Watch: Jack Nowell's return sparks Exeter by slicing Castres to bits

That is some wishful thinking of course, so San Diego it will be again no doubt.

In the past I'm pretty sure teams like the Maori All Blacks have held test status for their oppositions, this needs to be extended to other All Black teams because you are not going to get the All Blacks sending a team to like Fiji were a B or C team could easily lose.

That is to say Fiji have received NZ XV teams etc, which will be the same players, from the B or C top side etc, but the game loses something, especially in their capacity to make money out of the All Black brand if theyre forced to play a team called New Zealand XV by WR. Essentially, if you haven't followed so far, WR to allow these types of fixtures to act like tests for one side, while the other can choose not to count it as a test (where currently a test game is a test game to my understanding). This will allow bigger nations to show much more freedom with the amount of T2 countries like Japan, and Italy etc they can play, let alone the USA or Georgia type team.

He's also already got Mo'unga I'd say, what he'd be asking of Robinson (or whoever takes over) is that the rules are bent to all his inclusion without first representing Canterbury. Razor will need a lot of good will spirit heading his own way if he selects Mo'unga to start in July against France.

When a Dupont-less, understrength B-team French outfit heads over to Aotearoa in July for a highly anticipated series down under, nothing less than a 3-0 sweep will suffice for the All Blacks. 

You aren't very good at sneaking a look at what's in the Xmas hamper around you Henry? If Toulouse somehow fluff one of their knockout games they will be able to tour (only players in the Final are excluded) and it will basically be Dupont's Toulouse versus all of New Zealand in July. They will be VERY hard to beat.

The old Christmas excitement gets the best of everybody. Personally I think Razor would be saving up backline wish for some creativity and spark till next Xmas. Mostly he'll wanting to stay in the good books and for fans to pay attention next year.

It seems like the idea of Ardie Savea moving to openside flanker is no longer on the table, and World Breakthrough 15’s Player of the Year Wallace Sititi seems to have locked down the number six jersey.

Ardie was selected as an openside flanker against France, two games ago. Dalton Papali'i is the incumbent though and while the jersey number is largely irrelevant, he might still want somebody to stand out in the 6 jersey next year.

It would be my own wish that Ardie is asked to be selected at 7 again, and play like a 7, though. I really hope that no one stands out in the 6 jersey for Razor though, so he's forced to think creatviely and move Scott Barrett there lol
