Joe Marler set to start in his final ever match of professional rugby

They are not saying that France are uncomfortable playing away from home.

They are saying that by not sending their top players on foreign tours, the best French players are not exposed enough to the uncomfortable conditions of foreign test matches to win a world cup on foreign soil.

Essentially, France will have a better chance of winning a world cup if their top players are given more opportunities to play test matches in foreign countries.

Kiwi coaches have destroyed the fabric of rugby in Wales and they are out to do it to Australia as well.

The All Blacks have dominated the game, haka practice didn’t seem to be a factor then.

Unfortunately, Maori culture is a part of your identity as a New Zealander. You don’t have to acknowledge it or like it; you do you.

But it’s a part of us.

The haka before the game is an expression of us all as a people.

I have my issues with it, but it’s unlikely to change.

The players can see what is going on, just as they could eventually see it with Deans and Rennie.

Schmidt is not trying to do his best for Australia and nor were Deans or Rennie.

The players aren't stupid. They can however see that the selections are stupid. They know the defence is rubbish. They know they are not getting the opportunity to run some brilliant Australian backline set moves.

It's over for Schmidt already imo. He'll scurry back to his smail in NZ after the tour to count his silver leaving the Wallabies in Australia.

He clearly has a lack of commitment to Australia.

Kiwi coaches have decimated enthusiasm for rugby in Wales. Why would a Welsh kid aspire to play for a kiwi ? They are going to do the same to Australia if we don't get rid of them. They are scheming wreckers.

Asking Hamish to go back to England is juvenile, like asking you to go back to Tahiti/England. The Allblacks are not a team to please a few people that want to divide NZ.
