@darylmitchell

Lost to Lions the year before too.

Our record in Wellington is by far the worst in Mz

[Toddy]

Looks to still be a heap of tickets available as well.

Last few pages have left me thinking I’m the only somewhat unfit not ripped poster on the forum. Everyone else lifting weights…

You are not alone William. Solidarity.

Don't you mean solidity?

Brace yourself for the team naming.

[frugby]

Jordan, ALB and Darry start. Tuipulotu injured.

[Canes4life]

I don't get the ALB selection, if Ioane isn't starting then surely Proctor deserves that opportunity being the form 13. I actually wouldn't have minded if ALB and Proctor started again together to send a rocket up J Barrett aswell.

@Toddy I think a lot of people have their eye on the Aus test in September rather than this week's Argies test.

If it wasn't for SBW's shoulder we would have been sweet.

Yeah the ABs don't have a good record in Welly and we can't even blame the poor weather. The last two tests I've been to were perfect conditions and we lost against South Africa in the last second, and then Ireland aswell. Hopefully we can turn it around.

The allocation of tests this year is odd.

Argentina aren't a draw so would have made more sense to move them out of Eden Park and Sky Stadium that already have other big tests.

[Canes4life]

@KiwiMurph yeah they should have played the Argie game in Chch or another venue. Probably get a similar crowd and it will look better on TV.

Or instead of playing England in Dunners they could have played that test in Wellington and then played the Argie test in Dunners.

[KiwiMurph]

@Canes4life Hamilton get no tests....

[Canes4life]

@KiwiMurph oh yeah that's crazy. Definitely should have shared it around.

[Darren]

I don’t have instagram. Can someone post the team pls

@Darren

[Bovidae]

If you are Arg you would be putting pressure on the AB locks in the lineout to force them to throw to a loosie.

[KiwiMurph]

Another year and no solution at 6.

Pleased that Darry and Lord will get mins

Good oil from the Otago username who got this early. Chapeau, sir. It looked wild, and it is wild!

[frugby]

Disappointing team. Blackadder never the answer at 6, Ratima deserved to start, Clarke deserved to start at 11 too... had heard Jordan was starting, bench spot only makes sense on his return. Will be fun to see what he can do off the bench.
