All Blacks v Springboks I
-
Going to be interesting,
Before the Argie 2 game ,I honestly thought we might be on a upwards trajectory mainly due to the forwards , tight 5 in particular. Then we served up that pile of dog shit where it feels like any progress all came undone .
I suspect Rassie will target that tight 5 and holland in particular to see if he can find a chink and a barrage of high balls are coming our way , if we play the same back 3 I think we are in trouble.
If Clarke isn’t ready , I’d play love ( he’s 24 now if he’s not ready yet when is he ready ? ) at 15 Jordan at 14 , can narawa play 11 .? What is carter like under the high ball ?

Preston withdrawn from NPC.
Roigard not ready.
Any word on Ratima's injury? Could be related to that too.

Anton Lienert-Brown is probably the best distributing centre in NZ - just saying...
When he's not in the bin?
See, none of our contenders are perfect, ALB can't stay on the field, Rieko can't pass and Proctor can't
walk on waterdefend.
And Leicester is laughing

Leicester is an even worse defender than Proctor.

Yeah agreed on Ennor - thought he had by far his best season. I would welcome.him into the squad.
He drops the ball cold in front of the line every season. He's a butterfly fingers.

Amen, anyone who saw him in games in top 14 should tell you thst.
Then read his stats, really backs it up. Couple of games I saw, he didn't even look interested in tackling anyone who didn't rub directly at him. -

Someone has to step up otherwise Razor won't hesitate to pull the trigger for Leicester

I think Razor is aware of this hence why he rarely selected him at center for the Crusaders. Rieko at 11 is most at risk.

It will be the same team, I suspect, but with Christie starting and Preston on the bench.
That would be just what a high performing team would do.
