Springboks v All Blacks 2
-
Two things are going to happen. Status quo, we get humped, still can't take a high ball and Marx has another day out at the ruck.
Or, Fozzie finally admits to the group, "I got nuthin', just go an play", they do and they look good in the 2nd 40 to take a win.
Either way, NZRU part ways with Foz, Schmidt comes in as non travelling care taker head coach and Razor as his traveling assistant.

Who's the ref? Hopefully one that doesn't allow disrupting jumpers at the high ball with no intention of catching (I thought they worked that one out years ago when the Bokke first tried it) and one that doesn't reward a jackal if the tackler still has their arms around the tackled player.

Im thinking that Both Beauden and Jordie might be out injured, def Jordie by looks of it with his lower leg. Jordan at FB Richie at 10, reece to 14? TBH don't think Foster will make many other changes from what he is saying (Don't panic, group growing.....). There are changes the Fern wants and then what Foster wants haha!
As I and others have mentioned its more about a gameplan that works for the players we have, not sure many any changes at this stage will accomplish much without new plan of attack

@Tim I don’t think Smith is too slow. He’s just fucking predictable. He at least has to be looking for some runs around the ruck to mix things up. Course I’ve been saying this for a while and we get the usual that he is best thing since sliced bread. He has regressed. Now I know his pack has not been good but then again he is not good at organizing them.

Smith, Mo’unga, Clarke, Goodhue, Ioane, Reece, Jordan
Christie, Perofeta, QT/Fainga’anuku

That’s might be right
QT ahead of LF because he’s better midfield cover. RI & WJ both cover the wing from the starting XV

Except Goodhue is still in NZ,Ennor went over as cover for Goodhue.

Thought he had left. Oh well, back to the same old well then of either QT or Havili.

Because he doesn't even try and run, defence rushes up both sides of the ruck. There's no variation.

@Tim I think there is zero chance Cane goes unless fozzie does...would.be tantamount to him admitting he got it wrong 3 years ago naming an injured player as his captain.

Sounds like Robinson and his selection of head coach

@Chris I wasn't sure on that...I had seen a social media post with him in Christchurch but the image stuff used at the airport of the ABs not wearing masks had goodhue in it...and right players in the image...musta been a camp they went to

Fozzie is fifty shades of desperate.
If I were him, I'd throw a Hail Mary and makes a raft of changes.
If they win, he can claim the changes were made, hope for the future etc.
Alternatively, he knows he is done, the players know he is done, and we get pumped.(again)Ooh can we have an alt. XV?
Bower can stay but how about some new blood: Tamati Williams (is he more a tighthead now?* Can still play both? Then maybe Williams to bench).
Sami T
Franks oh ok Newell
Locks ok? fly over Josh Dickson, sub Sam off about 50 min in..
Callum or Hosea, Ardie to 7, you can choose 6 but not Shannon please (is Tom Robinson still injured?)
Put Aaron on bench and choose Christie or... to start to make the old bugger compete for his place...
Richie, Perofeta as back up
Wings Reece Clarke or Big L again to see if he can repent
Midfield: hmm...the Umaga Jensens (well this is an alternative XV) or they can call backNepoNgani on bended knee and promise some free sushi
Fullback Zarn Sullivan
can have Jordan on bench...add in your fave unreliable yet exciting talent..I'd like to put Fakatava there but we still need Aaron ... -
