    I think it's strange to put Goodhue at 13 when ALB has been so good at 13 vs Wallabies at Eden Park and vs Boks opening game.

    @KiwiMurph I guess they arent giving that EP test as much weighting as fans are, that said, I guess if it is the case, the ALB/Goodhue duo is one they have been looking to get going but havent been able to and was cut short in Perth...although may have been a blessing given how poorly our pack went.

    But I guess if our pack turns up, the backs whichever are picked, will do the job.

      I'd play Goodhue every time over SBW alongside ALB. Without crotty there he is the defensive organiser. Constantly moving guys around to even up numbers and avoid mismatches.
      Much better distribution too.

        I am hoping we have gone up a level since Bled 2.
        That we are actually a better team with the changes we have implemented and that other teams haven't realized it yet.

        That our dual playmaker system, dynamite Ardie at 6, in-form ALB, our reserve locks improving and two superb and in form wings will push us over the top.

          Surely it will be Crotty and ALB?

          Personally for a massive game like this, I think Goodhue is too inexperienced. Crotty/SBW (I don't carte which with ALB outside them. Actually, I do care which, Crotty to start for me to help organise ourselves

            I think we underestimate how good the performance in the opener vs SA was. Not a perfect one, but they were well up for it and thought themselves a big chance, our defence held fast and we tore them apart for 15 minutes before half time, we were able to pull away from them in the final 15 minutes. Take away that jammy intercept score from an offside position and the margin looks even better

                  Kick off 11.15 pm according to google (I thought it was 11.45pm). Is the team named today?

                  7.15 (11.15 NZ time) according to the WR page. Foxtel has it at 9.15pm here.

                          so my source was accurate again, I still dont know who it is, as i get it through a mate, but if we do beat Ireland will promise to post it early again next time, if I get the call again

                            The leaked team was 100% correct then.

                            Press conference is at 4 pm so it will be interesting to hear the thoughts of Hansen.

                              So Dane Coles as impact.
                              Retallick maybe subbed at 50 minutes.

                                Can’t believe Ben Smith not there.

                                Hansen really has balls, he just backs youth and go for it.

                                No complaints otherwise but I still dont know what I think our best midfield is.

                                  He's named a few of the teams so far accurately so have some trust

                                    No Ben Smith and no Crotty. Reminds me of no Doug Howlett in 07.....

                                      I think this is the best use of Taylor and Coles now. Coles provides the better impact.

                                        Experience, experience, experience.... then somehow we end up with four guys in the backline who had ~10 starts collectively in 2018 in Goodhue, ALB, Bridge and Reece.

                                        So much for forward planning.
