RWC: All Blacks v Canada (Pool B)

@ACT-Crusader reckon Bender will get plenty of time once they've had BB stretch his legs a bit. Wondering how much mixing and matching we'll see at 12/13 with our starters + Crotty. This is the biggest midfield combo we've rolled out in ages, Canada must be mucho excited lol

:Good on him. I wonder what it's like when he plays in the rain?
He'll need little windscreen wipers on them.
we finally found a use for halfbacks!

I only remember Italian international Ian McKinley wearing goggles. Have there been more players playing test rugby with them?
Ian McKinley: Italy's Irish Super Hero - italy
IN THE SPOTLIGHT: For some rugby players being partially blind would be enough to hang up your boots, however not for Italian international Ian McKinley.
-
that is one of the most ridiculous things i have ever seen. he's not serious about playing in those is he? I'm being merked here right?

Kareem Abdul Jabber played basketball in some pretty silly looking goggles too

It may look unusual, but protecting your eyesight is more important than looking cool.

If he was worried about looking cool the sideshow Bob haircut isn’t helping, actually the eyesight might explain the hairstyle choice.

i couldn't give a fuck about how it looks.
As someone who lives and spends a lot of time training in a high heat, high humidity environment, i have a little experience about how glasses and goggles deal with it. I'll be very interested to see how he deals with that. If he drops a ball because there is sweat on his lenses people are going to lose their shit.

@mariner4life unfortunately he hasn't been training in them all week, otherwise they would have discovered and sorted all these issues.
-
@Machpants training and games, very much the same thing

@mariner4life it is when you are playing Canada.
