North vs South

[Higgins]

If something catastrophic should happen and a very late replacement is required ie me, who would I be eligible for considering I made myself unavailable for selection at NPC level so are not bound to either Island?

Whoever pays the most obviously

It looks like Paul Williams is the ref.

@Kiwiwomble that's disappointing

1995 World Cup backline should've been:

9 Bachop
10 Spencer
11 Osbourne
12 Little
13 Bunce
14 Kirwan
15 Cashmore

@Tim Cashmore > Osborne? Really? Glen was magnificent at that RWC

[Tim]

@nzzp Cashmore was the best goalkicker in NZ.

Bit rough on Lomu.

Yes, but goddamn that Osborne step was a thing of beauty.

Also, Mehrts wasnt' bad to be fair.

Finally, Poor bloody osborne had 1 1/2 years at the back, had injuries and then someone called Cullen rolled up and made him look pedestrian. I was a big Cashmore and Osborne fan, but goddamn I'd take Osborne in that team.

Never won anything at test level. Ridiculously overrated player in NZ. Not rated anywhere else.

1995: Choke
1996: Culhane and Preston won the series
1997: Spencer dominance
1998: Lost every game
1999: Destroyed at the world cup

[Tim]

1999 was when idiot New Zealanders thought Josh Kronfeld was an All Blacks hardman.

@Tim is the walrus.

[Bovidae]

@Tim Howarth was favoured to be the fullback in 1995. JK was already past it.

[Bovidae]

@Tim is on fire.

I still remember Spencer's woeful goal kicking in Wellington when the ABs lost to the Boks.

@Bovidae I am bringing the passion!
