Romane Ménager en lice pour le titre de Joueuse du Six-Nations 2024

Again, he is simply putting his own opinion forward after others had commented on him compared to, not only their 10's, but how well Argentina and South Africa are playing in general. That is the volume of criticism laid on McKenzies feet, which is the article I think criticisms are more worth of being placed. At least Ben is comparing apples with apples. I also suggest you watching the English games to get a better perspective of how well he can play in varying games. He might not have looked completely assured in those games (his first at getting a run at 10) but he executed superbly and hardly made a mistake.

AS has been playing for a decade, where rugby has changed drastically and the 9 position in particular has changed a lot, but he manage to keep up and has been the best 9 in the world since 2014.

RI is just arrogant and funny, let it go.

Same goes for S.Cane

Better than DMac in every way.

Quicker, better step, longer boot, more accurate off the tee, better playmaking, better vision, bigger, better under high ball, better game management.

say you are a cheifs fan without saying it aye?

But I'm also basically telling you you're not going to see him starting all three, let alone the rest lol

Wasn't blackadder terrible yesterday, do you give him the same returning from injury allowance? I wouldn't don't want that anywhere near the AB team!

I want to remove the knock on, it creates too much mess and whats the point? Only the deliberate knock on/intercept like, law remains, think the game would ever accept that lol

I think they have always preferred to give their opponents a chance to run the ball back at them, yes. What is being see is that it's not successful these days (mostly because other teams are much more confident playing like NZ these days), and the kick chase is being critised as inaccurate. I'm not buying that, at least not yet. Beauden certainly didn't achieve anything better did he?

Yeah, interesting. I'm not really sure what number best reflects what I like, but on review I do see the number increasing for runs. The games they were in control, England series and the first SA test, they were 1:6 or under. The game at Eden Park in the pouring rain they showed the ability to control the game by foot at 1:4 (1:8, like you say, the previous week).

Really interesting. I'm not going to even begin to give a cause for that, they weren't behind in the Eden Park loss, but only had 4 22 entries. They may have lost structure towards the end but it could also have just been the change at 9 to Ratima that changed the kicking dynamic game to game.

I've heard a few grand but obviously that could be in anything. Yeah I think they'd give a quote based on what you use it for?
