    @Crucial That's what I'm picking they'll do. ALB/Crotty is the proven combo but SBW's line-bending potential is just tooooo much to resist.

    @Marty and having Crotty on the bench gives them heaps of options alongside ALB. Sucks a bit for Goodhue but ALB is our form player of the RWC so far, irresistible form.

    To be fair, after looking like he had concrete boots early on, I thought Goodhue was pretty decent in the second half. High work rate, involved in a lot of linking plays. He's on the right trajectory.

    He wasn't spectacular, but looked confident and more comfortable than in his previous outing, so yeah, moving in the right direction after a long lay-off.

    Thought Reiko improved as well. Not there yet by some way, but some nice touches.

    On that analysis I reckon they will go for SBW/ALB

    I'd think that's dead cert if we end up playing England

    Saw that. Sumo is rather woke unfortinately as I quite enjoy his commentary. Don't get him over this side of the deetch of course. Being woke he's looking for the controversy.

    On Quinnie. I am inclined to agree with him. I didn't hear their comments but from what he implies if the broadcasters in question suggested that was a "rugby league" try they should be admonished by their employers for:

    1. Showing an ignorance of the sport they are commenting on
    2. Promoting a sport they are not being paid to comment on

    I suggest they are guilty of being sucked into Australian media hype about "the greatest gaaame of awl". I have heard plenty of comment about how Rugby copied loigue in removing the corner flag. People in that position need to know their history.

    It seems to me they were unprofessional. His comment about sacking is obviously a joke ... comedy ... and I assume he didn't assume gender ... so may have been stating a fact when he said they were women ...

    Probably one for the Politics thread.

    @jegga ...his commentary style had started to wear a bit thin I find. If he can't tell this is a joke and he thinks 'wokeness' is something the average sports fan is looking for in a commentator then I don't see his popularity lasting.

    It's an emoji that indicates 100%, 100 marks out of a 100 etc.

    Standard these days. People being put above criticism as they aren't straight white males.

    I blame Anika Moa(n).

    Will be interesting to see where the coaches go with the mid-field, as you get the feeling they have been wanting the SBW-Goodhue one, but the Crotty-ALB one put out the best performance of the year so far, while the ALB-Goodhue one is the one they would dearly love to work as this will be our combo next year...and then the SBW-Crotty one has numbers on the board.

    Crotty has 6 more tests than ALB. Sonny-Bill has 16. Crotty and SBW have started together a mere twelve times. It's not a lot more "numbers on the board" to be honest.

    They won't care about next year, so Goodhue won't be picked on that basis.

    @Chester-Draws you are always so literal.

    Is still numbers on the board - it is a combo they know works...and the most used combo of those 4 players

    I think they have wanted Goodhue in the 15 for a while now, ALB's form is such that they are re-thinking how they work that, whether ALB is at 12 or push him to 13 and start SBW or Crotty...I know they dont give a shit about 2020 right now, I type 'as' instead of 'and'
