They couldn't have played much worse.  If that was a sober performance, they
might as well give up trying to beat the top teams of the World.  They would
have a 100% success if they only play against Japan.

When it comes to knowing rugby players even Mitchell has claimed that he
could well be looking for yet another player to captain the All Blacks.
Doesn't show much confidence in Thorne, no more than he's shown in his
previous All Black captains.
