First-half scores from Peato Mauvaka and Matthis Lebel put the hosts 10-0 ahead at the break in the last-16 tie at Stade Ernest-Wallon.

Paul Costes and Pita Ahki crossed to give Toulouse complete control before Racing finally got on the scoresheet six minutes from time through Eddy Ben Arous’ consolation try, which was converted by Tristan Tedder.

Two starting debuts and two timely returns for All Blacks against Bulls

Well I had a good discussion with I think it was TwoCents about impact, and what impact actually means. I think that’s what were after but as the likes of Rassie and Wellington are showing us it doesn’t have to evolve around the simple aspect of fresher forwards, which I know is something you understand and what you’re saying.

You’ve mentioned it many times and I agree the likes of Ardie, Scooter, even Lakai as bench options options, have a pure, higher intensity impact threshold than other players. All three are quality starting options. They just have the knack for involving themselves in a game and reaching a state of mind where they can unleash, unrelentingly.

Tom Wright, without a doubt, is the most gutless defender in Australian rugby. Not just for the Wallabies, but anyone playing club rugby and above. I’m so sick of watching him soak up so much momentum in defence once contact is made.

Get him off and put one someone who is willing to put something into their tackles. Defensively, he is by far our biggest liability.

Yes I think if the provincial teams provided a sterner test it would have been better.

The Bulls at least look to be a bit of a sterner test.

rugby instincts; Wilson had it in spades, and I think Moorby has too. Ioane and Clarke are good, but not great. Carter probably the latter bunch too.

Fantastic piece, John. It’s rare that I have little extra to add but this is just one such occasion. You have said everything that needed to be said and your analysis as usual is spot on. When you look at things that way you can really see just how close they are to becoming a very dangerous side indeed.

Well so much can be said about Foster. We need to do something to make a difference in the last 25-35. Whether it’s 6-2 or building more hybrid players or something else - does not matter. But it is tiresome to yield the ground to the Boks. Ironically just watched the BOP

v Canterbury Shield challenge - great 80 minute rugby - should be bread and butter for ABs.

Are you inferring Rennie is responcible for Dmac, Proctor and Clarke being injured while playing? Surely not.

Call up Jamie Hannah ASAP.

With Vaa’i starting at blindside, the All Blacks have only 4 locks and desperately need a fifth lock for the Lions midweek match between first and second test so none of the 3 Test locks have to play in a midweek match.

I did, and noted the low tackle completion rates and teams rotating due to the low standard of opposition.

Didn't realise you thought the Reds would only play wider squad players??? But maybe you are right and the Reds will run the wider squad. The Reds are not lacking in the back 5…

Yeah that would be a complete change. As well as my thought about ensuring scoring potency we do like to utilize the power wing role and along with others style that introduces high risks for backs.

Utilizing forwards instead for that is a common option these days for sure but is not in the 6-2 discussion, it’s in the fundementals of how the team players. Simply choosing a 6-2 doesn’t automatically mean you’re then going to use those players (in roles) in place of backs.

Richie Mo'unga receives long-awaited All Blacks call-up

Funny you say that. Dont you remember the BB at 10 Dmac at 15 yrsts thru 2016-2018? Dmac selected 2 years ahead of Mounga. BB poty… twice. Yes as soon as Dmac got injured in 2019 SR and Hansen put rm to 10 and bb to 15. The win ratio dropped. And no coach since could get that combo to work.

We have talent. Bring it thru.

Exactly, especially if the quick play application is used. My point was if they fail (in an attempt to score), getting held up over the line is a really easy option (as the defenders are protecting against the try) to use to be awarded another quick tap so they can try again.

You basically have the endless plays at the goalline like where the problem before (just minus the scrumming part).
