Pretty obvious who @Yeahtheboys supports as well. Terrible team.

That’s the joke…

This Jordie at 12 thing is really interesting.
Perhaps it depends on whether Jordan is seen as effective enough at test level as a 15.
How's his defence, positioning, high ball work and kicking game compared to Jordie?
Obviously his attack is superior. -

@tim said in All Blacks 2022:
Tupaea appears to have second season syndrome, and has struggled on defence.
Did he have a 'first' season? He was pretty much plucked from the Chiefs squad wasn't he? Did he get many starts? I don't recall anyone touting him as a potential AB before he was selected.
-
@chris Interesting team. Have heard something about Lord needing to get back into line quicker after tackles and carries. Looks to have some real ability to impact the game though.
Fainga'anuku is a real talent. Should have been in the ABs last year for some game time.
Wonder if Clarke can cover centre. Has done so for Marist, but may lack some vision? Defence is good.

LF could also cover centre in that team,
Clarke adds another impact player from the bench. -

Gregor Paul suggests an AB backline:
A back three of Havili, Will Jordan and Caleb Clarke, a midfield of Jordie Barrett and Rieko Ioane, with Aaron Smith and Beauden Barrett as playmakers and the All Blacks may have their deadliest backline in years.
@Rancid-Schnitzel you better get the tissues ready before reading this !!!!!
-
@tim Havili?
Reece, Leicester both ahead of him as a wing, surely?

I read it as Havili at 15.

Havili? Nah.
Rather have Reece on the wing and Jordan at 15.
Swapping last year's 12 & 15 ... ?

@crazy-horse Gregor must be picking from Fozzies coaching manual...
Lets shift our 12 from last year to 15, a position he hasnt played at super for 2 seasons, or in black for 4? and move the guy that has been playing 15, to 14 (obviously this isnt quite as bigger deal)

Yeah I was thinking along the same lines. That would be a backline of players playing in differing degrees of unfamiliar positions.
On a side note, I can't remember a bunch of ABs like this lot whose best position is arguable. Both Barretts, both Ioanes, Jordan, DH, Savea, Papalii, Blackadder, Goodhue, ALB. I am sure I have missed one or two.

@yeahtheboys you are joking with those props???? Delusional mate.
