Doesn't seem like something new, definitely seen it done before. Sotutu was lightening quick though.

Quick enough to play 12 you reckon?

Seldom. The pleasing thing is it shows ABs had excellent tactical awareness. Sotutu’s work at scrum time marks him as a thoroughbred 8.

He's going to have a tough time getting past Jordie and Clarke and whatever other shiny new wing people decide is suited to the midfield.

As long as Ardie is happy to transition to 13.

Pretty certain. It's stock standard stuff. Zinny is a good example.

yes

I also thought they banned it a few years back. But that must have gone by the wayside

[Bovidae]

There was an example of this in a game earlier in the year. The point was made that the no.8 needs to move before the ball has been fed into the scrum for it to be legal.

[Tim]

@Bovidae Thanks for clarifying!

Man ANZ is a terrible stadium for fans.

The food is a fucking disgrace. Every single outlet sells the same shit - pies, chips, and hotdogs. You couldn't even get a pizza if you wanted, let alone some noodles or sushi or a decent burger. Imagine all the Asian cafe/restaurant owners who would love a crack at setting up in one of the kitchen to roll out awesome noodle/rice dishes at HT, could all be pre-prepared, pre-ordered, pre-paid for easy collection at HT.

At HT I queued up at one of the coffee bars for 15mins to get the kids a hot chocolate, only to be told they don't do hot chocolates. Only positive there was that I missed the Wallaby try, and if I didn't see it it didn't happen...

I see the attendance was only 26k, thats pretty disappointing even given the weather.

Not much different from grounds in NZ, where the peak culinary offering is probably a Fritz's weiner

I had delicious Vietnamese a couple of years ago at Bay Oval, although it was the summer.

Knee-trembler?

It was good, but not THAT good!
