It's a gift to have a midweek opportunity.
Do you know what I mean?
In the black jersey, you're in that environment, but the expectation is obviously that you win, but it's not...
to the extent of a test match.
And getting those little runs on the ball, like sometimes it's like every three years we play the bar bars and that's an opportunity.
You remember Jerome Kainoa was sort of found out of those.
I think, you know, having that, the All Black environment is intense.
Like there is just no off.
If you're not on rugby, there's commercial responsibilities.
If it's not that, you know, you've got to go do signing sessions.
Yeah, you've got to come on Aotearoa Rugby Pod.
It is just a relentless beast.
being able to experience that and then not be thrown into the lion's den is you know it's it's a huge benefit and something that players should embrace like everyone wants to start I get it playtest matches like I was the worst at it but actually having that time you know I think it was like
something like 17 to 20 games, I sat on the bench and didn't get on.
Kevi played the 80 minutes, he was the captain.
And at the time, of course, I was like, this sucks.
But it was actually the best thing for me because I learned so much throughout that experience that when I actually got my crack, I could deliver.
Versus, hey, here's 20 minutes because you're beating the force by plenty and you don't quite nail it.
I just think that experience, and it goes back to that, are we worried about players leaving?
It's just a different beast, test match footy.
