    So definitely not the strongest 25, with other new players added.

    @Bovidae Yeah, quite a few players missing from that line-up. I sure hope Harry Godfrey isn't injured! He's a certain starter, hopefully at 10, but possibly at 15. It will be interesting to see whether Hotham plays in the second match, too. He's also a certain starter (if there), possibly with Viljoen as his back-up.

      @Stargazer I think it's more of a case of giving everyone a run and keeping our best team for Saturday.

      No Siale Lauaki aswell who probably starts at 3.

        I do find it strange that Riley Williams comes into the squad and starts ahead of Nic Shearer, who was one of the halfbacks originally named. It does suggest they've now cast their net wider.

          By the way, it's pissing down in Wellington right now. Hopefully, it will be better at kick-off time, but the ground will be soft.

            @Stargazer it’s meant to be torrential rain this afternoon. 😬

                  I see that there is a small crowd there.

                    It's always so weird to watch a game without sound.

                          So there's already one player leaving the field with an injury. Looks like a frontrower.

                              The NZ scrum has been under pressure so far.

                                  Hard to know if the scrum issues are due to the props not being up to it, or are due to a loosie being picked at lock. Either way, I hope we don't see anything like this at the JRWC - the last scrum went back quickly

                                    @bobily2 I was thinking the same thing. IMO our three best locks aren't playing.

                                      That was their no. 10 Jack Bowen
