All Blacks Vs Springboks RC Week 2
-
Based on form and especially last weekend, I'm prepared to give Shannon another start this weekend. Also I'd prefer to give DMac another start at 10 too.
I would like to see Tamaiti and Samipeni on the bench too.

Life was so much easier when we could just go….
Moody, Taylor, Williams, Whitelock, S. Barrett, Blackadder….

People that don't want Taukeiaho to start, deserve Foster.
I don’t mind if he doesn’t start, as long as he plays 35 minutes minimum
Thanks for interrupting pedicuring Fozzie to chip in.

Always here to help
And fuck you for the mental image you’ve just tattooed into my mind

If anybody is going to cost us on Saturday it will be Bongi.Not sure what the obsession is. I’ve had a long held belief about the best spot to actually captain the team from being the number 2 jersey. Maybe Fitzi planted that seed…Marx exponentially better…Bongi costs us…
Happy with the midfield and the bench. Also stoked that the weather forecast looks good. Both teams obviously amped and home will count.
Looking forward to seeing Brodie again and hoping Coles has an “average “ day…🤞🏻😏 -

Well when events change, I change my mind. What do you do?
His display was all the good things I've pointed out with practically none of the bad. Why wouldn't I want the backline operating like that again?

Well, good to see you've caught up with the rest of us who were saying this earlier in the season. Good on you!

Eben's father has passed away last night. Waiting on a call from Eben if he is coming back or will be playing.
Sad news. All the best to the big man.

I find it odd as well.
We need his bulk and carrying from the start and he is probably our best at getting over the gain line consistently.
His set piece work is just as good as the others.
I feel that Taylor and Coles are more suited to coming off the bench.
-
@DaGrubster yeah it just wastes the best attributes of all the players. ST isn't the guy you want coming on for 20 to work the opposition. That's when you want the hole runners / ball players. Grunt up front.
-
@G-Man really sad, he should be on the first plane home. Start RG Snyman and bring a real 6 (Escom or Brannas) on the bench. Sous can cover lock.

@Bones The Bok replacement front row don't have much, if any, drop off from those they will be replacing, so I'm not sure there will be the holes from the Bok front row players to take advantage of. Bok replacement front row can be introduced anywhere from 30 mins to 50 mins into the game.
ST could start and be told to go at the Bok starting front row and give the AB's an edge in the set piece. Or he could be brought on fresh to counter the Bok's better hooker Marx.
ST is the AB's best hooker right now. So whenever he comes on, it needs to be for at least 50 mins.
