The next generation looks good enough to keep it up for another decade.
So much fail.

Foley was bad but he provides structure, something Cooper has no idea about. Cooper is all about himself, who cares about the team. Glad he was rubbish, might stop us picking him.
I would like to try Beale at 12 with Foley personally. I agree on Lilo though. I would have given him a go.
Eden Park is an absolute SHITHOLE of a stadium, well & truly hell on earth.
That's bullshit, Cooper is actually big on the team; he's nothing like you'd expect him to be, in person.
He was crap last night, but, as others have pointed out, our forwards got bullied by the ABs, and Cooper never got going as a result.
That is a concern in itself; most decent 10s will look good with time/space and a dominant forward pack - if we don't have that, then Cooper is a liability.
We need a 10 who can be creative and steady with a forward pack losing, Cooper might be best used off of the bench, when the packs are tired.
We've got solid options at 10; 9 is our biggest concern. Same as the above - if our scrum half is only potent when our forwards are dominating, it's a massive problem.
Pocock and Hooper are a no brainer, but I think everyone knows that. Hopefully those two fix a lot of those problems; better at the breakdown, quick recycling, better for the backs.
I say this obviously because we haven't beaten the hosts there for 29 years.Can you expand on this? I may go there next year.
Apart from being horrific in 90% of games in the last 12 months what has Genia done to deserve a spot? Phipps was bad, but he was still better than Genia, ditto White.
That's a team to play the USA and it assumes Cheika decides to take 3 halfbacks to the world cup. If he only takes 2 then he probably won't be there. But if it is 3 then he'll be in the squad and in that case I think it's important to give him some game time. You don't want to get to a quarter final and have to bring someone in who hasn't played at all for 2 months.
Surely Douglas is in the squad, otherwise why bring him back from overseas?
