    Worst ever All Blacks test team.

    The injuries certainly limited the options in the 23 based on who was left in the squad.

    That is the backline Cully was predicting, except Reece and Jordan swapping roles.

    His way of saying goodbye?

    That backline is a wasted opportunity for me. Looking forward to 2026, we aren’t going to learn anything useful from ALB and Rieko.

    One could argue that it gives DMac a great chance to show at 10, and Love gets a go at 15 with experience all around, but hard to see anything done for cohesion.

    And, if the backline DOES set the house on fire, where does that leave us going forward?

    Give ourselves an uppercut and remind ourselves it’s only Wales

    Two players that I would love to see in the ABs are Tangitau and Flanders. A fit Flanders is better than Parker IMO and Tangitau is just a gun, noting he has a bit to work on defensively.

    @Bovidae almost feels like they forgot to drop Reece from the squad back in October lol, he's getting himself a free cap this weekend hopefully it's his last

    Well, this side is a real fullstop on the end of the season.

    Gives the vibe of waking up after smashing an entire pack of darts on a night out. Just a bit grim.

    Jesus, we are a real mess aren't we?
    What are we hoping to achieve with that selection? It's just 'make sure everyone gets a go' day in what is supposed to be a high performance environment, when we have not made the progress we need to and have a heap of unanswered questions.

    "And at half time we'll swap the backs around with the forwards". Hmmm....

    Ardie Savea and Beauden Barrett aren’t playing. Now we get to see how things go without them. 😬

    Missed opportunity to run Savea off the bench as 7/12 cover.

    Kirifi, ALB, Reece, Christie. It's like a fucking nightmare.

    The only bright aspect is no Savea wasting a position on the field and Damien has to make a turd sandwich palatable.

    Not sure i've seen anything from Dyer that justifies him being an All Black.

    Who is your alternative?

    I would've had Marcel Renata ahead of Mafileo. Renata can also play both sides which is why Mafileo was picked.

    I know he's 31 so on the older side, but props age like wine these days.

    So both these dude's in front of Dyer? Cool. Not sure I can add any value to that.

    But when we're down to numbers 4, 5, and 6 in any position it's getting somewhat subjective.

    Appreciate your response. But what have you seen in Renata and Mafileo that justifirs them as All Balcks? (Genuine if somewhat smart arse question.)

    Not a fan of Sevu ... but otherwise quite happy with that.
