    @Victor-Meldrew We don't have dead rubbers where the ABs are concerned. Every single game counts and they are expected to go out and win each and every time they take the field no matter what. Never give a sucker an even break so the saying goes. Has Mark Robinson accepted his resignation offer yet?

    @Higgins

    But many on the Fern wanted Akira starting, Jordie at 15, Laumape at 12, Reiko on the wing and BB at 10 to see how he went.

    He Listened. They lost. We blame Fozzie....

    He didn’t read the Fern disclaimer about our accuracy, so still on him 😊

    I don't think anyone said "all at once" though.

    Fozzie's obviously a consensus sort of bloke.

    Aha. Decision by committee usually ends well.

    do we lose without the RC though? That seemed a pretty inexperienced team, that didn't cope well with the loss of a man.

    I'm one who got it wrong - I thought Laumape was sucha remarkable player he'd transition into Tests nicely. Bah.

    You’d still have included the Daft Barrett though

    Yes, I found that pretty funny. Turns out Fozzie's frontline team is pretty good.

    If Akira stayed on we could have won AND I don't remember posters saying pick Reece! Keep TJP on as long as possible!

    @nzzp I'm wondering if Laumape is 100%-that was one serious injury

    Seemed bit much to rush him back into a test match

    @nzzp Add Savea at no.8 in that Hurricanes combo.

    Rule 1 in selecting AB teams.

    Put a cap on the number of Hurricanes.

    When we've got them forming the spine of the team it's no wonder madness set in! 🙂

    How's Fozzie going?

    New Zealand national rugby union team - Wikipedia

    New Zealand national rugby union team - Wikipedia

    Third worst win percentage of any AB coach behind Alex MacDonald and Ivan Vodanovic.

    Small sample Fozzie, but you've not got many losses up your sleeve to match even your Waikato predecessor, Mitch.

    We can all pick your team to 98% accuracy anyway, it's just the random spot where there's no Crusader, Cantab, Ta$man, guy drove through Chch player available that we struggle with.

    You know you need to be more specific.
