really hope Fakatava will get more game time. I think he's the best prospect for the future. If he wants to play for NZ.

Yeah, would be great to see him get regular starts. Highlanders coaches will be under pressure to get the Ws though.

[taniwharugby]

@Stargazer agree very good prospect, but I'm not in the camp that he (and others who have come to NZ for school) should play for NZ, but I think I am in the minority.

[Kiwiwomble]

@Tim as a Landers fan im hoping they realise that its in their own best interests to give him more game time, Smith cant play for ever so a long term replacement (assuming they can re sign fakatava) would be good

Difference is no Tier 3 or 4 teams to have nice rests

[Stargazer]

@taniwharugby I'm in the camp that it's entirely the player's choice. If he wants to play for NZ, fine; if he prefers to play for Tonga, fine too. The ABs selectors should select whoevere is the best eligible player in a position. It would be different if they were actively recruiting in other countries or had some kind of project player policy, but that's not the case.

Me either, but I’ve had to put up with Reece, Frizell etc so will be nice to see one from my home province and school if there has to be another one.

Yay! I thought that thread had been forever lost during a forum transition or whatever the term is.

[Machpants]

Foster said off-the-ball tactics has “almost been a feature of this tournament’’, and that the All Blacks have received several apologies from the refs after games.

Apologies from refs is interesting, hopefully the ref will clamp down on the shit stuff

having just read it, it's one of the best diversions ever. Super serious thread for ages and then within a page it's hilarious and completely unrelated.
