I’m trying to remember the last test we went into with our starting loose trio all with less than 10 tests.
Big test on Retallick to get this relatively inexperienced pack going if things get hairy.
@act-crusader which means around 30 to 40 when WC comes around. I like it.

Hearing there’s a 50/50 chance Queensland will be in lockdown tomorrow., got a contact in the COVID response team across the ditch ..see what happens .

Recent lockdown was restricted to specific LGAs. We were outside the lockdown area in Fraser Coast.
At this stage the cases seem to be South West of BNE so hopefully it doesn't drag in GC.
Maybe they can all escape to Townsville if they lock down Bne.

@steven-harris Looks like the ABs game could be in doubt if your info is correct. I Foster breathes a huge sigh of relief as he manages to not worsen his 50% win/loss record against the Argies if no play happens.

Or you could argue he misses the opportunity to as to his 79% record.
Oh yeah and he's fat.

Just on that. Was in BNE last weekend. Was a reshuffled alternative to being in Sydders for Me Boo Jr's 18th. (Intent was to send her off to Hamilton! the musical with her best buddy ... she got to go to a cat cafe and Free Guy at Gold Class cinema instead.)
No mask mandate outside but I'd say 90% of people wore them everywhere.
Probably a post for the Covid forum but somehow seems relevant here.

ALB out, Rieko at 13.
Seems like whenever we get a decent midfield combination going, one of them gets injured.
Jinxed since Ma'a & Conrad.

Tups or Ennor on to the bench?
-
it has to be Ennor, just worried his powder is so dry the bench will erupt into hellfire..

National sports journalism at its finest . . . I think I could do this job
Head coach Ian Foster has made six changes to his lineup for Sunday's match, from the one which beat Australia last weekend. But those changes don't notably weaken the All Blacks — Foster has been able to replace wingers Rieko Ioane and Will Jordan with Sevu Reece and George Bridge, without losing any pace or power in the back three.without losing any pace or power. . .

@machpants Yes, I’m curious too. Haven’t found any other mention of ALB being out.

Announcing no new cases as I type, so the game should be good to go.

@higgins
Just got this update from my contact
Yes all clear for now as 8 cases in same or related households. However, pending 600 or so key contacts test results will determine if they go in for a snap lockdown. So in reality, every chance lockdown looks within next 72 hrs
Looks good to go. -
