Think they'll pick the same team as Boer II as much as possible and try to build on that win. Less mistakes, bit better positioning out wide, that sort of thing. If things are going well, the likes of Paps, Sotutu, Vai'i and QT given more game time than usual - think it's a bit early to have RTS on the bench for Pumas 1 but expect some serious game time in the next match.
The Pumas won't be a pushover so a decent win would be show some consistency and wouldn't that be a good thing?
Fewer.
Just saying.
But not all mistakes all countable, e.g. players not positioning well. Fewer knock-ons and penalties is correct as it's definitive/countable. Less mistakes is equally correct as it includes non-countable stuff.
Hope that's clear.... :fishing_pole:

You wonder if he'd have been picked at 10? Foster changes his mind like a battleship turns, once you're in you're in, but if you're just getting going chopping and changing is his way. It's bizarre

i reckon this place would have kicked right off

@Tim Knock as in head knock? He's already had lots of concussion problems the last few years. Quite a worry.
@Stargazer No further details, unfortunately.

Foster might still get a hostile crowd reception but selecting Mo'unga in a Chch test will certainly help his cause. I don't expect any changes to the starting XV.

I know a backline that would endear him to the Chch crowd….

@ACT-Crusader Would they even notice with the eye patch on?

Would love to see how Perofeta goes at 10 after Mounga has played the first 60 or so(assuming we can afford to bring him on)

Taranaki didn't bother starting him at 10 on the weekend. That would have been an ideal time to give him a run there.

It’s a tad concerning that his noggin is copping quite a few knocks lately.

Has it been confirmed that his noggin took the knock?

@ACT-Crusader Not as far as I have seen.

Think he'll be on the bench if BB is ruled out but Ritche may well play the full 80 depending on how the game pans out.

Just throwing it out there, but could we see the same starting backline as SA 2, but on the bench have a midfielder (QT or RTS) plus a winger (eg Reece).
Plan to play Mo’unga for 80 and better utilise the options on the bench. If he gets crook we run with either Jordie or Havili at 10.

@Victor-Meldrew There's also the option to bring Perofeta on at 15.
