I'm getting a 'not found' with a picture of an otter? and a message "You seem to have stumbled upon a page that does not exist" when I click on that link.

Caleb Clarke looks like he’s lost 10kg. Be interesting to see how he goes with his new body shape.. probably wants a bigger work rate and not so much running over people
@Dolamite I hope he has a big year and can up that work-rate because he can be a devastating runner. I wonder when his NZRU contract expires because I feel like if he has another sub-standard year he may be the next to make the shift to league where his game may be better suited. This coupled with the fact he's already made connections with the Rabbitohs and I wonder how much RTS has had an influence on a potential shift to the NRL.
I hope he stays in rugby but wouldn't be surprised at all if this eventuated.

An opinion piece arguing against picking overseas players

@Duluth A well-argued piece. Now's not the time to ditch the no overseas rule. Razor should have more than enough playing talent to create a world-class Test team.

I'd argue he inherited one.
I'm more interested in how he develops it going forward, builds depth and develops players and combinations in key positions. He has 4 years to do that and If that means 1 or 2 embarrassing losses, then so be it.

@Tim 'well recognised as probably the best analytical voice in New Zealand rugby'

Marshall mentioned in that interview that he has spoken to Razor and has an idea that he will playing less predictable pod systems, more ball in hand, and more up-tempo.
@Frank And implied that Razor was a little frustrated by the AB tactics.....

I would expect nothing less. Razor is there to try to bring positive change and innovation, and ultimately success

The same Marshall that told everyone Razor wasn't allowed at All Blacks games during the RWC?

There have been many times in the last 4 years where we literally didn't have a clue.
Things are about to happen, all good. -

Things are about to happen, all good.That has been the case forever with most I think. Thats why we not top coaches, we have no idea what's gong on. I can honestly say, I could see what the coaches were trying to acheive as much in the last 4 years as I ever did.

Actually with Mitchell and Deans the game plan and tactics were pretty clear I thought.
Looked good for awhile too. -

Looked good for awhile too.I generally got their tactics , but can say I get general tactics of most coaches . just not the detail. Mitchell and Deans stumped me with their selections , but as I say they knew why they wanted certain players, and I didn't. Funnuily enough I heard Umaga speak at a luncheon in Aus, he indicated there was some confusion under the Mitchell/Deans combo.

Looked good for awhile too.It was just the Blues 2003 tactics but then they muzzled the forwards for the RWC for some idiotic bald reason.
