I see lots of people expecting BB to "carve up" or "take his opportunity" to "put pressure" on RM this week. Bit of a shit sandwich if you ask me. Fly to Perth with key players left behind. Still tinkering with our back row. TJ back in the 9 jumper. He could easily have some pretty average ball to use.
I hope he goes well, but I won't be jumping on the bandwagon to bag him if he doesn't.
He will at least get 3 games in a row at 10
until they start DMac there v Argentina and Jordie there a week later...

Sorry you poor Mexicans down south but have to brag about tickets for the double farking header at Suncorp! How good is that.
Now, there will probably be an outbreak and it will be cancelled....

How many starts has he had at fullback?
Started 8 tests at fullback and 8 tests on the wing (7 on right and 1 on left).
Has played a bit of both off the bench.

People seem to forget sbw played two sessions in France before coming to NZ and the ABs. Even then he still couldn't de League his tackles, and had kick it dead and get a yellow brain farts for ABs. RTS had heft it too late to make the RWC squad imo, especially with covid disruptions
SBW was a back rower who moved to the midfield
RTS is a shit hot fullback who will play wing.
Give him time though, to give him the best chance. We've seen way too many shit hot League players who've turned out to be shit playing rugby at Test level.

@victor-meldrew Ouch!

@duluth thats good for Moody, it was a foot injury wasnt it he was out for, which would affect the stability on heavy lifts

Sevu avoids training...

He gets enough weight training lugging his head around all day to be fair.

Looks good form to me, Laulala looked to be struggling on the upper weight though.
