I think Jacobson, QT, SB slightly unlucky but can't deny Blackadders workrate and commitment. They must see TV as a more impactful lock replacement going forward. I think TJP must be the luckiest selection after his efforts last week. One bonus is to have such competition in the team.
Scott Barrett returned home after the final match against the Springboks.

part of our issue up front is that this year SB is our best performing lock. Problem is, SB has a low ceiling. If our pack is ever going to go anywhere we need to find guys capable of better.

Man he’s provided some highlights over his AB career. Is he a 10, is he a 15, who cares really, I’ve just enjoyed watching him out on the park
a fantastic rugby player. Pace, good vision for a half opportunity, and a willingness to chance his arm.
His highlight reel would be pretty fucking sweet.
100 for the ABs is really quite something considering how hard we have been on selection.

All those God-like moments are from when Beauden was a Hurricane.

Looks to me like this team was picked a fortnight ago except for Lomax over Ofa. Presume that is an injury. Happy with them creating the competition for places and building depth. Could be a closer match than I had expected with top 15.

What changes for the top XV, and for that matter XXIII?

I don't have many issues with that team, would prefer Reece wasn't there, but glad he's only on the bench.
It will be interesting to see if Akira can operate as an impact player coming on, because I don't think he's done it very often.

Based on playing or off-field criteria?

Y'all waking up early for this? Or recording and watching later.
I shall probably sleep in, have a late breakfast and then pop down the pub before watching the game at leisure.

@stargazer hah I'll be getting up. Sleeping patterns already fucked coz I can't go to work due to lockdown. May as well make it worse.

I can't remember the last time I watched a game at the pub!

Given my son turns 13 tomorrow and has a bunch of his mates over I doubt I'll get to watch before Monday

If it isn't raining, I'll go for a walk in the morning. Then Mrs Meldrew and me are off for lunch in St Mawgan, then home, let a bottle of decent plonk breathe for an hour or two, then settle down for the game.
Bugger this waking up early shit.
