Foster saying he still sees Jordie at fullback. Tupaea to start at 12?
-
From this armchair, they got the backs right. Forwards have some surprises.

Only one specialist blindside in Akira Ioane? Think they’re going to miss Blackadder’s versatility.
Nah, plenty of blindside options with Papali’i or Vaa’i or Barrett

And the backs:

PGS has played at 6 too. I still have doubts about his ball-handling off the back of the scrum.
I have doubts about his ability to flop over the fucking try line.

Is this the most average looking All Blacks team for a while? I feel like there are so many ??, not a good thing 1 year out from a World Cup.

No different to the last 2 years.

At least there's no Bridge.

Unavailable for selection due to injury - Joe Moody, Anton Lienert-Brown, Ethan Blackadder.
Unavailable for selection due to New Zealand Rugby return to play criteria - Patrick Tuipulotu, Damian McKenzie.
You’d have to say the first three would’ve made it - Moody over Karl T, ALB over LF, Blackadder over PGS.
But would PT and DMac have been certainties?
PT over Lord possibly. DMac over Perofeta?

Hang on. This is only a couple of selections away from what we all expected or would have selected. Jumping on the negative pretty quickly aren't you?
