Actually think he may be ok.

I worry Robertson will react to last weekend’s record loss by playing it ultra conservative with the likes of Reece and Lienert-Brown.

Is Havili fit?

…….and is it too late to send an SOS to George Bridge for some good old fashioned SWB slow and steadiness on the wing?

@Dan54 said in All Blacks vs Wallabies Bledisloe I:
over my disappointment of what happened in Wellington, and so now looking forward to this one.
Over it? Hell naw.
I'm still bitter about the Cornelsen game in 1978., and every loss thereafter. (Earliest loss I can recall watching ... probably earlier ones I watched - 1976 in SA for eg). So will never be "over" Saturday.
But definitely looking forward to the next one.

Hey boo, listen mate, I thought I ha buried the '78 game from my memory, geez now you reminded me !!
But after turning 71 last week I decided I have to get over things quickly, as I haven't got all that many years , and I need to throw out disappointment as quick as I can, otherwise I will be a cranky old man as well as dumb old bugger!!:beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes: -

Changes I would make for the Wallabies test:
- Name the team on Wednesday. Controversial, I know, but scrap the Thursday palaver. Give the media and fans more time to review, critique and talk about the game.
- Start the Crusader front row - Williams, Taylor, Newell. Shocking aye.
- Get Holland in to start at lock. If you are intent on starting Scooter and Vaa’i, move Vaa’i to 6 and Parker to 8 or the bench.
- Bring in Luke Jacobson. Whether for Sititi or Kirifi, we need more size.
- Give Love a start at 10. The time is now, it’s a big game and time for him to feel the blowtorch as a starter in the 10 jersey. And if you don’t genuinely see him as a 10 then bring in Reihana. No more DMac or Beauden at 10. Zero, zilch, nada more opportunities at 10. It’s killing us. And only select one of them in the 23.
- Go back to Jordan at fullback and bring Clarke into the starting XV. Put Ioane on the other wing.
- Give the Jordie/Quinn combo a start. There’s a skill set between the two of them that we need. Proctor can be on the bench or watching from the stands.
- Pick whatever halfbacks are fit….
- Use the midfield pod more, it actually created space in the Welly test, but select the 1st 5 that will use it.
- No box kicks in our own 22.

Not confident about Tupaea's defence when playing centre. Seems a lot more comfortable at 12.

There might be some hold ya breath moments, but he trains at both so I’d give it a go. That’s where I’m at. I’m willing to see just about anything tried.
I’m not sold on the Ioane at centre and Clarke on the left wing. Saw too many bad reads in combination. But would have both on the wings.

I'm still disappointed with the nature of the loss. Losing in a tight tussle and going down to the wire I can live with, but the way we folded was disgusting. Never want to see that happen ever again. Anyhoo, gotta rinse it off and move on...unless the Wallabies thrash us and then I'll be joining the baying mob calling for the coaches and key players heads to roll. When does Schmidt come off contract?

Ioane isn't playing great at wing and I'd have thought he is more of a 11 than 14.

@nostrildamus he’s played both.
Jordan needs to keep playing fullback to continue that progress.

It's a headspace/leadership thing that's the problem. There's panic and there's giving up. The Caketin was the latter.
Same team, I suspect but with Roigard or Ratima
Forget Schmidt. He's made it as clear as he can that he's not interested while Robertson & NZR Board are in place
