All Blacks vs Wallabies Bledisloe II

If that’s the lineup then it’s fair.
Proctor has played enough games now and has just been kinda ‘there’. Nothing about his game screams potential world class centre. QT is an angry runner at least.
Leroy has been given a crack and due to the current winger shortage I can see how LF gets his chance. I’ve always liked a bit of thunder and lightning between 11 and 14.
Rieko perfect bench material until Leinster have reinvigorated his career. The ABs are in need of his character. Need more like him.
Blueben can rock up and let his nuts hang. Let him learn his trade.

Had to ask if I was having my leg pulled… hope I’m not so apologies in advance if it isn’t correct. Usual contact so have no reason to believe it isn’t correct. Maybe I’m just a little surprised due to a certain name on the wing(which should bring some interesting opinions).

Definitely interesting. Don’t think many would have picked that backline to start the year.

Not too outrageous for me - the obvious DMac inclusion, QT in for Proctor who has had enough chances - and Rieko is clearly a better option on the bench - so the only real surprise is LF. Which certainly feels like an odd selection, but TBH I didn't watch enbough super rugby to have a view on who should be wearing 11 ahead of him (unless they went Rieko 11 and Proctor on the bench)

On the whole I don't mind, except where's Clarke? (Don't really mine Leicester but like Clarke a lot.)
Other than that there's not too much controversial.

We know you have a history of entering from the side.

Clarke is potentially injured-ankle.
Analysis: All Blacks have found a keeper in Carter
Outstanding in his first two Tests, Leroy Carter appears to have the ability and mindset to be a long-term wing option, writes Patrick McKendry.

I can't find an official confirmation, but it would seem he has failed to recover from reinjuring his ankle

Definitely interesting. Don’t think many would have picked that backline to start the year.
Do you agree with Proctor being dropped?

He hasn't grabbed his opportunity by the scruff of the neck, regardless of how bad the backline has been in general. It's not the end for him yet, but I think a change was reasonable

Turns out it was McCaw who had/has the aura.
just makes me feel stupid I thought Fainga'nuku was a midfielder these days well obviously Razor has other ideas. Together we walk
