Italy v All Blacks
-
One good thing about this tour , the viewing times have been mostly pretty friendly.
-
Word is Stephen P at 10, Ruben Love and Fabian Holland both starting.
So not exactly the top team.

I know it's only Italy but we need Ruben Love to have a blinder. I think our best back three going forward is 11. Clarke 14. Jordan and 15. Love. Love just needs more opportunity to prove himself.

Just needs A chance to prove himself. Not just junk minutes against lower lights like Japan. This will be a more serious test, hopefully he can showcase what he's got

it's difficult to imagine a situation where the All Blacks have another specialist 7 in the 23
I....ahh....huh? Did you miss the games prior to the EOYT?
But yeah, who the heck is random saffa? Might as well just head down the pub and ask the first guy you see in a rugby jersey.

Interesting. We are hearing different things.
I haven’t been able to get the line up but told there won’t be anything too crazy happening. Hope that’s wrong, would love to see some change in the backs where possible.

Upvote for the Intel, a shame if they don't at least try one or two guys

Looks like they'll give TJ and Cane some time, farewell match and all that.

Ugh. Cane had his farewell, a win away against Ireland. Ratima and Roigard both have things to work on.

Also heard Cane starting, TJ not.

Should also caveat my info with the fact I've got no past experience with my source so take with a grain of salt...

Coming from you, I suppose it could be fishy…

It is wasteful to take valuable minutes away from players of the present and future who need them in favour of a farewell bow for a less able older player. TJP got his farewell in front of home fans earlier in the year. Cane as you say got to leave triumphant after Dublin. Move aside and play the young bucks who have shown they already belong. Razor will probably do exactly the opposite of what I'd like to see, which is to play Aumua, DMac, Cam and Ratima, and Lakai

Back to their preferred loose forward trio. Reece doesn't deserve to start.
Or be in the 23 for that matter.

I'd play Clarke, Love, and Jordan. But I don't expect Razor to do that either. Just a lack of imagination

He'll likely play Reece again.

yup. I rewatched the intercept try. Reece was disgracefully slow, something is wrong with him, or he's out of gas
