RWC SF: All Blacks v Argentina
-
Good to see they are persisting with Williams and Newell on the bench. They bring more grunt in the loose than Ofa T and Laulala. They also won a scrum penalty while they were only seven against eight Irishmen which tells a lot about their scrummaging ability.

@sparky that's a no thanks for me...one of the 2 games I went to Twickers for, both were losses, self imposed ban, easy to enforce from NZ haha

Like the look of the team, perhaps I would of thought Roigard against Argies, but can understand why they have gone for Christie (well more or less), also Sami, I actually think is good pick as he may get more time than they want to give Colsey before final, I guessing if score is ok (and I saying only if) they may make a couple of eraly changes.
Anyway C'mon ABs , you can do this!!! -
The naming of the team can't come soon enough so we can talk about THIS TEST.
The Mains years weren't exactly peak ABs either as there were plenty of ups and downs. Imagine losing to a scratch World XV.
-
Tough to drop Christie when he did nothing wrong last week...horses for courses...so if we make final.anf if SA do also, based on previous 'courses' Roigard will play the final!
Changes as expected, good ST back, need him to get some 2022 form back in him.
Let's win this and with no injuries!

Blame him for last week's earthquake in Guatemala.

Getting some intensive anthem practice into my daughter. When she’s never lived in NZ, there’s only the matches on tv to learn. Really hope we are surrounded by kiwis (or Argentinians) and not disgruntled surly Irish and Welsh fans.

@Victor-Meldrew facts man, just the facts.
He did a great leap into the group hug after they won too!

@voodoo but also, you could see if you can find out the rumour about any ABs whose defence was not up to scratch.

Are you serious ?
He hasn’t selected Blackadder.
Foster is clueless.
Fat too.

We could squabble about the AB legacy.
