We should really fuck him up and name our team on Saturday morning.
Bracket every position

LOL Fuck off.
Lakai has literally no body of work deserving of an All Blacks jersey. At least Finau has been busy doing the hard work in his limited opportunities. His cleans are excellent and his carries in close make ground. He's worth persisting with IMO.
Are we watching the same player? Finau has been fucking useless and has complete shit for brains.

@Tim said in All Blacks vs Springboks II:
Finau's best efforts were against France B, which should be discarded.
Parker seems more consistent.
SA still controlled a lot of possession and territory, and our defence faded in the last 20 minutes.
Don't get too excited yet.
Sititi will be better for playing. Same for Lomax and Williams. Losing Taylor earlier than planned won’t have helped the plan to counter the Bok late surge. Likewise losing Narawa.
I would expect ABs to be better conditioned towards the end of the next test. Also helps if play is down the Bok end

@stodders I have a couple of South African friends where I live. We all seem to be talking our chances down.
Boks are 4-time World Cup winners and reigning champions. Can’t hide from being favourites. Got to wear it

Aside from Higgins (only a matter of time),
Riley Higgins is not contained by time, time answers to Riley Higgins.

Probably should be 6 time winners.

Rieko may get a reprieve with perhaps not too many changes to the back 3 wanted and at least 1 (and possibly 2) changes already occurring
I'd look a Roane to 14, Clarke in to 11

No Eben, no DDA?!
Could have done with him coaching us for a year or so to light fires under some arses.
Rightly or wrongly he doesnt reward bad performances.
Unlike the Allblacks.
Because Etzebeth played so poorly.

Parker was only on for 8 or those minutes.

It’s just whenever I mention a Hurricane some on here get a little pissy.
So, most of the time then!

Confused...didn't Lakai play nearly the whole of the last test vs France Nov 23?
Also played well. Has one try vs Japan ..though could argue they are minnowsGot a try against the French too.

Rassie is either prescient or full of shit
Based on one average Etzebeth match I’d wager the latter

maybe he thinks we got the rub,
Like home sides do generally. When read in sequence it was remarkable exercise in cherry picking decisions (which is why I remarked).
Dickson didn't seem to be as pedantic as usual, and it ended up at 10 penalties each (I think) so read into that what you will.
