Great summary but the under rated part of this All Blacks team is the front row. This is saying alot, but in my opinion theyll be considered the best front row in the world in 18 - 24 months. Book mark this comment lol
Yeah bro & what's scary is apart from Tu'ungafasi & Taylor our front row are all young in they're mid twenties & havnt even peaked yet I can see our scrum dominating at least the next two rwc's! Up the Abs...
#AllBlackseverything lessss goooo... ⚡🖤🖤⚡💪🏼💪🏼😝
Samisoni will come back and push codie out too
Tosi and Williams. Two ex no.eights now packing down in the front row. Pair them with either Taukei’aho or Amua and you’ll have one of the most explosive front rows in world rugby. Realistically closer to the next world cup.
@@jim8790 Im actually not sure how they could prop for Aumua; he's so much shorter than them - both of those guys are taller than everyone in the pack except for Finau & the locks!
Don’t forget Newell. He’s the best scrummager in the country and torched the Blues when the Crusaders beat them.
Marcus Smith vs Dmac 🔥
Under the roof - dry pitch - suits both styles
Didn’t even think of this axis, sort of changing of the guard / getting the keys to the kingdom for both of them. They will be eager to impress, exciting stuff.
Damc ❤
It wouldn't surprise me if none of the English players shave for the game and put pressure on Razor
Haha noice😅
LOL
Rubbish joke. I’ll use it. Cheers.
Clever
@@robertwood6297 actually, if AB’s do win, it’ll be a close shave……sorry.
Dont sleep on DMac.
When he committed to 10, he went and played in Japan for a season in 2022 where he played 10 consistently rather than the 15/10 combo he was getting in NZ.
Took out top point scorer, his team topped the table, and narrowly missed out in the finals against the other top team. But then he came back to NZ, and it was immediately obvious how much he had grown at 10. Playing at 15 where he has time to see the gaps was his forte, so what has he done at 10, he plays deeper to give himself that time he needs, but he also has been unselfish in his distribution and has been so good at picking out the right players. And his kicking is on point, taking out top point scorer in 2023 and 2024 Super Rugby seasons.
100% . If the forwards can muscle up DMAC & the backline might rip England to pieces.
You're a good dude Jim, All Blacks, need's this for our Country and fans across the world.
Jim, I love hearing you talk about rugby. You purely focus on the positives and get me so fooookin excited for the game. Thank you!
I highly rate England in the next 3 years and at the next WC - I think they'll be in the final. (South African btw, completely neutral)
England 100% have the exciting talent in their backs, they just need their forwards to set up a dominant platform - and they've got a forwards pack with 1-2 WC experiences under their belts each and hard lessons learned, but also they've gotten close enough in the past to know what it now takes. I can't find reasons England don't do well in the next 3 years, unless there's some kind of player/coach revolution, but Borthwick seems to have the ship tightened. A free-flowing strong English team is a a great thing to see, let's hope it happens!
As a long suffering England fan (I remember the England of the 1970s 😱😟) it is great to see England playing fast running rugby, and scoring tries as a result. The biggest change is the willingness to take risks. This is still an evolving team, but they will not be a pushover for anyone. Should be a good game.
Id love England to try and beat the All Blacks with a running game... that worked well for South Africa. All of us kiwi's are really looking forward to this and are eager to see what Razor can do with this team and the new exciting talent coming through.
I’m afraid Borthwick is too smart for that haha, I think they are more likely to play a similar game plan as they did against SA. However they can marry that with a much more clinical finishing (finally!)
England smashed New Zealand with a running game in the 2019 WC
@@frostysfreeway2320 that was 5 years ago buddy
@@blackfyre4684 Is there a time limit on conversion ? 👀
@@frostysfreeway2320 NZ smashed themselves with Ian Foster. England were jsut there
You are right about this series, unlike previous years the outcome is very much unknown.
We’re all anticipating this rebuild era under Razor and perhaps you’ll know a few of the ABs names, based on their efforts, a little better after this series.
Back in black.
hey Jim, kiwi here. Think AB's v Eng will be tight, 8 points. Enjoy the USA, Make Rugby Great Again!
“Old rugby historians” lol you guys crack up. Good summary Jim and Co. Go ABs!!
Firstly, there’s never been a better time for rugby related content and Big Jim here and the weekly Rugby Pod show lead the pack (shout to Alfie and co at The Ruck too!), so much better than GBR.
Jim gives a very fair assessment of this England squad and there’s some very, very good players coming through and, importantly, are starting to settle, are all showing excellent form and under Borthwick, are not constrained by some limiting game plan as England were under Jones.
England have every reason to be optimistic and if they play as they have been, then I think this squad can make a big statement on this tour.
It’s funny, although I’m from NZ I always think of South Africans when I think of the greatest players of all time, like Gerber, Botha, Os, Matfield, Schalk Burger and so on.
Mate 😂 Hand your fecking citizenship in.
Player of the year from SA?
Great video again Big Jim!
ABs won't disappoint. They never do. Eng will have to do it all to win.
Stephen Perofeta at full-back and TJ Perenara playing as the 9 are the most surprising selections to me, thought it would be BB and Christie respectively, don't think they'll be too much in it in terms of the result, AB's to sneak it
Yessss I'm with the big J on Mr Martin being a beast however this could possibly be their chance England, positively thinking
Can’t wait for this game
The fron row off the bench for abs will be amazing if amua can hit throws, plus when tamati comes in and iose possibly couple years big mobile units whole front row
For the first 12 minutes of the show I thought you were going for an England win, which even as a fan was confusing me.. the last 2 minutes redeemed it all, we have strong bones if a really good team but we're a couple of years and some props away from being there yet.. accurate laser 2 mins, a narrow loss and a good performance sounds right to me...
I don’t think the team is in transition. We are weak at 9 but that’s as Roigard is injured. 15 too but Jordan is injured. DMac was the backup to Richie. He’s class. Scooter and Vaai were at the WC. Hardly a transition.The game will be won up front as always. Backrows cancel each other out. But front 5, especially front 3, the ABs are significantly better. So they’ll win and win well.
Of course it's transition 😂
this is England's big chance to make history
England average 14 turnovers a game in 6 nations. If they do that they lose. They will need to halve that.
It is , but I suspect with nz there will be a change of attitude with the new coach,
I don’t think they will be the vulnerable team that Ireland faced when they won their first series there,
England will need to be better than Ireland was imo
This is England's best chance of winning this weekend because the All Blacks are usually rusty in their first match, haven't played since the RWC final, new coach and several new players.
agreed!@@wellingtonian2009
This series might come a bit too soon for this England team. NZ will be rusty no doubt but the question is for how long... I hope its a test for the ages
AB fan. Subbed.
Razor wants to build a big mobile ball playing forward pack. This All Blacks forward pack will evolve over the next few years into something different.
Spot on Big Jim
Getting there nicely
do your thing
much appreciated
• Tomorrow WILL bring a few HUGELY important answers
STACKS to look forward to
Exciting times
•• I’m surprized you do’nt give England a chance whilst the AB’s are yet to settle and gell as a Team
Enjoy‼️👊🔥🥂
🪖
Great show Jim enjoy the banter but not as much as i will enjoy if the All Blacks manage to pound the english forward pack into a thousand peices , gonna be a good one 💪👁💯🔥
When was the last time the ABs pounded the English forwards into the dust?
@@jstone5239every time they play ab in nz
@@thomaswebby2 like in 2003 when England won with 13 players on the pitch?
ABs front 3 will probably dominate England over the 80, but I think our loose forwards will more than stand up to their opposite numbers as they did against SA in the WC SF.
Eng are better prepared. It'll be a clean sweep series to Eng
Englishman here, not a chance haha. We’d be very happy with a sneaky first test win.
Lol😂, appreciate your positivity, sounds like a football supporter that supports England, been waiting since 1966, you can take the mick out of me if you’re right, but I believe I will be laughing 😂
1-1 I reckon. NZ surely will win a test match but I can sense an upset here. Nothing against ABs they have serious talent but I there are so many top quality players in England that are starting to click, that itll make the games super close. It'll be a cracking series regardless 🤘
Really, New Zealand 2 to nil different class.
a Canterbrarian Barrett as captain. that feels so right 🖤🖤🤍🖤🖤
Hope England at least match NZ
Fed up of hearing past players rating chessum
Everyone at home keep seeing a player sat on his backside after a missed tackle.
If this team does well,he could be an after thought
😆
You're right! He's overrated as a player. Would like to see Coles or even CCS move up to lock to let in Curry or Willis if available.
NZ scrum gunna fold them, and the NZ bench are excellent scrummagers. Ardie leading a mean group and the back line with dmac will b e moving the ball around
Waiting for Finau lastest hits👍👍👍👍
Prediction - If England lose by 15 points they will have done very well
Nahhh... 🤫🐒
Good luck (taken)
Go the ABs
Not a big fan of NZ but a huge DMac fan .
Massive fan of Beaver
😂🤣
Wrong part of UA-cam for your preferences! 😂
Fifty-five eighteen to Razor's very coooool All Blacks... The Poms won't know how to keep the score down.
All blacks and 1970’s Walsh halves
Jordy hasn’t played 13
The all black bench is so strong and the potential front row of the future is huge and skillful
This is good English team.Marcus Smith is good player.The All Blacks have the best front rowers in the world.
Aumua is best running Hooker in the World and he can really scrum.
Go the All Blacks.
Marcus could be good to go …. Bit like Dmac skills
I dont buy the "Rebuilding" idea in the sense of the team. Over half the players named played in that RWC final. But the coaching with be a factor and obviously the difference in cohesion as its the start of our International season.
The best English teams couldn't win there...they are getting pumped
The best English team actually won there
It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt. Mark Twain.
Long as amua can get his line out throws hit, when you see him on field and open play watch the fuck out outside channell nightmare
Love watching that guy play 😂
I am gonna call it and if i am wrong here come back to the comment and let me know and i will admit i was wrong but i got NZL to win by amarigin of 25-30 points. I just think NZL under razor is gonna beso scary! I have watched Super Rugby the last 9 years without missing a game and alot even before that just not weekly and Razor has the secret sauce the only problem i see is his impact will take a few months. His appointment is defs 4 years to late. He would have developed the squad very well from 2020-2023 but oh well he will have to just work a little harder to undo the foster era of shite.
But mark my words if he can undo the foster era of shite which will take time (because image if he took over in 2020, the 2024 all blacks would wipe england by 60) he will turn nzl into the og all blacks where they will lose 1 in every 15 - 17 games!
These guys are failing to discuss a most important factor- season. Nz/aus players are mid season- mid winter- been playing 4 months and are peaking in their fitness & skills- the European guys are at the end of a very long season. Performance always drops off at the end and they need to rest and freshen up. Nz/AUS teams are always lesser when touring Europe on an end of season tour - with SA they are all over the place & who knows- seasonality is the reason tours down under are hard - really hard
I think it'll be within a converted try
Wow as a kiwi i don't think the AB's will win the first test in Dunners because of the rust factor and not been together long enough to fully work out the set pieces etc,i think we will win the second test though
Jim's a massive fan of Stephen Donaldson 😂
After last night they will have to wait till the next tour...Never won a series against NZ period. Now 8-0 New Zealand
Not a world cup, it's test rugby in a tiny little weatherproof stadium. No wind, fast dry track. Need to score tries to beat NZ at home if England can do that then good luck to em.
Hard to call? Haha, #remind me in 2 days
historically the poms only have one good game against the ABs per decade 😂
So the game in London was their last one 🤣
So true mate.
Barrett captain not Ardie, Ardie can’t stay on the bloody paddock.
Its scary to think ABs have 2 145kg props who are mobile (former loose forwards) who couldnt even make the bench this week, thats an ominous sign in and of itself.
420 KG front row- all mobile- wow
England need to go the biff - no worries
Fun fact. The English Nation has been around longer than the Māoris!
I reckon 1-1 .
If they try to beat NZ with a running game, they will lose , nobody beats NZ , with a running game, they are the masters at that. They will jump on any mistakes England will make during their running game and believe me they will make it when under pressure on defence and be certain, they will be under pressure 😅
England beat NZ in 2019, by playing a clever combination of running and territory.
@@thereader6667 one up for me 😀
A close game but the ABs will dominate England.
The All Blacks in New Zealand 🇳🇿 to beat is no easy task but let’s be honest this is no Bok team it’s a England 🏴 team and not a strong England 🏴 team the POMS are going to get hammered
Jim!...It's new. New old son...not nu
Nobody has dismantled the ABs in the last decade like the English did in the 2019 semi final. This is going to be a tough close game.
The All Blacks walked straight into an ambush Eddie Jones the street fighter of world rugby did his due diligence the Abs had no answer they were check mate but that was 2019 this is 2024
@rodeo4786 nah, ABs had the cattle, they just didn't turn up. Just as against the bokke in London last year. England are a very good team, probably favourites.
@geofflecren8827
Didn't turn up don't agree England were not that technically superior they new the Abs playbook infinitely apply confrontational borderline rush D pressure to throw them off their rhythm and attack and dominate the collision area ie the ruck the Abs had No answer every move was countered and that was Eddie whom was obsessed with beating the Abs had plotted over a year for this moment such was his obsession but unfortunately didn't have a game plan for the springboks and was defeated a week later in the final
Did you forget when the Boks ground us down into paste @ Twickenham last year?
The ABs biggest defeat ever 35-7
@laurieclark6652
Who can forget it that wasn't a Paisting that was a hiding but they certainly redeemed themselves in the RWC Final regardless of the outcome the mana in the black jersey was restored and so was the pride in the nation
A recent poll in NZ asked who the AB's hate losing to the most and England was the winner..and England won't win this one.
Razor said he picked the for England and I think if the AB's win by 3, we'll all be happy.
"They are going to win the set piece" ... what? Easy as that? Who is this guy talking to Jim that so easily dismisses the fwd contest?
Exactly. England are in for a massive wake up call. ABs will monster them up front and shred them out back.
Disagree on the ABs midfield. They average at best. And a liability for them against the big teams. 13 is a world class winger who butchers his centre lines after years in the position. Still can't martial the defense. 12 is a world class fullback but doesn't have the foot work for 12. Both are talented wonderfull players, but not their best positions. They both go backwards under pressure. NZ has better centres. If England are smart they will target the AB midfield. Dmack at 10 against a big team that isn't a super rugby side that can't tackle where ehe can't run his way out of trouble is another opportunity for England. Are England smart or just formulaic? Let's see. NZ will be up for this like never before.
Cos we 've been the winningest team in world rugby for 100 yrs no I number. 2 you don't have to go tooo far back in history to remember the ab's winning 2 wc's and being number 1 for 8 yrs so a bit disingenuous for Jim to talking about them as a fond memory lol!
Really dont think England have the front row to win convincingly .
England aren't mean, they are betas. They won't beat Italy, now you're talking about them beating the best rugby nation, come on little jim
I PREDICT THE ALL BLACKS WILL RAGDOLL THE ENGLISH MORRIS DANCERS. RAZOR IS THE GREATEST COACH EVER. KIWIS AT HOME WILL EASILY BEAT THE FLOWERS.
