The Brodie Retallick interview-is that the level of professional speaking quality from NZ Sports reporters these days? Apart from the Elle Macpherson "how's the body?" questions repeated about 4 times they seemed to struggle to get a question out without trailing off like Grandpa Simpson..
Must be getting tips from Mark Nicholas.

@bovidae can just image Foster reads the below and yells out, hey we could get Hollywood method acting closer to the action!
"... dynamic Sevu Reece inside him at No 12, having been shifted from the wing for his final year." -

So anyone heard anything about UK coverage yet?

So Keo in SA has written off the All Black forwards as "frail". Hate to say it but he does have a point (for once). Unless there are some serious improvements this year, this so-called frailty is going to be an obvious target for the opposition.

@old-samurai-jack which forwards? Surely not our loose forwards?

I am more worried about our backs.

he's comparing us to a golden era of AB tight play. Only rates savea, reckons Whitelock/Retallick are past it.
I think the only thing you can say is 'we'll see'. Not sure the Bokke are filling the world with fear right now - the lack of international level rugby will have an effect. Lions tour could be very interesting. Betfair has the lions slightly favourites to win the series, and I agree - and I think the forwards will be a big part of that.
We've seen the NH sides really lift after their 2015 embarassment. Good for them, now we have to do the same

Perhaps we should stop sending our coaches and retirees OS to teach them?

Keo is the SA version of Ratpoo. Click bait so ignore.
even more clickbait than he used to be since he struck out on his own.
A mate (genuinely not me yo) used to hop on Keo after the Bokke lost and troll them ... very easy to wind up his audience. I don't commend or condemn, but I do understand
