question, thoughts on the AB's alternate strip, do we feel as strongly about a white strip as we do the All Black? would people consider something with some Maori motifs? white with Black and Red?

@Kiwiwomble agreed. Gold one is my first choice. The new one with the white is third. I thought the one from RWC last year was pretty good as well and comes in second

We shouldn't ever, ever! If the French aren't pissing around with their blue then it is only the Scots that screw it up.

I believe an AB jersey shouldn't be messed around with too much, however I reckon some subtle Maori designs on the white strip could be quite cool.

Silver isn't a colour it's a metal - grey is a colour. Just the same as gold is a metal, and yellow is a colour.
It confuses Australians all the time.

It cracked me up when I learned that the colour Aussies insist on calling Gold (from their beloved Green and Gold) had a Pantone code with the name 'Yellow'

@Crucial "Canary Yellow"

@Crucial "Canary Yellow"
Sadly not.
It is (according to Pantone) a part of the Yellow spectrum and I will admit that it is closer in composition to a shade called 'Golden' (as opposed to Gold) than to pure yellow.
But it is still yellow. -

If Rieko wants to be a centre then we have to judge him as a centre, rather than his body of work on the wing. If that's the case then no way he starts ahead of ALB and JG, he's just not in their class yet despite his obvious talent. He's on the bench for mine, coming on in the final 20 to get some experience in the position and wrecking some havoc. We shouldn't move him back to wing as he will never settle and realise his potential in the midfield otherwise.
At the moment we simply don't have a world class right winger. Jordan has the attributes but there are questions marks over his defense. So Jordie it is for now, as much as I'd prefer him at 15.

I have liked your post for the bit about Rieko but disagree that Jordie has the attributes to be a world class wing.
Even his brother recognised it last week when he made inroads down Jordie's flank, looked at him and took contact instead of passing and watching him get bundled into touch. -

spot on, and England in the final - they shot their load the week before.
And in RWC2015 England suffered from premature ejection...

Wait what? You’re applying one rule for Rieko and then ignoring it for your boy JB.
