Sparky's Team for Brisbane
Karl T, Coles, Ofa T, Whitelock (c), Tuipolotu, A. Ioane, A. Savea, Sotutu, A.Smith, Mo'unga, C.Clarke, Laumape, ALB, W.Jordan, J.Barrett
Subs: Hodgman/Moody, Aumua, Lomax, S.Barrett, Papali'i, Weber, B.Barrett, R.Ioane
Is Sam Cane out injured for Bled 4 or are you giving him a break?
He definitely shouldn't be rested unless injured. He's the captain.
-
It is hard to know what they should do, as Cane mentioned this team has got better each week, do you just make minimal changes and finish off the Wallabies with strongest team? Moody in, RI for JB and Savea to bench.
Or do you think we only have 3 games left let's mix and match and give the wider squad some minutes.
I suspect they will make minimal changes as they want to win the Tri Nations as their first priority and we need to win next week to do that. -
@Victor-Meldrew Resting him.

Guess it would allow Ardie to start with Akira to bench. But I doubt Cane if fit would want to miss a game.

Build your core team as a priority but give the likes of Akira, Reiko and Aumua a run off the bench.
Agree but would love to see Reiko starting.
Still rate him higher than Clarke.
Starting them both would be pretty handy.

How does that work with a second openside?
IF Cane is out means Papalii or Kirifi has to be in the XXIII.
Or a 6-2 bench?

Not sure it's what he was thinking but watching Sotutu, I was left wondering after the game if he might make a decent fist of covering 7.

Have you seen how fit Akira looks at the moment? I would rather have him covering 6,7,8 then have Kirifi there for just 7. I have not seen enough of Paps to see if he is better than Akira at covering all. Do we need a specialist 7 on the bench these days? Cane plays pretty tight and a lot like a 6 to me anyway.

You have to get players from somewhere.
