    lol at the thought of the average Eddie Jones team after he's been in charge for 5 years

      Maybe Christie is playing for his WC spot,Weber may still be in the picture.

        Foster confirms flanker Ethan Blackadder injured his calf a few weeks ago, just how long he is sidelined for isn’t clear.

          @ARHS The pack looks potentially better than the first test especially with Sam Cane back and Sam Whitelock starting, the addition of Tamati Williams is also a big boost.

            There is a lot of punch and mobility in that pack

              One pattern with the ABs is giving rookies a game off after their debut.

              Narawa (I know he also got injured), Williams, Roigard.

                  Love it! Foster showing some enterprise at last. Super interested in seeing how some of these players cope. Christie and Ennor are the only ones I would question.

                  I actually like the side as well.

                  There’s a decent engine room picked. Plenty of experience even with a debutante and a second test player.

                  It will be interesting how SS and WJ play at the back together.

                  WJ and LF worked well together during the super rugby season in those positions, so I’m pretty excited to see it art this level.

                  Ennor should fit into that, as well.

                  Just have to hope that T. Blue and T. Chiefs around them don't fuck things up too much.

                  At least there is some cavalry on the bench. Should've called in Drummie!

                      Pack looks pretty decent.

                      Sami T., Whitelock, Retallick, Cane and Savea all more or less first choice.

                      Williams should be OK vs their 3rd choice tighthead.

                      Backs will be interesting.

                      They evidently think they've seen enough of Roigard - one way or the other. His spot might be a bit dependent on Christie proving he's a decent option to start if Aaron goes down. Sentimental call for AS to be on the bench.

                      Ennor being given an opportunity to push out Havili? Or cotton wool for the starting midfield.

                      Wings have a chance to cause Fozzie a few selection headaches.

                      Jordan at fullback a glimpse of the future, but mainly next year, I think.

                                    christie is an obvious surprise...dont get giving guys one game off the bench and then gone, surely ease them in to bench and then start and then try someone else

                                    anyone else think ardie could have been given a rest? im the first one to say players should be given a few games in a row to settle etc...but he's got nothing to prove and there are still question marks over who covers him if he picks up a niggle

                                          @ARHS I think a North Vs South game or a Probables Vs Possibles would be more useful than this. Hard to see this as a genuine Test match.
