      Does that have the implied level of sarcasm I hope it does?

        So much for reputation!

        Will need to know the context of the changes as maybe the likes of Laulala, Reece and Bridge are getting their opportunity.

        With the Bledisloe on the line I hope/expect its much more than rotation/chancing their arm...

          So they've named 2 x 12s on the bench......

            @Donsteppa Yeah, I would be happy if they have been dropped on form as it would indicate some accountability about performance. Although Ioane is the unluckiest of the three.

              Well I like it. Wasn't all that keen on the Reece selection originally, but our back 3 hasn't exactly been setting the world on fire, so be good to see how he gets on - Bridge also needs to show a lot more than he has so far.

              Good stuff in the front row, Moody really needs to show himself this match though.

              Liking Hemopo replacing Fajita.

                Surprised that with Goodhue, Barrett, Franks out of the starting lineup they’ve only bought in two Crusaders, Reece and Bridge. Doesn’t add up.

                I blame Fox.

                    Quick line outs on a wet Auckland deck are our new recipe for victory.

                          That side really stumps me. Are they going all out to win this or just testing combinations? Usually the away Jappie game gets the Possibles not the deciding Bled game.

                                @akan004 Yeah I don’t understand that if Reece is on the wing as some X factor why Jordie makes no sense FB cover fuck knows
                                Looks like a bet either way

                                    2 things stand out they are determined to stick with the BB and RM starting combo
                                    And the twin open sides in Ardie and Sam
                                    Points to trying to play the game at extreme pace with Todd on the bench again 3 open sides in the 23.

                                        I don't think Shag would panic even if his house was on fire and there were sandbags blocking all exits. I also don't think selecting Jordie on the bench is a sign of panic.

                                          I think it points to the fact that they only see Ennor as a winger at this stage, and Laumape is also on the bench.

                                          The big loser is Fifita but very glad Hemopo is on the bench. I hope he makes the most of his chance.
