RWC: All Blacks v South Africa (Pool B)

[Chris B.]

@rotated Yeah - I'd say anyone who doesn't play well in the midfield or outside backs could potentially give up their spot with the exception of Beauden.

I think the only guys who are not really contending for a spot in the match 23 (barring injury) are Moli, Coltman, Weber - and possibly Jordie.

@voodoo Beauden Barrett going to wing isn’t a waste and is not unprecedented. But I think Ben is insurance but will provide good spark for 15-20.

I dunno, I'd say BB at wing for the last 15 would be a bit of a waste, I think even if they left RM out there they'd shift BB into playmaker as much as possible. I'd want the ball in his hands as much as possible running at tired oppo in the last 15

So amped! Don’t know how the players keep calm

[Rapido]

Oh yeah, I guess I need to exit the French v Arg game to actually see this. Streaming, so weird.

Normally in the 60s, currently 82. Bet I get way above 100

[Jailbreak7]

@Stargazer I was calm earlier on, but now starting to feel the nerves jangling. Hate the waiting.

He’s been good I thought, very polished.

I’d prefer a Kiwi with some rugby credibility.
