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

    Which one?

    I thought that would be obvious - Reece.

    Nah I didn't pick up on that. Thought it may have been BB at first 5

    I’m not really in either of the BB or Mo camps so wouldn’t mind which of the two were selected.

      @crucial Close to the squad I hoped for, knowing that some selections (Ardie starting, for example) are a given.

      Weber starting instead of TJP
      Mo'unga back in the 23
      Rioane to 11
      DH and ALB midfield
      Blackadder retained in 23

      Only surprise is maybe Jordan being dropped, but Reece is a good replacement. I would have picked Jordan instead of Dmac in the 23, now that RM is back.

      Which is what makes me think a tactical change (or the the other 2 didn't follow the plan)
      Jordan doesn't counter attack. He waits for others to doit then follows up. Bridge tries but as he is unable to beat a man is ineffective.
      That bok chase line comes up fast and committed. Break through from a kick and it will be all on.

          Hopefully Taylor sorts out his throwing, that had a huge impact on what we could do last week. We were forced to keep throwing at 2

          That was the boks doing more than Taylors throwing IMO.

              Yep for sure same happened to the Wallabies v Boks, they had to revert to using 2 in their line outs.

                Well I remember one going to the back with Akira being lifted where it hit him in the stomach. How did the boks force that?

                Whenever it went long it was off target.

                    I hope that the ABs look to setup their lineouts and throw-in quickly. This will be one way of upping the tempo.

                        Agreed Jordan or even QT would have been better.

                                Good team. I'll be very disappointed if they don't smack 7 shades of shit out of this lot.

                                    It's going to be a big challenge for the reserve front row. Aumua is not as strong a scrummager as Taukei'aho. The jury is still out on Bower and Tuungafasi looks underdone and has had his own problems in the scrum previously.

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

                                      Which one?

                                      I’m annoyed too. Bridge deserves heaps more chances to play himself into form.

                                        It's going to be a big challenge for the reserve front row. Aumua is not as strong a scrummager as Taukei'aho. The jury is still out on Bower and Tuungafasi looks underdone and has had his own problems in the scrum previously.

                                        According to who ? I thought it was just his throwing that wasn’t as good.

                                          Yeah, I thought Aumua was a strong scrummager.
                                          Reece or Jordan.... both are quality with different strengths. Reece gets his shot this week.
