Maybe this is another opportunity for Foster to get into the record books, along with biggest ever defeat, first loss to Argentina. (and Ireland when part of the team), etc

Oh, the team is named thursday, just not 0600
-
i will be at Bells hotel in south melbourne on sat to watch it, very much looking forward to getting down the pub for it
-
@machpants honestly, that read like last year's article, and the year before. For some reason Eden Park is a graveyard - it's astonishing. Even the talk about Laura gets it into people's heads.
I'll be here with bells and whistles. Can't wait - live rugby. Hope to god Foster makes some good selection decisions and teh team look good after time in camp.

I keep having to confirm the game is on this weekend. Chat around here has been conspicuous in it's absence. I thought we'd at least have had a scrap over the pending selection of Bridge by now.

Trap! Sprung! But I'm resigned to Cunning as A Weasel Foster's loyalty program now, he wants a slow and physically unthreatening player to act like a midfielder rather than prove he could be a weapon on the wing so there's not much more I can say.

@mariner4life did that way too much a couple of nights ago and still feeling it. Sucks getting old. On my way back south now 😒

We can only hope he got excited by Havili/ALB. That way he may not feel he needs Bridge and will play Rieko at 11.
-
@crazy-horse yeah Rieko has looked rather sharp on the wing.
-
Particularly hoping for ..............
And expect to get -
-continuation of Fiji Test 2 loose forward combo of Akira, Savea and Jacobson
-Havili and ALBAnd maybe get -
Rieko at 11
No Dmac at 15And don't expect to get -
Will Jordan at 15
Ethan De Groot at prop
