@stargazer I hope the game stream is better quality than that - and they have higher audio.

@nepia The stream looks fine to me. Audio, yep, they need to turn the volume up!
The stream is less than SD for me - just double checked other sites vids to see quality and they were all fine.
Must be stupid Oz internet.

Or it's a Brazilian thing? All bass and a bit of fuzz?

@stargazer is he injured?
Would seem strange he isnt staying for the whole tour, or maybe since he thought he should be an AB, the rest of the Maori games are beneath him?

One of my mates is over helping to prep the Chilean team at the mo. He helped them out when they played Brazil earlier this year and was very impressed with the Brazil setup. Says they have set a realistic goal of qualifying for the 2027 RWC. The team are mostly pro now, living and training together and he reckons they are pretty massive boys. They are very well funded as apparently the Brazilian govt has a scheme whereby companies can offset their tax liability by sponsoring sports teams. I recall Heineken have got the deal for Brazil RU. Nevertheless he is expecting the Brazil team to be well beaten by the Maori at this stage and the Chilean Condores to get a hiding.

There are four changes to the run-on side from the team that beat USA 59 – 22 in Chicago last week. Prop Marcel Renata, loose forward Billy Harmon, halfback Jonathan Ruru and outside back Matty Lansdown will all get a start this week. Jackson Hemopo, Bryn Hall and Matt Proctor joined the squad in Sao Paulo after completing their All Blacks duties in Japan last week. All three will provide firepower from the bench.Robbie Abel has been bracketed alongside skipper Ash Dixon who is recovering from a knee injury, and if required Ross Wright will cover the bench in the replacement hooker’s position. “Ash is obviously a huge part of our on-field leadership, so we want to give him as much time as possible to get over a stinger he took to the knee. Robbie and Ross will step up if required,” he said.No info about Weber.
