There is going to be one out of nowhere selection in his first squad that'll have us going "?????" But by 5 gamed in he'll be everyone's favorite.

He's good for one every year. My early pick for that is Cameron Suafoa.

THAT should be a betting pool.

also only 1 selection in his squad having us all go ???? would be a HUGE improvement on the pre shmidt foz experience :D

People are going to throw a fucking fit when he selects fucking Du Plessis Kirifi or something and then he turns out to be way better than we thought he was. They'll say it's worse than Fozzie, because they just don't know.

Can't wait.

i like DPK but his height is something of an issue i think.

Kirifi is actually so good but does some really dumb stuff sometimes. I wouldn't bet against it tbh

He’s SO FUCKEN COMMITTED. I think an ABs camp at least would get him moving in the right direction

For some reason Brumbies games have a tendency to have more lively crowds than usual, hooenyou enjoy it mate!

I guarantee the Aussie media will be sports hating Razor by Christmas 2024 lmao They'll find a way. Razor vs Eddie is going to be mad.

Oh I'm sure he'll have an interview segment filmed and ready for the pre-game of an Aussie super rugby game this year where they all fawn over him loke we are with Razor rn and he'll give a little jab. No way he can resist.

Mark Telea. World famous in Auckland. Soon to be the world.

Wasted talent if 80% of his job is kick chase

u/StumpinMeatLeg Mar 21 '23

Hey, Jonah Lomu was a one trick pony.

Totally excellent trick though.
