TRC: Pumas v All Blacks
-
That’s a good point - I was wondering whether that lay behind the Blues running Ioane out at 14 in a game. That would be huge if they moved him to play Bridge.
I’m sure I read somewhere that Bridge is part of their plans, so I expect him to get more time than Reece - which means Reece to start and Bridge left right out I guess
-
@gt12 Could see Bridge or Jordie at fullback with BFA on the right wing.
I wouldn't be surprised if Jordie is in the no.14 jersey either.

George Bridge appears both quicker and better under the high ball than him@Frank Jordie’s last start for the ABs was on the right wing and he didn’t go too bad there.
Albeit that was against Italy, but then again the Argies are another tier 2 nation....

Yealden reckons Ennor & Ioane are likely to come off the bench, with Jacobson competing with Papali'i for a bench spot too, with no run on debutants.

on paper, if it clicks, that side could be devastating....

A big "no thanks" to Barrett on the wing.
I like it. He is playing a Kahui role with the ole two fullbacks thing.
I like the team.

erm what?
I'm not saying Kahui was a FB, just saying when he was on the wing he would also play a fullback role (didn't he?)

@Tim esp left wing...suppose easier to let the vastly experience JB play out of position on the left wing than the rookie Reece.

Except Reece was a left winger for Waikato. I don't think he played on the right before the Crusaders.

was tongue in cheek given Jordie has played F-all as well ( less than10 tests?)
