For half an hour on a dull Thursday night, the All Blacks' social media had us all wondering what on earth Sir John Kirwan was thinking.
In a promotion for fans to pick their own All Blacks starting XV for the first test against France, the All Blacks had Kirwan share his selections for the starting lineup.
A reasonable idea to foster debate, and so Kirwan's team was shared on Twitter -where fans reacted incredulously.
In what seemed like the most baffling selections by a former great athlete since Wynton Rufer suggested playing Rory Fallon on the wing and Andrew Durante at right back for the All Whites against Peru, Kirwan's picks had several out-of-the-box ideas.
