England v All Blacks

@Bovidae said in England Vs All Blacks:

Rieko is definitely on the outer.

He’ll play against Wales for sure.

ALB sucks as a bench option

Gets a bench spot

Make it make sense....

[Bovidae]

@KiwiMurph Says more about them not trusting LF or RI as 12 cover. They should have been bold and gone with a 6:2 split too.

@Bovidae Leinster must be wishing they’d signed Proctor instead.

[frugby]

Think this team is fairly telling. Sititi to the bench says they are wanting to match England for impact. ALB offers no punch, tend to agree on a 6-2 split, but given the injuries, not sure I'd have Kirifi.

[game_film]

Gonna need another FIIDIM myself performance from DMac to pull this one out.

I guess we will play the final quarter with 14 men again....

Rieko would be soooo much better than ALB. Fucken old timers day at Twickenham

6, 13 and 22 are a big let down

I dont understand that they trust Leicester at 13 but not at 12. I would like to see him more at 12 if anything.

@canefan The Barrett's have a history of YCs at Twickenham.

Dynamic wing or centre vs pedestrian centre…..make it make sense razor…..

A big opportunity for Parker. I’m glad they picked him to start. I much prefer Sititi in the role he has played off the bench.

Proctor I’m a little less sold on but he did a couple of good things when he came on last weekend.

ALB will be as fresh as fresh can be. If only TNT were fit.

[Donsteppa]

Proctor. Well, we're clearly not trying to win the game with pace.

Been a long while since I heard someone describe Rieko Ioane as dynamic

He's a better MF than ALB, but dynamic winger is definitely a stretch

Yeah agree very disappointing the team looks weaker with those 3 inclusions.
I hope Parker proves me wrong and plays a blinder to win we need him too or we could get dominated in the LFs.

[ACT Crusader]

I would’ve started Ioane on the left wing not because of any renewed dynamism, but because he’s solid and we have our first choice out. But the main reason is because I would’ve like to have seen QT and LF get another start together in the midfield. Whilst there were a few issues last week with both showing a desire to tuck it up the jumper rather than pass, both are actually capable of distributing and may have been better for the run.
