  1. Should we be talking drop goal ? Thats been out Achilles in wcs yet no one has mentioned it

  2. The Cheese just telling it how it is…

    Billy Proctor over RTS all day

  3. I'm a huge rugby fan from Portugal and I do love super rugby but I just hate how everything to kiwi media has to do with the All Blacks. Super Rugby is made of 12 teams, not just the kiwi ones and yet this show acts like only the kiwi franchises exist. And that's not the only problem, the act like the franchises only exist to feed the All blacks. If you want people to watch Super Rugby, then treat it like a true competition instead of a training ground for your national team. If even the "experts" don't care about Super Rugby, why should the fans care?

    Treat Super Rugby like the amazing competition that it is, talk about australian teams, comment on the games instead of who is going to be all black coach for next year and many more things you can do to improve rugby in new zealand that sadly is dying

  4. Everytime Jeff Wilson opens his mouth, he shows his ignorance and a basic lack of common sense. It shows while ex-All Blacks were great players, their views shouldn’t be taken seriously regarding other topics.

  5. Crazy to finally hear Sualii pronounced right. League needs someone who actually knows Islander pronounciations. I laugh at the whole thing as the League media are blasting Sualii at going to Union when League clubs were offering the "world". How ironic that he goes to a sport that really is "worldwide".

  6. As good as Billy Proctor and Nankeville is. They will sadly miss out because Fozzie is too staunch in his picks. Hopefully these 2 get the call up because something needs to change in that team.

  7. They say the players are worn out playing this year. Blame the COVID boosters, not the new rules.

  8. You have just proved Foster right. First announced new couch while him in office, now discussion is about assistant coaches? What next week? Razor team selections? Then Razor tactics? Then World Cup 2027? 😅 You throw Foster under the bus hey? Talk as if he doesn't exist?

    Foster must do new job hunting now already 😅 why must he care about World Cup 2023? His office is probably cleared in NZ already. Razor busy decorating and changing name plate on the door.😅

  9. John Kirwan being defensive and sensitive about Brandon Smith's tongue n cheek comments shows you are out of touch. The NRL community supports Sualii going to Rugby and Smith complimented the All Blacks naturally. Cmon JK

  10. Hey jk razor has international experience when he coached the Barbarians vs All Black's xv which he won

  11. Finally Proctor getting his due. He should’ve been in the ABXV last year. He reminds me a lot of Conrad Smith with a bit more attacking prowess. Solid and dependable in defence which is a must. Always seems to be exactly where he needs to and always seems to pop up in an attacking break. He’s our next AB centre in my opinion, I hope he stays healthy.

  12. Most of the games I've seen , the first 8 are playing with the ball in hand that leads to fatigue thus you have injuries occuring more frequently , the backs only get involved in high speed running where injuries are less
    If the first 8 Keep running into brick walls you eventually will feel pain , this is called mother nature

  13. Super or international is not a problem for a coach. The chemistry is still playing when the street lights come on

  14. Just curious as to how short the pants can get this season on the panel.
    They'll be in bike shorts in a few weeks.

  15. Both Rugby and League have never been in better situation where players can play both codes… I'm a fan for women to be involve because JK is right the women's game is different than the mens in professionalism and crowd attendance..

  16. Why we bothering with the new laws? The Europeans will never want a fast game, they won't win and they control it all.

  17. Regards comparing us to the Northern Hemisphere game, bring on our Refs who have been there recently for their views on the next program. They have had a direct view of what's happening North and Super Pacific games.

  18. This show needs Tony Johnson to appear more often..far more interesting and insightful show when he gives his views and analysis

  19. Love this. It's always a great chat.
    But it's serious eyes off the ball stuff. As fun as super rugby is to watch, every D coach should be sacked.

  20. Richie Mounga has been the best 10 in the game for the past weeks and you go and put Dmack there! I think not, Jordie Barretts average asf and so is Sam Cane, Umaga Jensen is the best 12 in the game atm wtf
