You mean "flatulent"? That would marry up with the sh*t that he
writes.

I really dislike the term 'counter rucking' but its how NZ beat
us yesterday. It seems in the SH you can ruck ( in old money)
and as long as you pick up or pull up any ball defending players
its allowed. I'm all for it and we should be better at it or at
least incorporate it into our plan. Next week , the first ruck
behind their 10m line, all drive in 'gently' removing ball
defenders and see if its allowed. If not a non 3 pt pen, but at
least we know where we stand. They must have done it 4 or 5
times yesterday, whereas we didn't do it once. For me this was
the winning diference as they disrupted very promising attacking
positions every time wirh this well thought through tactic! If
we copy it and its allowed we could easily beat them at their
own game.

I would guess that the expectation is that he'll do nothing more
than hold tackle bags but whoever goes out is an injury away
from playing at Eden Park.

Iyogun's very good, though. No harm having him be the third
choice option on the tour.

Forgot about Rapava-Ruskin. He wasn’t far away really a year or
so ago and would have been a great option. Not sure if he’s
still injured? I know he had issues last season. I imagine as
long as there’s no injuries mid week training etc we will see
Baxter start and Rodd on the bench but nice trip away for the
Saints lad

I was trying to find out if VRR was hurt. He seems to have been
close to a come back for most of the end of the season but
didn't actually play.
