He's a journo that covers league and rugby. He's not bad but his lack of knowledge can be annoying (I.e. not knowing the HIA protocol etc). He tends to troll on twitter and made a series of tongue in cheek team previews to start the season that some fans got upset about.

Blackadder shouldn't even be considered until he proves he can play a couple of months of rugby without being injured. There's so many good loosies around.
If Cane is selected off of a back injury it's even more risky to include Blackadder

It's another good bias test really, he's never done anything in Black that demands his selection on the back of being injured most of the season, and career wise he's been so injury prone it's not even funny. If he makes it, it is purely because of how close he is to Razor, no chance a player from another franchise would be selected on the same criteria (e.g. potential at test level despite long term injuries).

Any fern Blackadder circle jerkers should have this post tattooed on them for reference every time they want to shout his name from the rooftops

The loose forwards,Locks and outside backs,will not please everyone on the fern.

Goes without saying. Never going to please everyone. Don’t think there’s ever been an AB’s team named where people don’t complain….

To be fair, early Hansen era was utterly boring selections, with no real quibbles. Shows they were getting it right.

Care to post any rumours or are you just going to say "I knew that" once the squad is public?

Nice.
Our opponents will be expecting fast and explosive and instead they’ll get slower, steady and sometimes reliable. Genius coaching.
