’The critique extends to the selection decisions, particularly in the back five of the scrum, where New Zealand's lack of size compared to teams like South Africa and Australia has been a disadvantage. Mexted argued that the All Blacks do not possess the necessary physical stature in their locks and back-rowers to compete aerially with the world’s best.’

Hmmmmm I think he might want to rethink that
Holland is 2.04m and 124kg
Barrett is 1.99m and 119kg
Tuipulotu is 2m and 120kg
Vaai is 1.98m and 118kg
Parker is 1.97m and 117kg
Considering we start with Eben, Nortje and PSDT with Nortje at 114kg
Fool
How many of those players started against the Boks.
Wake up you fucking idiot
Im quoting the height and weight of the players in the AB squad that play 4,5 & 7
You dumb prick
And even if NZ had parity up front, they certainly don't have parity with us at the back...
Who from NZ would you pick ahead of Kolbe, Willemse, Sacha, Moodie, Hooker, Williams, AE, Arendse.
Their 9 is the only one I'd have, maybe.
It's a serious problem.
Very keen to see how they go on the EOYT. I think everybody smells blood in the water and feels like they can beat NZ now. It's the perfect opportunity for NZ to prove their metal.
For sure we are the better side but my point is Mexted is speaking shit about the height and size of the Kiwi players
Dave and Chip's bro(keback)speaks is becoming one of the new highlights of the forum.
Got to love Chip chip
