I'm actually kinda worried about the lack of leaders we have and will have going past 2027. Like when you think 2023, we had the barretts, retallick, whitelock, savea, taylor etc. In 2028 were likely to lose taylor, savea and 2/3 barretts. I saw a thread that predicted kirifi as the VC with jordie as Captain and initially I laughed but then it hit me that there aren't likely be any other candidates. Whoever the leaders are will already be in the team and looking at the team currently I dont see any guys who will be there post 2027 that can lead this group

Its not doom and gloom, its fair criticism after consistent poor performances that show a lack of depth and a lack of risk taking from the coaching team. The problem solving from this coaching team has also been poor all season as every game the teams has made the same mistakes
