@DaGrubster the soundbite I heard this morning is that 4th is the lowest we have ever been since the rankings have been a thing.
i bet no player knows this
Another fault of the coaches.

Google subjected to data rate restriction so Insta can get the attention it deserves.

@antipodean well you can get a plan with Vodafone for unlimited social data use, but has limited data otherwise.

Or is he in the process of losing it...I have wondered this for the last few years. The senior players would have all been under numerous coaches and would instantly know whether Fozzie is a goose or not.
There are a number of anonymous survey tools now, simply survey the playing group making sure it is anonymous to get accurate feedback. There is very heavy bias when speaking in public about someone's ability.

Or is he in the process of losing it...if on honest, there are probably enough guys in this squad that should have been dropped on pure form at least briefly over the last few years, they probably know they have foozie to thank for keeping them around

Well the ABs and Ireland followed the origin script correctly - one team wins the first match, the other has a big win in the second, sets up the decider to be the greatest match in the history of the known multiverses.

@Nepia all the NH and SH teams did!
lowest world ranking ever?
At least the slide has been consistent.
I'm a bit cynical about world rankings but perhaps it is time the NZR coach appointment board fell on their pens? They didn't just appoint, they created a crap selection process, and reappointed! -

poor Rieko, the amount of times I've seen his name misspell through the years would be in the hundreds

If we lose , is it possible to move out of the top 4 rankings ?
Can you imagine that ? an allblack team not in the top 4 teams in the world .

Nah even if we lose we are 4, and we have never been 4 before. I fact for 85% of the time we have been 1. Basically fosters time is the only time we haven’t been top, outside of a few months here and there

We need to win this one.
Starters:
Front row -- Bower, Nepo if 100% (Ofa if not), Taylor (as much as anything for Chch cohesion)
Locks-- BBBR, Whitelock if fit (Vaai'i if not)
Loosies -- Sam, Scooter, Ardie
Nugget
Five eighths -- BB, Havili (because we need a kicking option)
Three quarters -- Three of Reece/Rioane/Goodhue/Jordan (case for Jack to settle defence down)
Jordie.
Bench:
Ofa (Nepo), Sami T, Karl T, Vaai'i/Aioane, Sotutu, Christie, Mo'unga, Goodhue/Reece
