@KiwiMurph maybe NZR could also fix the shit weather while they're at it?
Forecast isn't actually too bad for the day - it's the night where things turn bad.

I have to admit that I was going to go but when I looked at the price of a shit seat and combined that with the weather report I did a 'yeah,nah'.
Might change my mind at the last minute.I think many people have realised over the years that the cheap seats at the Caketin aren't worth the coin. Too far away from the action, too far away from services, a long walk to and from the entrance.
You can deal with all of that if the game is something special but it takes that extra desire to force the $ out of pockets. -
Anyone want a bet this is starting XV?
Moody, Taylor, Tuungafasi, Tuipulotu, Whitelock, Frizell, Cane (cpt), Savea, Smith, Mounga, Bridge, Goodhue, Ioane, J.Barrett, B.Barrett.
Let’s just say not my pick, but wouldn’t bet against it

Ole boring balls-up bridge will be a disappointing selection.

@ACT-Crusader Look I Am not sold on the team I posted and I like some of your changes, however lets just say for now that when the official team comes out later I will be surprised if I am wrong, even by one.
-
@bayimports I’d be surprised to see Ofa starting. Also I get the sense that one of the newbies will debut as a starter, hence Clarke in mine.
The midfield....should be renamed the minefield given its been the biggest merry go round for the last 4 years.
It wouldn’t surprise me if any of these were named:
ALB / Ioane
Goodhue / Ioane
ALB / Goodhue -

This is close to what I am expecting although the 1st 5, right winger and fullback positions appear to be the most contentious, based on the cryptic comments by Plumtree.
-
@ACT-Crusader well we went through something similar before we settled on Nonu-Conrad, so hopefully we are getting close

Given there are so many options and all bring something different, it will be interesting calls to make.
Does Fozzie go with...
10- B. Barrett
14- J. Barrett
15- DMac -

15- DMacI'd be very surprised with specialist wingers in the squad. I'm expecting one of BB, Mo'unga or JB to miss out in the starting XV. Anyones guess who that will be at this stage.
