Star Munster duo will be available for selection for Leinster match

for 13 Joey manu has more x factor then reiko and jordie put togeather . he's got one season in japan before he looks to come home . he's a dark horse but his skill set is something the All Blacks don't have . if he comes home and lights up the npc in a game or 2 , id love to see him fast tracked and come off the bench for the All Blacks and thrown into the deep end to see if he can swim . Just to see if he's worth the time and effort to develop further . We all saw how good sualii did for the wallabies and joey manu is just as good as sualii . He's safe under the high ball , a solid defender , has a master offload , and he's fast and strong .

he fits the mould for razor's offload tactics .

Plus reiko and jordie have had the 12 & 13 for how long and I haven't seen anything special from either of them .

Israel have been relatively effective in carrying out genocide since October 7th. Before that it wasn't their goal, hence the long-term growth in the Palestinian population.

Glad to confirm that you openly do support genocide though.

Suspect El-Abd will have a lot of input here, as both the defence coach and the only member of the coaching staff with a background in the back-row, but I can't tell yet what he actually wants from his players!

Israel is a completely different situation. No one is trying to take any land away from Israel, apart from the idiots advocating a two state solution. The question is whether there should be democracy for everyone living in the land occupied by Israel, or whether it should continue to be a multi-tiered system with Israelis at the top and Palestinians at the bottom.

The problem for ALB is that he simply lacks the size, bulk, and power to be a world class test 12.

Both Havili and ALB should be dropped and replaced by two of Fainga'anuka, Lam, Tupaea, MacLeod, or Aumua.
