    @Bones as long as we adjust too...

    The thing being, it requires an adjustment for us. It's Ireland's bread and butter...

    Weather forecast looks shit. Is this a negative for us? The game slowing down will benefit the Irish but we are a pretty decent wet weather team as well.

    it looks like the heavier rain is in the middle of the day , hopefully eased off by gametime

    So supposedly a source close to the team have passed on to a mate (and so on)...so take with a grain of salt*.. Anyway they believe that unless injury occurs the team was announced internally yesterday.

    1 Moody 2 Taylor 3 Laulala 4 Brodie 5 Whitelock 6 Savea 7 Cane 8 Read
    9 Smith 10 Mounga 11 Bridge 12 ALB 13 Goodhue 14 Reece 15 B Barrett

    16 Coles 17 Ta’avao 18 (only one couldnt remember) 19 S Barrett 20 Todd
    21 TJ 22 SBW 23 J. Barrett

    Lets see later in the week, but a few talking points for sure.

    • to their credit, they did predict the first team exactly, but I still have no idea who the source is. However sharing for the fun of it anyway

    perhaps given now Jordie can play 10 at a push?

    And @cgrant I agree surely its Ofa

    @bayimports We've already got two tens so I don't think it's that.

    Risky game to play two hookers. And give Aaron or Ben a debut there.

    I was curious as to how good Coles would be at tighthead. Guess we'll find out.

    Mobile pack anyway.

    For those that are held up on numbers, its interesting.. if I go to edit mode

    Smith is 9 and Coles in 16

    So either a bug, or one of you funny buggers has a great edit feature 🙂

    Remove the dots after the numbers and it’ll work

    The software thinks you’re adding an ordered list and gets confused

    Looks like a strong team, only wish ALB and Goodhue had the Italy game as a hit out, no doubt they have been training a lot together. I would also have BFA instead of the Giraffe. I guess the Giraffe being able to play the entire backline helps.

    I'd rather see ALB at 13 and Crotty in the 23.

    I'd also rather Pat T on the bench, he's a physical beast and can add a real point of difference in the final 20

    @bayimports Won't surprise me if that's the team.

    The team The Herald released reckoning it was the team to play Italy had Goodhue at centre - and it looked very much a shadow No. 1 side.

    I'm slightly surprised that Jordie makes the bench ahead of Ben Smith - not many changes they could make to field less caps in the backs - BFA, Crotty and Rieko all on the outer - they could have picked Brad Weber, I guess.

    We'll see for sure on Thursday.

    Yeah if Jordie Mac is selected it may point to one of Barrett or Mo'unga having a slight injury impacting goal-kicking?
