@Wreck-Diver

I’m sure he will and will get a lot of support doing so.

Would be good to cut out his ‘uuuummmm’s

Yeah bit dissapointing since the last few ABs captains have been such interesting raconteurs

Cane, Read, McCaw...

Esp Read

But they didn't speak for so long. Ardie's more interesting as is Jordie so maybe send then out to do the longer talks. Scott should keep it very short AND DO ANY talking on the filed

But not with his shoulder to someone lying in a ruck

Scot Barrett needs to work on talking to the media. Not a great interview.

Who the fuck cares?
McCaw was boring as fuck but a great leader on the field.

I reckon.

……apart from Tana and JC they all have been.

Kieran Read tried to liven things up by widening his eyes I guess.

@Machpants sorry if I have an opinion that you don't like. Your safe space and cuddly toy are to your left. Your therapist is on her way.

@Frank Your safe space and cuddly toy are to your left cup cake.

@No-Quarter said in All Blacks vs England I:

We went straight into the test series against Ireland with no warm up games either, if memory serves me correct. Last year we went straight into the RC without any warm ups, though that was a condensed year due to the RWC.

I feel like we are giving the Northern sides an advantage by not scheduling a warm up against at least one of the Island nations. It also gives them a chance to play a tier 1 side more regularly so win win.

NZRFU taking a leaf out of the Black Caps' book of preparing for a big series?

@antipodean Is Brekky Creek still a classic?

I shed some tears, too, when it was announced he was starting.

Might as well just cut out his tongue and be done with it

It is for me, not that I get to frequent it much these days. But being a local always helped I think because RSA didn't seem to apply to us for some reason. 15 mins to walk downhill there and about 60mins to walk home :face_with_tears_of_joy:

[pakman]

@antipodean Haven't been for at least 15 years, since my brother moved back home.

[BerniesCorner]

Ray we got this

[pakman]

Stuart Barnes reckons TJP selection may be to address England 9’s vulnerability to physical opponents.

[BerniesCorner]

Serious challenge as a first match for the new coach.

[kiwiinmelb]

Game day , I feel positive for some reason , just liking the vibe I’m getting from the camp , let’s go baby
