North vs South

It's basically the Crusaders/Canterbury versus the rest. God help us if the South win.

Just putting it out there, I will be supporting the South team.

@Hooroo said in North vs South:

The South will get towelled up if there is any sort of intensity to this game.

My prediction is untold - nil in first 40 mins and then heaps of changes and a word to back off in second half.

The TAB is basically giving away free money with their odds on the South.

North is going to get an ass-whupping of monumental proportions, unless their loose forwards can somehow keep things respectable.

[Tim]

@number9 Sunday.

[Bovidae]

11 am on Sunday.

Live on SS1 too.

what All Blacks games have been announced? what games are we announcing a squad for?

[number9]

Cheers guys.
Hopefully they consider players that were unable to play the North v South match.

@ACT-Crusader said in North vs South:

I reckon Smith and Perenara get 40 each so I wouldn’t be too concerned on that one.

More worried about South’s halfbacks...

That really sums up the problem here; why not just have the Probables versus possibles, so we can see Perenara versus Smith?

No.

Trials are as boring as hell.

There could be an announcement tomorrow (RC or 4 BC games only).

Stink that TJ is starting.

Good to see Pocock lite not make the team. Hugely overrated within the media.

Injuries in this game could be a factor (hopefully zero but certainly possible).

Aaron Smith played a huge number of minutes for the Highlanders, is 31 and is clearly the Half Back in NZ. I can understand the AB selectors trying to manage his workload.

so, two trophies up for grabs...looks a little fragile
