All Blacks vs Springboks II

[Tim]

@hooroo Especially when Grant Fox said, on Monday, that they know the team on Tuesday!

[Unite]

With stadium capacity now reduced to 75% in QLD due to restrictions announced today there might be a few people who cannot attend this.

Thank fuck -it looks like they're selecting based on form. Samisoni must be injured.

[Nepia]

Only one selection in that team annoys me. Am I a Fozzie fan now?

[Bovidae]

That's the starting forward pack I thought would be selected. No real wing cover on the bench so DMac would move there again.

[mariner4life]

never, ever thought i would see the day where Brad Weber was selected to start for the ABs in a tier 1 test and people would be stoked.

Old Mate Starry will tell me, but i assume Jordan is still hurt?

Which one?

[Crucial]

Rotation at hooker but not at reserve lock. Loosies as predicted.
Going with the best midfield and hoping that fixes things there.
Looks like a change in tactics and a back three that is going to try and run the kicks back.
