Amazingly, despite standard post RWC exodus, we could still put out the same team as against Ireland in the Quarters -2 (and one of them will be back)

@Machpants you've really gotta get the hang of this uploading pics thing eh.

@Bovidae except you can't hear the questions, and it made me realise that I'm a bit bored of laconic drawling coaches.
@Machpants Yes, unfortunately it is a common problem with a lot of press conferences.
So the main points were that the ABs might not take 11 extra players to Aust now, and Coles is available for selection.

I guess with the change of restrictions, they dont need to.

He didn’t sound that certain to me, I think they will take more players due to the fact it can change quickly

NZH article on Fozzies interview "Separated by the Ta$man sea, confined to their respective domestic Super Rugby competitions due to travel restrictions, New Zealand and Australian rugby players have not squared off in 2020, adding a layer of intrigue to the pre-match chess movements."
Fuck reporting is of a low standard around rugby
"For the All Blacks there's been no chance to watch New Zealand teams combat the Brumbies' rolling maul (ask the Chiefs); no chance to assess the Reds' attacking flair (ask the Crusaders). "

And both Laumape and S Barrett are progressing well, but neither are available for selection.

@Bovidae Interesting commentary about PUJ unless I couldn't hear the question correctly.

Liked his answers about the new players. Seems more steely eyed than normal.
Must be weird to be asked questions. Became a bit for Hanson to direct the press to Fozzie at times.

Yeah, if this was a signal of a Fozzie taking on the mantle, it was quite noticeable change.
Looks ready to go. A few big decisions ahead. Do we still have to wait till Thursday?

it was the same with their press conferences all through the world cup ,
listening to the AB coaches answer questions except you cant hear the questions ,
you would think they could get that sorted
