I'm picking Goodhue starts at 2nd 5.
Either is fine by me as long as they play like they did last night.
And Ireland play like the Blues?

Well, I hope Reiko has a bit more impact than he did last night.

@Victor-Meldrew well alot will depend on our forwards.
If Ireland shut us down like the saders shut the Blues down, then, nope....but I do hope that game gave Foz & Co some thoughts about gameplans...

I'm still picking it will be Jack, as well - because Fozzie won't have forgotten that Dave struggled to get over the advantage line against the better teams last year.
But, Dave has certainly played better than the other contenders in the past couple of weeks.

So the biggest outcome from last night is that Havili will now probably be the frontrunner for the 12 jersey.
I think you're, not only because of how DH played himself, but I suspect RM now has the jump at 10 and they will want to preserve that combo

Look forward to seeing the 1st team naming...
Ireland at $4 head to head seems attractive right now.Foster and Co need to deliver some wins, and the Irish will be sensing some vulnerabilities, particularly in the pack.
Really concerned with our forwards just not convinced we have the right mix of props or loosies.
Midfield selections will be interesting, hope to see some combos develop at the very least.

@Tim I think they should bring in Weber as injury replacement. We need an experienced starting 9. But it won't happen, because how then do you justify picking Christie over Weber?
Depends on how much store Foster sets on one game I guess (though Ginger has faded a bit in the last few games). Wouldn't be surprised to see Fakatava the preferred no.9 by the 3rd Test.

Where's Razor
Will the pain continue? -
The Māori team can put a marker down by winning their game before the 1st test. This actually becomes an interesting game to look at the strengths and weaknesses of NZ teams against NH opposition like the Irish before the ABs take the field. You would imagine that Ireland won't play any different.

Gcobani Bobo on the SuperSport program suggested the coaches pick Faainganuku at 12 and honestly it's not the worst idea.
Was there a worse one? Did someone suggest picking Franks at 12?
Yes, Schalk Burger suggested @Bones
