Profile for Juggernauter

NZ's got Aaron Smith, Tawera Kerr-Barlow and TJ Perenara vying for the no. 9 shirt and can possibly field two world class XVs. What on earth do they feed kids over there!

I guess it's fair to say that Saint André had his hands a bit more tied than McKenzie. Europe's best side, Toulon, was almost comically made up almost only by foreigners, and he had little combinations to pick from, not a lot of youngsters coming threw, very few first choice club level goal kickers who were actually french, and not many french players with big game experience and tight combinations. »

The AB's were absolutely brilliant and ruthless. Bit you've got to feel that Mckenzie shot himself in the foot with some of his selections. Yes, there were a couple of injured or unavailable players, so I'll just focus on the ones taht he could have got better. The front five is as good as they could muster, but wat's with Wycliff Palu? Great for the Waratahs but almost a ghost when playing for Australia, specially against the All Blacks - time to give Scott Higginbotham a shot. He's a good tackler, great carrier and has cut his penalty count (which was a ral let down of his game) so he isn't a dangerous player to have around anymore. »

Excellent documentary. Really interesting to get a look at the mind of the Aus rugby fan... i was in OZ last year and was amazed at how union could only get the back pages while league got sick coverage, I mean it was EVERYWHERE. Let's hope it gets back on track, and with guys like Hooper and Folau on the pitch, Cheika and Mckenzie in the coaching roles, Pulver at the ARU (an institucutio than had to be heavily cleaned) and a guy like Maloney on the mic it looks in a good position. »
