@bovidae Didn't Bird also have some bad injuries along the way?
I think he did have a few injuries but was also given plenty of opportunities for the Chiefs. He did play very well in the game against Wales.

“They were giving me the name tag of ‘The Food Bill’ there for a wee while, because I didn’t play, and was just collecting all the kit.
Wasnt Ranby the one that phrase was coined for?
Jeez what a tough run, great he still has that desire though!!

@taniwharugby I honestly can't remember who that phrase started with. There has been a long list over the years.

It was at least Robin Brooke before that when he was injured 1994/1995ish.

@nepia at that point he wouldnt have been a 'foodbill' though was he, not being 'officially' paid and all.

Well obviously I didn't read any of the posts above so have no context for the discussion.
I think it was a tour to the NH when he maybe played half a game but stayed on tour (could be 100% wrong on that I just remember Zinny calling him that).

ALB likely to have to be rested against the Tahs.

He's had a heavy workload, but the thought of running out a backline with no DMac or ALB in Sydney doesn't sound like much fun...

we can't make the final. we can't come last. we're playing our 4th game in Australia. Who actually cares? get some experience in to the kids.

Be nice to keep the Waratahs losing streak going though.

I think/hope we can get away with Tupaea and Nankivell.
I think Sullivan is also officially a midfielder if we want to go crazy ( @Bovidae is that right)
The biggest thing is getting the bench right - we dont want Tupaea finishing the game on the wing.
Up front, I really hope they sent over Moli, Ah Kuoi and Finau or none of it will matter...
