All Blacks v Ireland II
-
Mystique is her stage name
-
@mariner4life touché

So Mariner does that mean Toner met her in a club in Chicago in game week.
Did Schmidt know about this ? -
@RoninWC I think they'll select Naholo on the bench and use Smith as the back-up centre. They've done that earlier this season.
As for the starting XV, the team @Crucial listed looks right to me, provided Whitelock is good to go. If Whitelock isn't 100% there is no reason to put him on the bench - so Pat T starts. Squire was woeful on Chicago so would not make my 23 on form. Barrett in the reserves as insurance for BBBR and to provide specialist cover.

I had a look at the comments on that mystique article and mostly they were giving stuff a bollocking for talking crap, also I see Pot Hale was in there stirring a little bit too.

Only issue is most of those second games were at Eden Park...or at the very least in NZ...😳

And we were only playing Australia

And after giving it more thought, we probably haven't had one of those crunch games without the old brigade of Richie and co yet either .
I guess we find out a lot about this group, we have seen plenty of how well they play when its all going there way ,
Im fairly confident they will be up for it .

Been very little coming out of the camp, there is no way they are not focused, it will burn to be the first ab team to lose to the Irish, I doubt they want another minor tag attached to them either if they are the first ab team this decade to lose back to back to a team, plus then Matt Watsons wet dream will come true and this will be on the verge of being the worst season since 1998.

Boom!

It finally happened! We were arrogant and disrespectful and that's why we lost:
"I think they showed a little bit of arrogance there and lack of respect with some of their selections." -
Going to be interesting , I would not be overly surprised if we blew them away , and I wouldn't be surprised if it went down to the wire either .
I think we will rectify most of the things that went wrong in Chicago such as the breakdown and lineout .
i do think they will start beuadan, , love him as a player , but have concerns sooner or later , if he is the goalkicker , it's going to cost us an important test match.

@nzzp Fuck me that NZH subbie's a piece of work. Click-bait headline or what - "I think they showed a little bit of arrogance there and lack of respect with some of their selections."
Isn't that effectively what 90% of the posts here were saying after the game?
