@sparky I don’t know 100%. But I think it’s exactly the same squad as TRC with Roigard swapping with Hotham.
Players from both squads will be able to play for both teams from what I heard.
I’d say the 23 for the England game will go straight over. The Japan game will be rest of squad filled with NZXV players. -

That’s the obvious conclusion when you analyse options.
The XV is where the interesting selections will be.Players from both squads will be able to play for both teams from what I heard.

Anyone got any oil on who is going to make the squad?
Sure do.
About 95% of the guys who are there already
With that insider knowledge you must be Razor’s mum

Handing out caps like confetti
So if 23 go to London, who will be coaching them while The ABs play Japan?

Got my tickets to Paris
Always like the French fans as they support their team but also respect the ABs. First time to watch France play in France (whether nz or another team). See how that marseillaise sounds when 60000 French sing it live.

Same. Much cheaper than the Ireland game.

Best atmosphere I've seen in Europe (but I've not been to a game in Dublin).

I’ve been quite a few times to the aviva (as I lived for a while in Ireland). If the home team is winning it’s not bad but you never feel that close to the action and the low side (because residents wouldn’t agree to higher stands) reduces the feel. Stade de France is a great stadium imo. The sound system and lighting is all class. The areas it’s in is a kip though so you always head back into Paris central.

Yeah I paid €50 for a ticket. Makes up for the small fortune I forked out for NZ vs Arg quarter final. It’s always hard to get tickets in Dublin too.

How good was Roigard on his first game back? Notised DP being taken off, hopefully nothing serious.Generational talent.
Doesnt have Smiths pass (who does) but christ he is good with ball in hand.
Image how great he'll be regarded after he's started his second Test at 9, this time against top opposition.....
Talent for sure, but let's not get too carried away or raise expectations.
