Fair enough, will adjust my future JFTP (Jargon For The People).

@delicatessen then he went and got that chip on his shoulder about his name being disrespected and shit, to me showed he wasnt there mentally either.
Outstanding at times at Super level, decent but limited at International level is how I recall his career in NZ, and maybe a bit unfulfilled.

I think if Laumape had been playing in black in the Smith-Nonu period he would have developed into a good AB much like Crotty did because he had that high bar that Conrad and Ma set to reach for. We have been at a bit of a hiatus in the centre’s since then so maybe has been a bit difficult for anyone to reach that level with ALB maybe getting the closest

Barnesy. I thought he'd retired?
Also, @Stargazer , is RC Rugby Canada?

Jack Goodhue looked bloody good. Basically played mistake free rugby.
He's been unlucky with injuries and being moved around from 13 to 12. -

Bollocks, he's a great ref. Sure in 07 he was totally inexperienced and fucked the ABs, freezing liked a podium in the lights, but that was 14 years ago. He's one of the best refs in the world now

injuries andbeing moved around from 13 to 12.There's been an obsession with buggering about with the AB midfield for the last 6-7 years. Fat lot of good it has done us.
Just find the most promising 12/13 combination and let it develop for more than a few games

Yep. He's now very consistent and I really like the way he communicates with the players - the opposite of pompous and happy to share a joke with the players.
(The Curse of the Meldrew's is probably now on him and he'll have a shocker....)

Ma’a is still playing. Sure it was only third division but I don’t see why he can’t transfer that form to the biggest stage.

Fuck yeah. Surprised there hasn't been a co-ordinated internet and media campaign to get him back in Black as it's the obvious answer to our problems.
Bloody NZRFU giving Foster another two years....

He robbed the ABs of a World Cup knockout game and shouldn't have been allowed to referee an under 11 match after that let alone international tests. He's fucked up several other tests since then. A dreadful ref.

I wouldn't go quite as far, but he's indeed had a few howlers after that, most notably the 2017 Six Nations game between France and Wales. Complete officiating chaos including a biting incident and total confusion/cheating around French prop subs in a 100-minute test match.
