Yeah but if another lock gets injured and then two props and another loose forward get injured we're fucked aren't we, it'll be Tupaea.
These selections are ridiculous!

A pretty "B" looking starting XV.
If we were playing a RWC knock out match tomorrow and everyone was fit and in form, I think we'd field the below - with a caveat that I'm not entirely sure about how they'd deploy the locks/loosies. "A team" members in this current team bolded.
Williams, Taylor, Lomax, Barrett, Vai'i, Finau(??), Savea, Sititi, Roigard, Mo'unga, Clarke, JBarrett, Ioane, Reece, Jordan.

If you're going to include Mo'unga then surely you include Frizzell?

@Canes4life And Aaron Smith surely? And Ma'a Nonu for that matter?

May as well add Rettalick to the list.

Brennan as a 7. Someone is looking to maul it all night.

Early onset is a bitch.

France have players who normally play Lock at 7 and 8. Lots of speed in their backline. And a 6-2 split in the bench. And no debutantes.

Love definitely has confidence, hopefully he can show that on Saturday night.

Love and Jordan together, how good.
Interesting though, didn't Jordan have a niggle this week? They could have brought in Narawa to start to make it an 'almost' Chiefs backline.
