All Blacks vs Pumas II
-
@act-crusader sum of the parts will be the key though. Still very much a team game.

11 George Bridge (14) - 2nd/3rd choice LW (Ioane, Clarke(?))
Reece is ahead of him on that side too, so Ioane, Clarke, Reece, daylight, Bridge.

Clarke is not, he is available for selection and not selected - with his play this year and the fact he did 7s, he's now behind all those other players for this year.

Hopefully they will add him to squad for the end of year tour.

Clarke. Hopefully they will add him to squad for the end of year tour.
Maybe, on his play this season I wouldn't. They've got a shortage of numbers, he's well down the list.

de Groot (if fit) won't get a game until the USA now.
Patrick needs to step up as
the senior lock.a test playerFIFY
When was the last time he got game time? It's incredibly tough to come in cold.
True. Just has a history of being average at this level IMO. For such a big unit he makes little impact. I will concede that every now and then he has a stormer but hasn't been able to put together consistent performances through regular play.
Yeah, keen to see if Foster can get more out of Pat the same way he has with Akira. I don't think all players really thrived under Hansen in his later years as coach.

Foster has said in the past players don't go backwards when they are injured. He's over that now, so should be good to go.

@machpants He was pretty dire in Super rugby. He needs to go and get back some confidence in domestic rugby like Grace Cullen. Huge futures but right now there are better players ahead of them..

Sigh. He was playing with a misdiagnosed injury.

He had an excellent game vs the Highlanders. One of the best games by a winger in SR.

@act-crusader yikes
I suggest ALB is probably our first choice 12, and Goodhue our first choice 13 ... But not sure those who count see it that way

Yeah, whenever I was playing shit it was because of injury too.

Problem being, Goodhue has been a shell of his former self, very meh. Must be a misdiagnosed injury.

Righto. So leg injuries don't affect form for wingers anymore? If you were paying more attention, you'd have seen a trainer shadowing him for some of the games trying to keep him out there.
And him limping off.

I always reckon ALB is a better 13 than Goodhue, and Havili is now best 12 we got. I actually tjink Tupaea will put a bit of pressure on as a 12 too.

Tupaea had a long way to go, long long way. I don't rate him at all. Goodhue has gone backwards at a rate of knots, really it's havili, ALB, and Reiko.... Daylight
