I'm with you here, I've said the same (either here or elsewhere):
@Damo said in RWC: England v New Zealand (SF1):
I think picking Scott Barrett is primarily around the lineout. With Barrett there we will have 4 frontline defensive lineout options
But I'm so not with you here:
@Damo said
We don't lose anything on defence with Barrett, nor do we lose much of Cane's impact at the breakdown. Cane will come on fresh in the second half and can go nuts for 30 minutes on defence if required.
I think Cane is our hardest hitter by a long shot. His physicality in the tackle and at the breakdown is just extraordinary.
Barrett was pretty strong of defence and In the breakdown against the boks and also in the second half against Ireland. I don't think we lose much at all in that regard.

@canefan where have you been the last 24hrs bro! Not working or something I hope! :face_with_stuck-out_tongue:
Just landed in Tokyo!
Bastard!!!
And I can't answer your question - except to say, in Hanson we trust (until we don't...)

@bayimports said in RWC: England v New Zealand (SF1):
Ok so don’t have full team this week... however, from inside the camp....
S Barrett replaces Cane at 6, Tuipolotu on the bench for Todd. Savea at 7. Cane on bench.
Perhaps wrist not great, or just want a bigger/taller team
Great oil. You have some awesome sauces.

I think Tuilagi at 13 is best for England, so that puts Farrell at 12 and Ford at 10.
Lateral defence being the issue. Won't be surprised if ABs target that channel with ALB and Mulletboi off set piece.
There was a game years ago in NZ where we had players getting around Tuilagi on his outside .
And Im sure its in the memories of Shag and co if i can remember it

@sparky thanks, you should also try my bbq and tomato versions too
I have been fortunate this time around for sure..hopefully get to do the same for next week for the main final, but dont want to be too presumptuous yet!
All do you think I hold back so the journos lurking can get their oil from elsewhere? ha ha

No , we are more important than worrying about Journos

If the NZHerald 'rumours' really are sourced from here. Then, if we get through to the final - can you please not leak it on here. Would be the patriotic thing to do .....
If we're playing for 3rd, then I don't care .....
Quite a big leak this one IMO, a surprising formation change - given Eddie several days head start - if he has no other sources.

Or even better put out a 'red herring' line-up to keep em guessing. What's this? Ardie to centre? Masterstroke Mr Hanson!

Eddie is on these boards anyway. At least it's either him or his twin brother...

That's Paul Tito isn't it?
Nah it's the nine who played for the canes last season, surely?
Steven Kitshoff?
Oh hang on, that's not right either
