All Pinks vs Boks - Christchurch
-
Can't see much changing. Main intrigue Todd or Ardie to start. Perhaps Crockett to start? On bench imagine Romano will remain, albeit Squire or Pat T both good options. Slight chnace Squire could be back up for Ardie. Would like to see Sopoaga get a run, but not likely given Shag's Cruden rap at start of week.
Sould know in 30...

Parsons doesn't have 6 caps!
That list is from http://www.allblacks.com/News/29782/all-blacks-team-named-for-test-against-south-africa

This is all very easily answered by common sense.
Why would Parsons be on the bench if Taylor is available?
Ergo Taylor is on the bench.

And unfortunately it's not even for a controversial reason like he was "dropped". Cruden has a groin strain....
It's a very strong line up. The calls to Switch Moody and Crockett, it seems they like Crockett's Impact off the bench better in the final 30.
Good to see Taylor get another run off the bench as he was effective last week.
Let's hope we see that Romero fella again as he wasn't half bad when he came on last weekend.
Well done to Ardie on his first start. Looking forward to see how he goes when the game is at its most physical. It will be interesting to see how long he plays given the earlier comments about him.
I wonder if TKB will feature? Sort of seems to be in the Patty T category.
The Barrett starting at 10 experiment seems to be going okay so let's keep it going
Glad to see the same midfield selected. Improved performance as a combination last week I thought, but plenty to work on. Like ALB on the bench, but I suspect they will be looking at Moala once he's fully fit and ready.
Dagg a winger??? Nah never work....
