ngani laumapeToo many changes I think. I get the opportunity to give some guys a break before the rest of the year but if BB is going to rest we need BFA at 15 to keep an experienced read on things.
Also think that if/when RM is going to start, they will pair him with Crotty. -

If Mo'unga starts I suspect Crotty will be there to support him, which opens door to TJP start. But I was working from wanting to give Crotty rest, in which case ALB needs to be at twelve (at least for first half) and Nugget at 9.
As I was typing it did strike me that back three quite raw. I think they want NMS to get a start, so including BFA, which I agree is logical/likely, means resting Barrett (J) or Naholo. On balance I'd give Jordie another run, given he is on a learning curve.

I can’t see them starting a test match with Richie at 10 and Jordie at 15. Not this early in their careers. Given the importance of our 10 and 15 in counter attack, playmaking etc, they need at least one of our experienced heads to be there.

Exactly.
The spine runs from 2 to 8, 9, 10 and 15. A rookie 10 should be supported with experience at 12 and 15.

That's another bogan ball term that's crept into rugby

@wreck-diver In the day people used to joke that there was a shiver running up and down Bill Rowlings's back looking for a spine.

Again, broadly agree. That said, BFA at 14 would allow quite a lot of input. If more required Waiseke gets a day off.
P.S. I'd be surprised in Crotty doesn't get a start in the land of his father.

I wouldn’t be changing Naholo. He’s in the same camp as Squire for me and starts every test match in this RC. Since first making the ABs he’s been more broken than available, so as long as he’s fit he needs game time. Plus we need his pace against the quick Argie backs.
On Crotty, Hansen doesn’t really do sentimentality.
-
Cane and Crotty both down on game time, and a steady 12 outside Mo'unga?

@wreck-diver interesting how he says "and I felt...we felt as a coaching group..."
Tbh I think if he has the right people around him I can't see any issues, maybe Razor to come in under him as the heir apparent?

@wreck-diver don't think he wanted to be an assistant.
