Procter and Tupel in midfield.
They're both playing really good rugby this season.
They've got lots of options in the back three and midfield.
But they seem like they're going with the Rory Gardlove-Hurricanes at a halfback combo.
It's more high wire rugby.
It's more what the All Blacks have been playing before Robertson.
I think also that, I think Rennie's a really good coach.
What he did with Australia, Australia should never have got rid of him, Nathan.
It was just, it's one of the biggest mistakes any rugby union or federation has made in the professional era.
I mean, I don't doubt that Eddie Jones is an extraordinarily clever man and has been a brilliant coach, but...
He picked a squad for the 2027 World Cup ahead of the 2023 World Cup.

I don't know.
But it set Australian rugby back enormously.
I remember covering the Australian match against Ireland under Rennie.
And the way the players, Nick White and a lot of these players, spoke about Rennie.
