Australia v All Blacks - Bled I
-
@KiwiMurph would be massive for Aus rugby if they won tonight.

You got to love tuning into pre game coverage of the Bled and then have to listen to Te Nana, Wilson and Kirwan for an hour. Ffs. Surely Sky Sport can do better.
Mils is definitely the best on that team.
@Canes4life Nah, Wilson is the only one worth listening to. KT and JK are dumb and dumber.

@Bovidae I used to like Wilson but he’s become hard to listen to over the last couple years. So contradictory. I actually prefer Marshall these days.

In Auckland CBD pub, some big beer bellied guys in abs shirts are downing 750nl bottles of lion red. They won't remember the game

is 750-nil the predicted score?

I actually think Eddie will get more out of this than Foster and co: the ABs still don't know how they compare to France and Ireland (and possibly the new England) but Australia will be very interested to see where the weaknesses and potential is on such a new scratch old scratch hybrid team- for example, I haven't seen Will Skelton for ages, is he still the new fit and trim version?
-
I reckon Eddie thinks he's got a fighting chance if he has at least two league converts in the starting side.

Just want to go on record about how uncomfortable I am that I have no discomfort about this game.
Can't see a path to how we could lose this.
Which worries me deeply.
Fucking sneaky Aussies. Fucking sneaky Eddie Jones.
@booboo I reckon Carter Gordon could be a bit of a cult hero for this Aussie side moving forward. He’s obviously young but he looks quality and he has a bit of Larkham about him. The unknown factor could be Aussies strength tonight but it could also bite them in the arse. I feel Eddie’s flipping the coin and I don’t even think he knows how things will go.

I'm hoping the GOAT has been at the captain's run again

I’m on a plane on holiday during this one. Have a bit of a habit of the ABs losing whilst flying …

@booboo Interesting interview just now by Drew Mitchell with Eddie Jones, who seemed less lippy than normal and said something about how this game was a chance to spin the wheel and check out some younger players ahead of the World Cup.

Said something quite different in an interview with Goldie just now. He wants to put us under pressure for the first time this season, surmises that the ABs fast start this season is down to the players trying to back up Fozz with the backdrop of the Foster Robinson situation. Having fun trolling a little bit

At least we know who to blame
