@taniwharugby said in All Blacks 2022:

@akan004 cheers, the schedule on the website makes it appear Argies are first (as it shows home fixtures at top)

Whoever administers the All Blacks’ website can go as well

Well done Lions and congrats to all your fans!

@KiwiMurph said in All Blacks v Argentina II:

Some good stuff in here but I wish they'd cut out the corporate management speak

Synergies
Engagement

I tell you what, once we put all this stuff we have learnt over the last few years into practice we are going to be unstoppable !

Reds at 11 is madness

Are there any decent journalists that are going to ask some pointed questions of these guys at the next few press conferences?

@Duluth said in All Blacks 2025:

Another quote from the article @tim linked to

But Robertson’s vision was never for him to undertake the tasks that most would agree constitute the role of head coach – setting the overall playing vision for the team and then overseeing the delivery of that plan.

Instead, Robertson pitched himself as a culture coach, responsible for theming campaigns, communicating one-on-one with players to manage their expectations and career progression.

As Robertson confirmed to the Herald this week in Cardiff, it is his assistant, Scott Hansen, who effectively operates in the role most would recognise as the head coach.

the question needs to be asked that if Hansen had applied to be the head coach in 2023, would he have been given the role?

That is one of the most bullshit things I have ever read. Head Coach FFS.

@nta enjoy the win Nick

Well done Australia great game tonight!

@rotated said in 2019 Rugby World Cup:

So if RSA/Canada and ABs/Italy were scheduled in reverse the Boks would be eliminated? If the ABs lost to South Africa in the opening fixture (without a Bonus point) and all else was the same they would be eliminated?

Waaaay to close to close to the sun there.

No, if the All Blacks were at risk of missing the quarter finals they would have used their influence over World Rugby to have the Typhoon moved off course or asked for Japan to be moved out off the way...

That is actually what a red card is for…

@antipodean said in All Blacks XV v Uruguay:

This must be the expertise we're paying Silverlake for.

Isn’t this the exact game for the NZR+ app?

What time is scandal released to the media tomorrow?

John Drake, RIP. His commentary was so good.

Bloody hell, what a shit show. Flush the dunny and move on...

@Samurai-Jack said in Bledisloe I:

Shittings! Aussie media throwing everything into this game!

These stories must have been saved up for Test week surely?

Edit: starting to test the 'better people make better All Blacks' mantra as well...

Great half!

All Blacks all in black boots which is a change from past few years.

Less than 500 tickets left apparently, arvo footy, how good!

@booboo said in All Blacks vs Wallabies Bledisloe II:

Just learned a fact that astonished me.

Listening to Jamie Wall talking to Devlin and in the introduction he made mention of the fact that the Wallabies haven't beaten the All Blacks since 2020! Looked it up and it's TEN straight wins to the ABs. (And as an aside I was at that game in Brissy.)

So they are due then…

I am over in Perth for work this week and next, heading along tonight. Hope the win one lose one cycle is broken.

Baker being a real twat

@Bones said in TRC: Pumas v All Blacks:

@Jaguares4real largely meaningless in a world cup year, largely meaningless between world cup years. Got it.

Try Again Bones

You're missing the point

He’s not the only one

Okay @MN5

Help us out oh wise one.....

Can I just say, I am still really unclear what the eyes mean.
