Scotland v All Blacks
-
Sometimes it feels like a catch 22 ,
We complain our bench lacks impact , then we get some guys who do provide impact , then we want them to start and go back to a bench with less impact .
-
I think this is an exciting time following the All Blacks. Plenty of young players coming through showing promise.
We have had plenty of stale conservative selections over the last 5 years but things are changing.
Also like a good story. QT's good form after that dreadful injury and long recovery warms the heart.
Heading to Scotland in 36 hours should be good. -

Why does ALB deserve a run in the 22 jersey exactly ?
He doesnt. He has been poor as a bench player for a long while now.

I would not be averse to Reiko at 13 , but I thik like it r not ALB will be in mix to cover 12.
Come on man, it took more effort to type that incorrectly than to type it correctly.
Lol see what happens even worse when I piss around on phone. The only win is it seems to of got your school teacher vibe going.

The guy that did the team is a Chiefs supporter.

Seriously, who else can provide 2nd 5 cover? At least until Havili joins the squad.

Fai'anganuku.

Maybe not against the big guns but they're only playing Scotland this week luckily.

Beauden's crash ball running had a positive influence on the result of the game last week, he gets my nomination.
