    I'd still have the midfield swapped around but it went O.K. last week and they seem to be flexible about it on the field i.e the numbers don't matter too much.

    Fozzie obviously has a plan though - it's not a trivial move to swap these guys around.

    So does Jack offer a bit more size to run hard at the line - i.e. for Aaron Smith's try on Sunday? Or does ALB (and Rieko) offer a bit more speed at centre?

    Or is it more defensive?

    Ha. I asked these questions before last test and I don't think that they were answered.

    I would stick with the same pair though.

    A and B i reckon. JG fair smacked in to the line a few times on the weekend, and created quick recycle. He's also solid defensively

    @Snowy I'd say zero chance that these two don't start together if everyone is available.

    Slightly more chance that they swap numbers! 🙂

    And with Beaudy and Jordie in the team it doesn't matter that he's an inside centre rather than a second five (providing kicking and playmaking options).

    Do we persist with Jordie on the wing?

    JB does sometimes look a little bit lost on defence on the wing, the Koroibete try is a good example when he moves to his left instead of holding his position out wide. The thing is that Reece also has issues defending on the wing, as does Jordan. Rieko would be in the only other "safe" option if there was to be a change.

    Well he's not Japanese, (and beautiful, wise and child don't really fit) so it must be Rieko.

    It appears to me they want JG at 12, I'm less convinced on who they want at 13 though, if that try hadn't gone begging would they have started RI or was rotating RI and ALB always the plan?

    I personally think ALB/JG or i guess JG/ALB is what I prefer, but I would like RI to start at 14, given there is no way Clarke doesn't start the next test...it then comes to which Barrett starts, BB for me.

    Agree. Oughtn't to be beyond the wit of man for JG and ALB to alternate a bit on our ball.

    Be interesting to see if Fozzie makes changes other than injury related. Hope he doesn't

    Can't see 6-8 changing as that looks to be his preferred option and 9-13 will probbly stay the same. Just don't get the Jordie Barrett selection. He deserves to be in the team, but at 14?

    Judging by "Match FIt" on TV3 Pita Alatini and Troy Flavell could be in line for recalls. Some great fitness and form shown by those two.

    I'm interested to see what happens there with Moody's situation, as well as any other niggles that get a look.

    You'd think, having won by 20, there won't be much to change, and the question is how Rennie responds.

    I didn't think there was much wrong with our side besides a couple of brainfarts, but Toomua's absence creates issues in terms of selecting a ball playing 12 with a boot who can bring maturity to that backline.

    When he went off, Paisami moved in, and I thought things got a little flaky through the middle there.

    Key question I think for Rennie is how he responds to the AB physicality at the breakdown

    When he went off, Paisami moved in, and I thought things got a little flaky through the middle there.

    Not helped by the fact the AB's had an experienced midfielder at 13 whose defence was Nonu-like.
