[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 769959, member: 20605"] I'm looking forward to seeing how the All Blacks will deal with the loss of the super six. Not so much of a worry with Kevin Mealamu as he has become specialist bench hooker over the last couple of years, Dane Coles has the starting position nailed down and Codie Taylor really looks like the goods for a second hooker. Similarly, I think we'll be OK with replacement players for Dan Carter (Aaron Cruden, Beauden Barrett), Ritchie McCaw (Matt Todd, Sam Cane) and Tony Woodcock (Joe Moody, Wyatt Crockett). Its replacing Ma'a Nonu and Conrad Smith that could be problematic; how do you replace the world's most experienced and successful midfield combination? Their departure leaves a big hole in the midfield for next year (especially as SBW will be playing in the sevens in 2016). So, what will the All Blacks' 12/13 look like for next year Crotty - Fekitoa? Fekitoa - Moala? Ngatai - Fekitoa? I think all four will be in the mix. [/QUOTE]
