You know, I think Steve Hansen and some of that sort of old leadership group.

I just shake my head here on New Zealand rugby.

I heard Steve Lancaster last week on Sport Nation, and he talked about some of the issues facing New Zealand rugby.

It's getting harder and harder for the All Blacks to win at an international level.

It's harder and harder for the All Blacks from a revenue point of view.

And I just sit there and go, well, hang on a

And it's going to get a lot harder to win as an All Black team if you're not going to pick your best players.

Now, some of your best players, whether we like it or not, are overseas.

Why cannot we pick these guys?

You know, your cash cow is the All Blacks.

It's the All Black brand.

You need your All Black team to be back winning 80-85%.

They can talk up all they want.

We see this every week about how much they care about Super Rugby, the domestic game.

They don't.

It is simply an all-black trial.

If you cared about the domestic game in this country, why the hell don't want Sky, want MPC?

Why the hell is it that we continue to rest and rotate our top players at a Super Rugby level week in, week out?

God, previously we've pulled them out for bloody all-black camps, mate.

We're now talking about having an Anzac Day test, which again is going to disrupt this game.
