All Blacks v Argentina I

@canefan Yes, but I think that’s his point. It’s always going to be a little bit of playing to the game plan and playing what’s in front of you. The backs look like they’re being over-coached to the point they don’t trust their own instincts. I think something is fundamentally wrong in the coaching setup.

It's luvly jubbly having a forward pack. It's been a long time coming.
I feel we can now go toe to toe with the SA pack. -

@brodean cant say i’m fully sold on Proctor myself but what i am saying he deserves a full season to bed in
Besides i dont see too many other options staring us in the face
It would be pointless going back to Reiko if your trying to develop your attack i just dont see the guy as natural distributor and hes played plenty of rugby at 13 for both the Blues and the ABs .
If we have losses where theres disfunction in those particular areas by all means make changes but in the mean time no need to change Proctor imo
Just for the record whom would you bring in ?I agree. He's shown at SR level he has the capability, I feel it's worth more time in the saddle to see if he can steadily improve.
Dumping him now would surely destroy his confidence.
The player that most needs to be put on the pine is the one player they won't: Ardie Savea. Why aren't we discussing his "impact" more openly? Or is it enough he didn't try another chip kick in our own 22?
-
Love needs to be in the 23.
We need to experiment.
Love to 15 /10 or wing Do some goal kicking.
Give DMac game time.
Jordan swap at times to wing
Give Proctor more time
Aimless kicks are a nightmare -
@His-Bobness just need a decent 10 who knows how to manage this game plan. Oh wait he’s coming back soon.
-
One or two fullas need to retire

Dan's a bit old for a comeback.

I feel we can now go toe to toe with the SA pack.Early days - but, shifting Vaa'i to 6 might be a masterstroke - our own version of PSdT.
At full strength (soon, but maybe not yet), we could go:
Williams, Taylor, Lomax, Holland, Barrett, Vaa'i, Savea, Sititi
deGroot, Taukei'aho, Newell, Tuipolotu, Parker, Lakai (6/2 split if we want it)For now, probably Finau and Jacobson for Parker and Lakai.

I feel we can now go toe to toe with the SA pack.From memory we played them last year on about 40 percent possession , not enough ball in reality , it may have worked in the past,
I suspect if we can even the possession stats we will have them very concerned
-
@kiwiinmelb Add in Sititi and Roigard and things are sweet.
Flyhalf is a major problem area though. -
A Clarke Love Jordan combo could be spicy.

-
Regardless of anything we are in a much better position than we have been in for years JOY

@BerniesCorner it’s not really. We’ve got the greatest super rugby player of all time coming back next year
-
@Chuck72 Razors not shifting Will Jordan for anyone. Prime Christian Cullen maybe.

Cully can go to centre and fix the problem there....
