          I hope Love plays and touches down. So I can tell my Italian friends "hey, that's Amore!"

            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

            Clearly fatigued - the only thing that makes sense is to go back to a specialist winger - maybe even two of them - on the bench.

            Someone like Lam can cover wing and MF, as could Proctor I reckon. If Richard Kahui could win a RWC medal doing it, surely almost all of the MF players with a little gas could fill in at wing. Could have moved Rieko out there and brought another MF on. Rassie would bloody do it

                  I see it as a chance to run three locks. Word is that Vaa'i might get run at 6. If Cane back then RD or Wally for 8.

                      No. He didn't travel with AB XV due to injury in NPC final.

                          @mikey07 Assume Finau is out, he looked bad after that collision. He seemed to slip as he went to tackle, and at the point of collision the back of his head was facing forward, and was the contact point.

                                dude, they are your words in your post. i am simply asking you to clarify what you mean. Sam Cane is the best openside in the country right now, and caps are not "wasted" on him. And for all they hype, he is not less able than Lakai, he is far more able.

                                Now, if you are talking about TJP, who is very lucky to be considered in the top 3 halfbacks in teh country, let alone the top 2, then it is a different conversation. However your post doesn't make that distinction.

                                (you're not the only one to have a pop at Cane either, but yours was the final straw)

                                    @brodean The stat I find disturbing is the very high % of 0-3s rucks for Ireland.

                                      I got oil on the loosie trio vs Italy Savea, Cane, Sititi and Lakai off the bench not that I agree with it

                                      @mikey07 if accurate I wonder why Robertson didn't allow Lio-Willie to play some actual Rugby for the XV

                                        is that 8 7 6 or 6 7 8?

                                        @nostrildamus that’s all I could get out of my source I’m guessing Sititi 6 Cane 7 and Savea 8 which to me seems silly I’d put Savea at 6 and leave Sititi at 8.

                                          100% totally agree I think that’s been the problem on this tour too many of the guys brought into the ABs squad to hold tackle bags instead of playing.
