    He looks busy, but is ineffective against bigger players. Wait and see.

      How far the All Blacks have fallen.

          Are we likely to call in reinforcements, like Joe Moody?

            @SBW1 They can't call in a new player, unless they send someone home. Without an injury to another prop, I can't see that happening. I should add that Moody also hasn't set the NPC on fire thus far.

              Replying to yourself is never a good sign and I’m not sure I’m keen to endorse calling up a player even more injury prone than Blackadder.

                I think we can all agree he can’t be worse than Vaai.

                  At this rate, Robertson’s Cantablacks 2024 edition may be a step up from Foster’s 2023 vintage 😂

                        @Bones Oh, was just gonna tell you about Fletcher Newell's father flying to South Africa for his test debut and the story behind it. You may shed a tear or 2 after hearing it.......

                        Meanwhile, there is a Blackadder shaped hole in the ABs squad incase you didn't know.

                          @Steve If only Beauden Barrett could go back to the days where he played the game like he was being controlled by someone on playstation, your life would be complete.

                          Did you cry when Fletch came on for his WC debut?

                                I don't think Ethan B plays like Jane but I do have a concern over

                                1. Lineouts (no tall loosies) and
                                2. EB's propensity to injury.

                                I really suspect Ryan does not rate Akira.

                                Ethan B is good in the lineouts.

                                    Imo blackadder goes straight to the bench. 40 minutes for frizzell then bring on blackadder.

                                      We win the final with Ethan Blackadder and DMAC in the run on 15.

                                          Hope he has better luck with injuries.
                                          Seems he got nod as cover for Captain Sam.

                                          I’m concerned that the absence of Bok teams from Super Rugby has lulled selectors into thinking jack of all trades loosies can cut it against the big boys.
