@KiwiMurph I think you're searching pretty hard if you see issues with his ball control at the back of the scrum, certainly not something I'd noticed when he was constantly making ridiculous metres or spot on passes. How would Rennie target that anyway?
He's been reasonably tidy this year. He did have a poor game at the base of the scrum vs Wellington. Which was the last game of rugby he played
He had a couple of hiccups with the ball in the boot.
But @Bones makes a good point: how do yo target that? Concede a scrum 5m from your own line and let's them (us) try for a pushover?

@NTA i expect if we had the downvote enabled, some posters would crash the software....

@Bovidae very good point about coaching succession too - having someone there who's been there done that means incoming coaches don't have to worry about figuring out how it all works at that level.
Edit: Also rates Vaai very, very highly it seems.

If I was Foster (but I am not),Thanks for clarifying.
You never know. We’ve just learned that @mariner4life is Aaron Mauger and it’s obvious that @sparky is Richard Thomas given he’s so quick to post every positive All Black cliche. And I swear some of those Hawke’s Bay players are moonlighting as posters, because who could be that invested....

@KiwiMurph maybe NZR could also fix the shit weather while they're at it?

Forecast isn't actually too bad for the day - it's the night where things turn bad.

I have to admit that I was going to go but when I looked at the price of a shit seat and combined that with the weather report I did a 'yeah,nah'.
Might change my mind at the last minute.I think many people have realised over the years that the cheap seats at the Caketin aren't worth the coin. Too far away from the action, too far away from services, a long walk to and from the entrance.
You can deal with all of that if the game is something special but it takes that extra desire to force the $ out of pockets. -

Anyone want a bet this is starting XV?
Moody, Taylor, Tuungafasi, Tuipulotu, Whitelock, Frizell, Cane (cpt), Savea, Smith, Mounga, Bridge, Goodhue, Ioane, J.Barrett, B.Barrett.
Let’s just say not my pick, but wouldn’t bet against it

Ole boring balls-up bridge will be a disappointing selection.

@ACT-Crusader Look I Am not sold on the team I posted and I like some of your changes, however lets just say for now that when the official team comes out later I will be surprised if I am wrong, even by one.
