France v All Blacks

[kiwiinmelb]

I think that is the worst AB jumper of all time ,

I actually didnt think the Grey jumper was that bad until after the game , before I was ok with it ,

Am i allowed to admit I actually brought one ? ( months before the WC when they were first released )

Dont think i ever wore it again .

It's Thursday ...

[taniwharugby]

@booboo not in France....

[Crash]

...or England

[ACT Crusader]

Moody, Taylor, Franks, Romano, Whitelock, S. Barrett, Todd....

I give up!

[Bovidae]

5 pm NZT for those wondering.

[antipodean]

Here's your forward pack:

[ACT Crusader]

Who's that at the back ready to lift Squire?

[taniwharugby]

@ACT-Crusader Todd? Or is that him on the left?

[antipodean]

Moody?

I reckon Todd is behind Kaino.

[ACT Crusader]

Franks, Kaino, Todd, Read, Retallick, Whitelock, Moody

Faumuina, Dixon, Savea, S. Barrett, Luatua, Squire, ???

[taniwharugby]

Coltman? Looks more like a back though doesn't it...or again, is that Coltman in the background or is that Crotty?

Rubbish photographer

[Bovidae]

Yeah, Todd is behind Kaino. Coltman is back right so it must be a back next to Squire.

So a predictable forward pack. The interest will be in the outside backs.

It's Crockett!

What self respecting forward would let a back near a lineout! Their brains would explode.

[Bovidae]

@Frye Of course! I was trying to work out who was missing and I always forget about Crockett.

[Frye]

@Bovidae Ofa left out altogether. Shocker.

[antipodean]

Surely Crockett is taller than that?

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean yeah that was why I thought it might be a back, but he does look bent slightly.

Surprised @ACT-Crusader didn't get that straight off the bat given he is looking for Cantabs to start where ever he can

Even though ABs fans seem to hate the new alternate strip, a group of guys at rugby shirt watch seem to be giving the designer(s) a good reacharound.
