    However, the law emphasis changes we have seen this year would suit Hansen best.

    Those interpretations were limited to SR Aotearoa weren't they?

    You can't argue with his 100% winning record as head coach in test matches.

    For me the difference won't be in personnel it will be in a subtle change in emphasis on style.

    I agree. We need to be more direct but you have to have the forwards to play that style. The ABs don't get anywhere near as much from their locks as ball-carriers compared to Aust. Paddy T needs to lead from the front in this team. That's why I'd also have Frizzel and Sotutu in my team, and Roane at centre.

    The selection at TH prop is a little different. I don't think Laulala offers much as a bench prop so he either starts (my preference) or isn't in the 23.

    I think so, but if they have taken hold with the refs.....

    Fozzie just needs to pick Will Jordan and it's done.

    But, he might not! ๐Ÿ™‚

    True, he's finally been selected for a team that's not instantly hateable. ๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿพ

    The only coach of the Chiefs who I've supported in the Bledisloe is coaching the other team. Shit.

    Who's record? Foster had never lost a test as head coach, but he had also never won one, that's not 100% winning record

    This year is a write off, so he has the opportunity to try something new. Will be disappointed if the team is too safe.

    Players like Clarke and Sotutu should be starting, and Iโ€™d like to see a clear direction for six.

    New Coach in his first match? No chance on not being safe. Who would do that? That would be so arrogant and I would like that but surely SURELY he's not that silly.

    Have to pick the best players and those in form.

    Not necessarily, you have to select the best combinations for the team. Sometimes that is reverting to type. I think it will be safe as houses.

    Thatโ€™s what Iโ€™m predicting as well, I donโ€™t think he has it in him to take a selection risk.

    The kinds that gave us Wilson and Lomu at 19.

    Let's be frank - Lomu at 19 was terrible. Lomu at 20 on the other hand was out of this world.

    But would have Lomu at 20 have been that without Lomu at 19? I'm not so sure.

    Nothing wrong with his attacking skills at 19, he still trampled a few frogs.
