Had enough of Sevu Reece he has no pace and that's been evident for a while, some how he keeps getting a black jersey and Robertson has shown too much dedication to a average player, theres a shit ton of classy wingers in NZ who deserve a chance ahead of this guy....
@@robertcashen4761 just my opinion but i feel reiko's career has been ruined with his shift to Centre Don't me wrong i believe he is still an awesome player, but just not used in his best position, by the last two AB coaches But who knows he may actually prefer centre himself
@Rotowhaka Ruined his ABs career, sure, but not his Blues career. He suits the Blues gameplan at center. If Razor wants to keep him at centre, he has to change the way he's used, otherwise he should be out on the wing.
i think every debut and under 10 caps players should start and have a very very strong bench cause having a 50-5 point lead when u come aint gonna do anything throw them into the deep end and show them what its like to start adn maybe 30 minutes left to play bring on the big guns the mckeznie the jordie the reiko ardie tuopu vaai patrick and degrot
1994 Springboks tour to NZ First tour to NZ in 13 years NZ won the series 2-0 with a draw The All Blacks had a bad year that year, lost to France 2-0, then got beaten by the Wallabies, And that is my useless information for today
@@samkohi8705 its only because im an old chap (some would use the other four letter word starting with C ending in t) I went to, two of the Springbok games in 94 The Bay of Plenty and 3rd test The BOP match was awesome, in the rain, head high by the BOP number 8, on the Bok winger, like a real coat hanger, that would be Red Card now BOP, giving the Springboks a rough time, but not having enough to go for the full 80, then watching a few BOP fans giving a couple of smart arse South Africans, some lip after the game, and rightly so. One massive Springbok fan was saying "This ground is a disgrace, our Springboks should not be playing here, we would'nt even train on this ground", He then went on about about how bad Rotorua and NZ in general was. A few comments were given back to him that he did not like Its just a pity these type of games are no longer played
Think be good to have all the guys that haven't had a run to get a start - have sam to captain and pernara start - wont be pretty but they will get the W regardless
I doubt that Razor will use as many new and untested players as you think. His selections have been very conservative to date. Wasn't Jordie Barrett concussed against France?
@@KickOnRugby wishful thinking - Holland is a big unit and plays really well at 6'8" / 2.04m and 260pnd/118kg - he's the future I believe, but at just 22 he's got plenty of time. Of course Josh Lord is just 23 and slightly taller and not a bad player when he can stay injury-free. But at 234pnd/106kg is too skinny (needs about another 22pnd/10kg to be effective - my opinion only lol).

Clarke probably won't be playing. I'd say Love at Wing, with Perofeta at Fullback, just like with Japan. Jordie injured his leg, so if rested, AJ Lam would move to the bench. Ratima also unlikely, Roigard on the bench instead. Reece is a big question mark for me, looked really unfit in the French test.
I guess the loose forward trio is also a question mark, as Kirifi is more of a specialist 7, Sititi barely plays 7, and Lakai doesn't play 6. So, Sititi at 6, Cane at 7, Lakai at 8? Then Cane is replaced by Kirifi I'd wager.
Nah. Not for me. I don’t want rotation for rotation sake. I want the strongest available team every week. Players should compete to start regardless of who the opposition is - don’t give away caps for cheap or pick sentimentally. Give Italy respect and give the ABs the best possible finish for the year.
It's not rotation for rotation's sake. Many of the team have been playing weeks on end. Player welfare is more important than whom you field. Not to mention, a significant group of players - both backs and forwards, are all out with injuries atm. Darry, Plummer, Finau, Jordie etc. You have to blood them now while you got the chance.
@@icefarrow7959 So one more week makes no difference whatsoever. Players are as likely to get injured in training these days so ‘player welfare’ is a non argument.
@@rory7590You can't be serious? Athletes in this sport already complain about being overworked, and you think asking more is not a big ask. Have you even been paying attention to the ABs performances this tour? The top players are fatigued by now, gassed by halftime in the French test.
Again this over realiance of Jordie and the Barrette. Lime I said everytime if AB WANT TO LOOSE PLAY THE THEE BARRETTES. ALL LOSSES JORDIE AND BROTHERS WERE IN. THIS IS NOT NEW BUT JA NZ KEEPS ON HURTING THEM SELFS RATHER THEN REVAMP

Did get found out vs France. That LBB is so fast😵
Should have Reiko on the wing. At least that bloke can defend.
Totally agree
Yes. Poor selecting by Razor
@@KickOnRugbyas fast as Colby?
Would love too se du plessis start what an athlete! He was smashing it in super this year
Maybe start reiko on the wing
Yeah he was!! Wouldn’t mind that💪

Sam Cane will be the Skipper as it is his last match

I went to, two of the Springbok games in 94
The Bay of Plenty and 3rd test
The BOP match was awesome, in the rain, head high by the BOP number 8, on the Bok winger, like a real coat hanger, that would be Red Card now
BOP, giving the Springboks a rough time, but not having enough to go for the full 80, then watching a few BOP fans giving a couple of smart arse South Africans, some lip after the game, and rightly so.

@Rotowhaka Just hang on till 2031 mate, and you'll get your chance again 😂
Mate love the jersey. What year was that tour?
‘94💪
Think be good to have all the guys that haven't had a run to get a start - have sam to captain and pernara start - wont be pretty but they will get the W regardless
Think regardless of who’s selected. It’ll be a pretty win💪
I doubt that Razor will use as many new and untested players as you think. His selections have been very conservative to date. Wasn't Jordie Barrett concussed against France?
No, he injured his leg. Only Finau got concussed.
Yeah will be interesting to see how he goes. Surely give guys opportunity….
This Razor guy needs to go learn by Rassie about coaching. Rassie has two Springboks teams on tour and still beat them all with two different teams
Rest the following players:
Williams, Taylor, Lomax, Vaai, Scott, Savea, Ratima, Beauden, Ioane and Jordan. Injured Players: Cane and Finau.

Nice team💪
Need to think of the combos in the training group, having chemistry so some of youre selections might be off.
Fabian Holland is a better lock than Josh Lord - he just wasn't eligible for NZ until recently. The rest of your picks look good though.
Start Holland and bench Lord?
Lord is already in the squad though, and Razor has made it clear you don't get dropped due to someone new coming in, no matter how talented.
@@icefarrow7959 yeah I know, not too fussed - I rate both (and Darry when he's fit).
@@KickOnRugby wishful thinking - Holland is a big unit and plays really well at 6'8" / 2.04m and 260pnd/118kg - he's the future I believe, but at just 22 he's got plenty of time.

ABs lacking depth at No. 12. Is Peter Lakai a No.6?
Otherwise, good line-up overall.
Don’t think he is. But Sititi isn’t really a 6 neither and he killed it there. Think Lakai can do a job there

Get damn rid of this bladdy donkey of a wing, Reese guy man!
This guy prediction is so dumb. All these players he recommended makes the ABs lose 😢Stopped
What are you saying…..
A middling selection, at best. ALB and Proctor combo in the centers. No, to Cane and TJ. The old guard have had their day.
It’s their last game though. Surely a send off for them is deserved
I thought jordie is out with an injury
Yeah didn’t know that…
@KickOnRugby 50/50 he might still played

Definitely think it’s the perfect opportunity to rotate the squad. Not for rotating sake but these other guys have all been performing. Give them a go
What Anton has so special ? He's pretty bad at defending
2nd efforts of the man. Does all the donkey work that doesn’t make highlight reels
Jordie and Rieko can't defend and they are playing for so many seasons. What difference would it make if they are replaced, can't get any worse
