@NTA That looks pretty close to the mark. I think i'd have DHP at fullback ahead of Banks - DHP is no good on the wing but a good fullback and more well rounded than Banks to me.
Either Banks fails and I get to tell Brumbies fans (both of them) that he was never worthy despite all their jizzmatic explanations supporting his selection, or he succeeds and I get a Bledisloe win.
There's no loser here.

Is bled 2 at ASB stadium?
Auckland council don't really let you have anything. In spite of the fact that you own the place and pay them shit loads for rates for which you receive no services. That should also read consents not concerts. They don't allow them either. In spite of a housing crisis apparently.
Set me off briefly there.
As for the rugby - if that is the Aussie team it won't be like like England where we got smashed off the park. I like that our coach has recognised that though, and selection gets more interesting. Loosies in particular, we don't have much choice at lock.

@Canes4life Jordie needs to be seen properly at 12 at Super level before International level though.

I'm actually starting to feel a bit giddy over some test match rugby. Sadly It'll probably be a bit shit, as we normally are first test of the year.
Yeah. That last bit is just a fact of life.
We can hope for a change? Nah. It will be shit from us (disappointment disappoints me, so I prefer the expectment management and then I won't be disappointed).

@NTA Or he plays well and you still lose by 30.
You underestimate my ability to blame the Ponies for everything.
I'll admit, it is possible. But fullback is a pivotal defensive position so it is easy to blame them.
For example: Chris Fucking Latham in 2000 letting in 3 tries early. See?

To which the follow-up comment is "Fucking Reds players. Always letting us down".
Next week in Welly: "That John Eales is a fucking great Aussie player. Surprising that he came out of Queensland".

You're getting CRL though, that's where the money is going.

Can you take this elsewhere? We actually have test rugby to talk about for a change and you want to whinge about rates FFS!

Training in Hamilton last week was very secretive as only authorised people were allowed through the gate at Waikato Stadium (sorry, FMG Stadium Waikato), and you can't see in from the outside. Who knows were the ABs are based in Wellington. Aussie is in Queenstown.

Where are the leaks? Where are the rumours?
Pretty quiet for a Tuesday.
Yea! even the ole "Player X/Y/Z was training in the 12/6/8 Jersey
Exactly. We normally have a media report of x and y were lining up at 10 and 12 etc.

They usually train at Rugby League Park in Newtown.
And stay at the InterContinental if you want to make a breakfast booking. -

Great when it reaches Warkworth I'm happy to pay for it, and yeah we'll leave that there.
