Look forward to seeing the 1st team naming...
Ireland at $4 head to head seems attractive right now.Foster and Co need to deliver some wins, and the Irish will be sensing some vulnerabilities, particularly in the pack.
Really concerned with our forwards just not convinced we have the right mix of props or loosies.
Midfield selections will be interesting, hope to see some combos develop at the very least.

@Tim I think they should bring in Weber as injury replacement. We need an experienced starting 9. But it won't happen, because how then do you justify picking Christie over Weber?
Depends on how much store Foster sets on one game I guess (though Ginger has faded a bit in the last few games). Wouldn't be surprised to see Fakatava the preferred no.9 by the 3rd Test.

Where's Razor
Will the pain continue? -
The Māori team can put a marker down by winning their game before the 1st test. This actually becomes an interesting game to look at the strengths and weaknesses of NZ teams against NH opposition like the Irish before the ABs take the field. You would imagine that Ireland won't play any different.

Gcobani Bobo on the SuperSport program suggested the coaches pick Faainganuku at 12 and honestly it's not the worst idea.
Was there a worse one? Did someone suggest picking Franks at 12?
Yes, Schalk Burger suggested @Bones

The Saffas are still watching Super Rugby? I thought they only focused on their new competition that they can win these days.

Is their new comp basically just Currie Cup?

@canefan Uhm, you know they're playing in the United Rugby Championship?
They = Bulls, Sharks, Lions and this year's URC winners, the Stormers.
No. That sounds like Super Rugby. Minus SRA.... For a guy who would follow SR religiously, play the tipping games, watch all the tests, my interest is at an all time low right now

It's on at a favourable time for them is the big one. But also they recognize the quality of skill on display is often superior, even if their own rugby can match or better super rugby in terms of physicality.
