Nah, Kiwis have you blokes absolutely lapped in that regard. A literal international team spine under a successful international coach with an entire loving country to themselves and they just keep finding ways to get worse.

To be fair, that country is New Zealand.

Is anyone surprised?

The question becomes, who's the replacement?

Is Mal doing anything at the moment? He's done pretty well at Origin in the past...

That would have been an insane try on half-time but I think he came from outside the field so not to be.

I know, right. Completely hosed the match up.

Can't wait for the like dozen players we've signed to turn up and cut this lot of dead wood. Even if they turn out to be poo poo they can't be much worse than some of these fringe reserve grade players.

Who would be the one to replace him?

Neil Henry might be a good buy, maybe bring a bit of order to lethargic chaos?
