Roigard has had what, 20 mins of rugby since end of super rugby?
He did play 50 mins for CM in a pre-season game before his AB debut.
Finau could be on the bench but they will want to start the player who they will use at 6 against France.
BB might not be risked if he isn't 100% fit. Ofa still ahead of Williams in the no.17 jersey.

If Ryan wants to rollout our A team, he is obviously pretty confident with the players that can be brought in as replacements. In encounters like these it is usually the forwards that have the most injuries. Can see him calling in Joe Moody possibly Oly Yager after this one.

Foster said at squad naming that Finau could even start and then quickly changed subject..so for me he is definitely either starting or on bench at minimum

Jacques Niebnar confirmed that the 33 originally named Boks are the ones they have submitted to World Rugby. So unless there is an injury, Handre Pollard isn't coming in. (still think they will might find an injury)
Submissions aren't final until end of August, so it doesn't matter. You can change before then with no penalty

Imagine if we could do something as simple as go onto the AB app and see when it'll be announced.
Can we fuck. Geez they're useless at simple things.
-
@Bones I dont have the app
-
@taniwharugby I do but it's pretty pointless
-
Given the team has already been named the delay to a wider audience adds nothing but pissing off loyal supporters
-
I heard it was being named about 11.30pm nz time

named publically, many people already know who is in the team as internally announced generally over 1-2 days prior historically and then those who get the sauce...
