So, I'm procrastinating at work.
To the best of my knowledge Pakeha XV for the North.
And a Poly XV for the South with a ring in at lock (I think).
Barrett at fullback, Gregory on the wing instead of Hyland, and Black at 1st Five.

How come a little bit of Poly trumps everything? DNA tests for everyone and gotta be over 50% to represent? And what happens if like proportional representation you need to get alliances to get past the post? Who decides?

Jesus dude, it was just a little bit of fun - not everything is a culture war.

@Nepia Ha! I thought the stupidity of my post would have been self-explanatory. Will put a smiley face or some shit next time.

Opps, my bad!
FYI - I was working on the old US one drop principle or the South African pencil test.

If the Auckland lockdown continues could this game shift to Wellington or the Tron?
No,, Aucklanders aren't allowed to leave Auckland
So the blues will just send Beauds to do it on his own?

@Bovidae the Jordie at fullback discussion is an interesting one. I think there is a very real chance in an AB setting that Jordie plays wing because he’s in good form has the roving, kicking, high ball and chase game. But more pragmatically I think they will want to try the Mo’unga and Beaudie 10/15 again.
If Beaudie starts at 10 then Jordie starts at fullback. Will Jordan fights it out with the other wingers.

@ACT-Crusader does Beauden deserve the 15 jersey on anything except reputation?
-
@ACT-Crusader Jordie at wing also brings his strong defence into play more.

Many an AB has made a lineup when out of form and seemingly based on reputation
-
Hard to see them dropping Beaudie , the old its harder to get out than get in cliche
But we could end up with an interesting scenario not too far off ,if not already, with Mounga , Jordie and Jorden improving at the rate that they are .

would anyone else be keen to see selection purely on form? might see a couple of randoms get the nod

They dropped Cully back in the day. Anything is possible.

There is a balancing act , you need to be careful you dont throw all of your big match experience out with the bathwater ,
I can remember calls to drop Nonu for example based on super rugby form .
