dont want the opposition to know all our secrets....
Our secrets seem to be:
Lack physicality, don't commit numbers to rucks, put everybody out of position (particularly mid field where it really counts defensively), unbalance the loosies, lack impact off the bench with fresh fast players, wings that are slow...Fuck that was going to be a long post. I shall now go back to the grumpy old man one.

Our lineout looks pretty vulnerable. A skinny rookie lock, no targets at 7 or 8, and an unproven six (is he any good as a target?).
Sotutu should be starting at 8, and would give an option.
Pretty sure I’ve seen Savea taking plenty of lineout ball?

Ive seen Michael Hooper win ball as well, doesn't mean he's an option except as the surprise. Generally doesn't work twice in a week.
Still, if can win the ball at 2, Smith's pass makes it still good attacking ball.

@mariner4life according to ESPN stats, George Bridge won a lineout...although I assume a quick throw counts for a lineout win
-
@mariner4life Mmm...maybe was a bit harsh but along the lines of "you have to expect a contest", " you can't always get the results you want", " type lecture.

doesn't matter, my opinion is set
Never liked that jaffa, right back to when we used to rip the piss out of him for being a pussie on the field.

One upside from the team announcement is now I know Ian Foster reads my posts closely .. and then does the exact opposite.
Sounds like an ex-girlfriend.
What a midfield: keep your friends close and your mullets closer. Good to know the Barretts can afford kickbacks, and Ardie must be a top 8 given his towering height.
But Foster is slipping, playing a winger who is actually fast and in position is a surprise innovation. -
Can anybody water a Foster interview?
I lasted about 30 seconds-would rather watch paint vomit.
Must be a tactic to keep the charisma dry.
Poor Sotutu.
