All this talk about halfbacks, rewind 12 years and it's dejavu on the Fern.....
Marshall got the first test start over Kelleher and some posters went into meltdown 😀
Also lost a hooker before the series with Anton doing a calf in the Crusaders v Highlanders match just before the series started from
memory. -
It could come down to styles , which one they feel is the better to start , and which one is better suited to close .
But now that I think about it , I think we had the same discussion a year ago on the 10s , and that didnt go as many of us thought , most of us thought Cruden the better starter , Barrett the better finisher at the time ,
So who knows

A Smith why?For me: the pass.
Add to that when he remembers he is Aaron Smith he remains awesome. I'm backing the AB coaches and environment to remind him he is Aaron Smith.

Sounds like we've picked halfbacks that are slow passes, can't box kick, get bullied and are one side dominant.
We are stuffed

I was on the A Smith train up until the weekend but during the Landers v Saders game I nearly fell off and am only just hanging on at the moment - he made some pretty poor errors. You'd hope in the AB environment he will come right but if we're honest he hasn't played with any consistency since the toilet fiasco - those pervs who recorded him have a lot to answer for.
51/49 towards Smith at the moment.

Should be TJP 9 TKB 21
Will be AS 9 TJP 21 (or vice versa)

Seems a bit odd that we haven't had a leaked team yet.
That happens on Wednesday

Luatua on the blindside. He's playing well.
