<p>Why all this hypothesizing about lineups for the next game when we can just ask jegga to get the inside word when he next has <span style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">breakfast with him Jerome Kaino, Liam Squire, <strong>Marty </strong>MacKenzie and Joe Moody?</span></p>

<p>Right you are, but then I'm not the one who regularly has breakfast with them so I will have to differ to the expert... </p> -

<p>Pukunui I agree. No reaction from the Aussie lock. I was gouged once and you come up swinging and biting and throwing anything and everything. Lack of reaction alone tells you no gouge.</p>

<p>yep happened to me once, grabbed the guys arm, and came up swinging. Once it was stopped i showed the ref my eyes and he got a red. Of course he spent the rest of the came yelling at me he was going to fight me in the carpark after the game.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Of course he didn't,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>i was in my car 15 seconds after the final whistle. Got to be quicker than that son!</p> -

<p>Woah hold on there, now you are just taking it too far.</p>
<p>I mean having breakfast with them and getting the inside goss on selections is one thing... but expecting to solve one of life's greatest mysteries is something else entirely.</p> -

Wasn't there a kerfuffle a while back over the misspelling of Mesim's name with some posters suggesting it was showing a lack of respect towards an AB? -

<p>FIIK. I was just pissing around with Messum as it seemed like the easiest one-letter change on theme.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We should ask jegga what the All Blacks think.</p>

<p>there was, I wont name the 2 involved (one hasn't posted here for some time, the other is still a regular) especially as the one making the big deal of it, then went and spelt another players name incorrectly in one of his replies bemoaning the poor spelling of Messam!</p> -

<p> </p>
<p>Ah I expect you mean "not be be starting in the next test match".</p>
<p>Clearly of that group, only Crotty is a likely starter and with him it's more likely they want him to show some match fitness.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Charlie at least is likely to be on the bench as well as Codie Taylor.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>DIsappointed that PT hasn't been given a run yet in the RC but there is some ways yet to go in the comp.</p> -
