Is the All Blacks captaincy right for Scott Barrett?

Their professionalism, transparency, and personalized approach set them apart in the realm of digital asset recovery services. Throughout the entire journey of recovering my funds, the team at Hack Savvy Company demonstrated  their technical prowess . Those 36 bitcoins represented my hard-earned savings, accumulated over years of diligent work and strategic investments. When I thought they were gone forever, Hack Savvy Company's expertise not only brought back my digital assets but also restored my faith in the security of cryptocurrency.Their ability to navigate the complexities of cryptocurrency recovery with precision and efficiency is truly commendable.

Commentator's reason for backing Billy Proctor-Barrett combination in the AB's

Proctors defence is great. All that can be said is it hasn't been under a much pressure at international level because he hasn't had the chance. But there's no argument that ioanes defense is better. His topend is faster, no doubt.

Is the All Blacks captaincy right for Scott Barrett?

Falling victim to a cryptocurrency scam left me feeling angry and helpless after losing a substantial amount of my savings. I believed my funds were gone for good until I found Botnet Crypto Recovery, a team that not only retrieved my assets but restored my hope. From the start, they demonstrated both competence and compassion, actively listening to my story while providing clear, actionable solutions. Unlike other firms, they maintained transparency with their fees and timelines, which immediately put me at ease. Their recovery strategy was impressive, employing advanced blockchain analysis to navigate the complexities of the scam. They customized their approach rather than using generic methods and kept me informed with regular updates, making sure I understood the process. Even when faced with challenges, their adaptability shone through as they revised their tactics and collaborated with cybersecurity experts. In under a month, Botnet Crypto Recovery retrieved about 95% of my stolen cryptocurrency, a surreal moment I once thought impossible. They also provided me with valuable advice on securing future transactions, turning my traumatic experience into a learning opportunity. Their commitment to integrity and ethical practices reinforced my trust in them.

Botnet Crypto Recovery is indispensable. My experience with them proved that recovery is not just possible—it’s likely. Contact them directly.

Glasgow hit back at Stephen Donald's 'absolutely unfounded' comments

Love how Kiwis think that being an AB automatically makes you the best in the world. ABs have lost four times in a row to the Boks, and three times in a row to France. Lost a series at home to Ireland. Beaten by Argentina at home. Golden years are a distant memory.

How 'misunderstood' Rassie Erasmus is rolling back the clock

I tend to agree Ed. Even though we’ve asked repeatedly in diff ways, RW has nothing but his own idea of legal theory and Doyle’s wonderings in a paper to support the idea that the bench split will even be a topic of discussion at the next meeting.


Apart from anything else, recents events have shown that guys like Jegou and Earl are quite capable of being classified as either a forward or a back, which gives the lie to a strict 5/3 division in any case.


What are WR going to say? ‘Ben Earl cannot sub on for a forward if he’s been selected as a backs utility’? Or vice versa. That would be beyond stupid.

I don't disagree. I'd be very surprised if Ford got picked… but he wouldn't let anyone down, he’s a quality ten and Farrell knows him well. Borthwick shouldn't have brought a ten with no gametime off the bench when England were already going well. Bringing Ford off the bench was a huge mistake but it was Borthwick's mistake. Ford is good.

Who cares if he played for Waikato? Wasn’t he part of the Chiefs team that lost 61-17 in the Super Rugby final against the Bulls? Man’s a born loser trying find relevance as a pundit. His nickname sums it up: He’s a complete Beaver.
