Can they just lend all their good players to the other SA teams until they get their house in order?

Everyone knows Robertson is not supposed to be doing the coaching

SB were pretty rough in Fosters days.

Sorry meant to say JJ could just come straight in and replace Hansen (especially if Razor has not had to run his own game plan and strategy for a long while.

'100 caps… 1 incident': Bok great Bryan Habana condemns Etzebeth's act but defends player

JGP is still worth 2 players so you've got that wrong.

I hate to think the boks are regressing back to type. Sack grabbing, eye gouging…

The potential route to the Rugby World Cup final for the top 6 teams

Ireland were ranked 6 or 7 for their draw in 23 WC.

You said that NZ’s draw in 2027 was as bad as SAs in 2023

I dont buy the “coach can only do so much” nonsense.

It's true that the coach can't make a player do their job, but they can certainly drop players and select ones that bring the right skills and attitude. Its the coach's job to debug the problem and find solutions. If the players are frustrated and saying they don't know what's wrong then the answer is that they don't have the right coach.

Can Bath fly the flag for England to disrupt French domination of the Champions Cup?

How english centric rugbypass is becoming. As a scot I'm not expecting glasgow but how can you look beyond Leinster rather than Bath as the main threat and for the rest of the “other nations” I would hope for a winner outwith England or france and it has to be said the Top 14 is class

Sharks name B-team for French giants as Plumtree exit fast-tracked

It depends on the team. Toulouse always field their top players in the Champions cup, including the group stages. This is my opportunity to watch Dupont et al live - I have a ticket for the Saracens game in Jan., so I’m not complaining. Only a few teams have a realistic chance of winning, so the B team phenomenon isn’t surprising, especially given the huge workload. Add to that the variability in form from season to season, for example, last year Exeter Chiefs were kept off the foot of the Prem by Newcastle and their presence in the Champions Cup was much criticised, while this year, when they’re flying high, they’re not qualified for it.

The La Rochelle v Leinster x2 and the Toulouse v Leinster finals have been outstanding, and to build up to them, there needs to be some sort of competition and selection process. Ideally, I’d trim the competition a bit, but I’ve no complaints if some clubs opt to rest their senior players and send out youngsters - it’s one way of ensuring player welfare, they certainly shouldn’t be fined. Fans know the score, and don’t need to buy tickets if they’re not interested.

Dan Carter weighs in with balanced analysis of Scott Robertson's All Blacks

Agree. He did not come out with obvious that no prospects have been tried in his old position at 10 re Crusaders winner this year Rivez Reihana, Edgecombe, Reuben Love etc. Beauden Barrett is finished. Damien McKenzie is brilliant off the bench and as a utility. But Richie Mo’unga is streets ahead of the competition as a specialist 10. The “competition” , when it comes to that position there is no “competition”.

Well i just watched the Stormers Bayonne game and Stormers beat Bayonne. So who knows, maybe he has a point. Anyways, we gotta focus on La Rochelle next weekend. That will hopefully give us a booster, La Rochelle beating us in the play off match two years ago. We need to beat them back.

Four things on Razor's 2025 All Blacks Christmas wish list

Beauden Barrett with all the points and test matches behind him. He has never been a great pivot. Richie Mo’unga out played him regularly at 10 during the seven year run for the Crusaders. As for this second placing behind Daniel Carter

that regularly gets touted, is complete rubbish. Andrew Mehrtens was a far super tactician , goal kicker and runner at 10. His clutch moments for Canterbury and the Crusaders are so many. 1994 , winning penalty against Otago in Shield match for Canterbury , Super Rugby winning penalty for the Crusaders v Brumbies 2000. He also controlled masterfully the 1998 and 1999 Super Rugby away wins v Blues and Highlanders. Do not give me World Cup winning medals as a measure either. Barretts best rugby was off the bench re 2015. Many great players in other sports have not been in World Cup winning teams , especially when you look at football. In 1995 at the WC Final in South Africa, Mehrtens was crook like the rest of the team. I can only hope Richie Mo’unga gets another crack in 2027.
