So the 'talk' this morning is that LF comes in for Jordan, QT is at 12 and SB is at 6.
You have to wonder if this is guesswork from journos or actual knowledge as there's no mention of where Clark fits, who starts at 10, whether AS is ready......
To paraphrase Byron Kelleher this feels like 2019 all over again.
It'll be the same gameplan as 2017, too

wasnt SB at lock with Kaino on that infamous day?
A touch of irony if he would move from lock to 6 against Ireland...his last outing at 6 went well though

@taniwharugby Telea leapfrogs Bridge.
George won't mind. Probably makes a change from people running around him.

Going to be interesting to see how many of these changes have been forced on Foster and co. and how many were planned. Might be a disaster, but might be the making of some players.

@Machpants TBF, Akira probably more skills as a 13 than Manu Tuilagi.

Well his availability is marginally more anyway.

@Kiwiwomble Looks like a lay-out that is made to fit in the photo. It looks terrible.

If you mean that test in Chicago, no. The starting locks were Tuipulotu and Kaino. Scott Barrett made his test debut in that game via the bench, and actually played well. He scored a try on debut.

@KiwiMurph said in All Blacks v Ireland - 1st Test:
Barrett at 6 and Ennor at 23.
This coaching group are soft as butter.
Add Ofa starting to the puzzle queue

looooooooooooooooool
get fucked

@Crucial said in All Blacks v Ireland - 1st Test:
Both Papalii AND PGS on bench. Does that mean they are looking to sub either Cane or Ardie?
You don't need a lock on the bench when you have a lock at 6.
It's like admitting one of them should be playing 6 without the balls to actually do it.
