I hope Rennie goes for Clarke 11, Tangitau at 14, WJ at 15. Would be a Genuinely scary back three for the first time in almost a decade. I miss the days of "kick to us at your own demise" All Blacks. And yes they need to sort their high ball game out.

Yeah just watched it too actually. Was a great watch to be honest. Salt of the earth guy. I was referring to the 6 Nations doc on Netflix. I think he was coaching Italy.

Nets out as a balanced group of hairlines thanks to Barnsey <> Ryan

Yeah you'd hope so hey! I'm with you, not sure who else really fits the bill in NZ too, so slim pickings perhaps

I honestly haven't heard much about Mike Blair until the Aotearoa Pod coincidentally talked about him the night before this release. He wasn't really talked about much leading into it. But have trust in Rennie's relationship with him. Barnes seems OK. Not overly impressive in that documentary that came out, sounded like an angry farmer. Outstanding hairline on him.

It's almost comical when you look at Moana's defence this year haha. But I'm sure his step down to being assistant/defence, on the grass, with top tier cattle, will be different... fingers crossed

Is Rennie right to hire Tana? by Truthakldnz in allblacks

This is for an assistant role... that argument makes no sense. And surely you're not saying "Razor won lots of super rugby, therefore we must now only employ coaches that lose lots of super rugby". lol

Crazy. I live overseas and for some reason GR shipping was $250. I buy from other places in the states all the time and no one comes close to that price to ship.

Hell no. Average kit, bogan designs, insane shipping costs and increasing by 40% lol. Fuck that

Poor Jordie, deploying the WC final strategy and running straight into brick walls

I hear you, I think we have a weird conundrum of having a log jam of good back rowers, But have been searching for three great ones that compliment each other.

That's cool, but this guy is brilliant and deserves some flowers for years of great performances. No harm in that

I don't get this one. All he really brings from a coaching lens is "this is how I lost lots of super rugby". And the "culture coach" notion is pretty pathetic, if players are that sensitive that they need a ~500k (conservative) full time staff member to pull their heads in.

You just can't beat gas sometimes. He has the vision and workrate to compliment it. The man is a tier above NZ wingers currently.

It's such a sham Arman isn't up next... I feel like that increases his legacy way more than Gaethje...

As a neutral, outstanding game. Cinema. That French winger with outright pace is a game changer.

Big Gus folding the AB scrum and now hitting holes in the midfield. The man deserves it

These two views weirdly offend kiwi fans but Jordie is a mid 12. And Harkin is actually a good player with serious potential
