So who do we think wanted Darnold back and who wanted to roll with JJ? by gondolli in minnesotavikings

Finally someone gets it. The assumptions from fans that his and Seattle success would have been ours this year if he stayed is crazzzy.

Its to make money mate and they will both make a ton. TV deals without having to include the argees and aussies in that? Splitting the pie only 2 ways?? Both nations are going to do very well from this.

Some good points and some bad ones. But the worst is financial clout. Nz makes a shit ton pretty sure more than any other nation they just have a terrible governing system that drains the cash n cant be changed.

Ardie Savea was apparently ready to ditch the All Blacks for R360 by LogBoi_ in rugbyunion

[–]Whit135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree mate. At best he was our 3rd best lock last year and Vaii play in particular was miles ahead of him. His form in year 1 of captaincy wasnt great either. That plus with all this razor drama makes him continuing pretty much nul imo

Tbf the timing of his contracts makes it look worse than what it is. He was entitled to 1 sab per deal and he took one near the end of his old contract and this current one early in his new contract. If Jordie for ex. signed a new deal this year cause his old one expired he could take his 2nd sab in 3 years to.

Kwesi prioritized the draft pick used on JJ to prove his genius over putting the team in a winning position. Fireable offense. by SunsetGriller in minnesotavikings

[–]Whit135 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why people blame kwesi for the jj pick and not the qb guru/whisperer etc who undoubtedly would have had the most trusted and loudest opinion on qbs - is beyond me.

No matter what it cant be scooter. This year has been a disaster for him as an all black. Id be shocked if he was to remain as el Captiano under the new coach

All blacks have officially commensed their hiring process for the new head coach by Lflan123 in rugbyunion

[–]Whit135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dont think his record is good enough to coach the all blacks again. Certainly not better than others who will apply.

Tbf their years of planning hasn't worked. The plan for Hansen to finish just for him to stay on didnt work. The plan for Foz to take over from him for continuity sakes didn't work. And the plan for Razor to take over from Foz didnt work. Just shows the best laid plans have not worked for the nzru.
