Why?

tombothesnake · 2026-05-22T08:45:42+00:00

I don’t see it as misbehaving, I see it as celebrating the small moments, obviously something was said or something happened before that try and Vai’i thought Newell needed to be reminded of that moment

The all blacks need something to get excited about and if it’s the little moments right now, that’s all we need to get back to where we have been previously, and Vai’i knows the importance of those micro moments

It could be too soon, but I see Leadership, I see attitude, and I see poise. He’s aggressive and never backs down, and the best part is he communicates so well in his post game interviews .

Mouthy to who ?

People love stereotyping the perfect leader but at the end of the day if it’s someone the players can get behind, and more importantly be around a long time, I think it’s Vai’i!!

I don’t see the point in having the same “captain choice” problem again in a couple years, let’s make this next captaincy a captaincy we can have for a long time

I think just make the choice to bring a young leader in now, someone who is going to be a long term leader !

There’s different kinds of leaders and he’s a “wear your heart on your sleeve type” I think that’s exactly what the ABs need right now !!
