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.

Bad lift probably.

I would have Dmac and richie on the bench, id rather have someone a bit bigger, but thats splitting hairs

Agreed Jordan or even QT would have been better.

It wasn't a timing issue, the ball never made it to the target.

I don't remember that one so only guessing .

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

Only one selection in that team annoys me. Am I a Fozzie fan now?
Which one?
I thought that would be obvious - Reece.

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. -
just spotted something interesting on the TRC stats page.
If you look at the top 10 players for metres carried Bridge and Valetini are the only ones that aren't also in the top 10 for defenders beaten.
EDit: Will Jordan appears in neither top 10 but is second equal on tries scored. That's Josh Kronfeld levels of try 'poaching'

He isn't a large hooker by international standards, and the Canes scrum has often struggled. I accept that's not all down to Aumua (or Blackwell
). The Boks will bring on a better front row than their starters. I'm happy to be proved wrong.
