Springboks v All Blacks 2

Dont like the Kriel selection or seeing Wiese still there (though he had a good game last week) otherwise good.
Think Marx should have got another start, but hell probably get 45 minutes so it should be fine.

Marx is a mistake.

@SidBarret I mentioned the importance of our bomb squad. That frontrow is stronger then the starting one. Kriel the only worry specially with the 6/2 bench.
Based on Saturday, with different ref scrums aren’t going to be critical. But Marx’s interventions buggered AB momentum.
I’d rather have him come on at start than risk ABs finally starting alright and Boks chasing game.

Will Jordan is in doubt for the All Blacks second test against the Springboks at Ellis Park this weekend due to a stomach bug.
Stomach bug strikes: All Blacks star in doubt for Boks rematch
He was the leading candidate to start at fullback with Jordie Barrett also in doubt.
Potentially 3 fullbacks down, JB, BB (they should rest him), WJ, does DH have a chance?

@nostrildamus Suzies granddaughter involved by any chance?

If they're all ruled out, I think it will be this:
10 Mo'unga, 15 Perofeta, 23 Havili

Thanks! I hope Perofeta is robust enough. I'd have put Zarn Sullivan on the plane to start with (although maybe the logistics were impossible) but I'm no selector

@Duluth I got as far as putting in the right steps in preparation. They don't seem to be the right steps though eh, despite how stoked he is with the off pitch performance. Surely that has to become clear?
I didn't follow the logic at the end of his interview (5:37 on). If you follow the process (and they did, according to him, with really well-structured training camps and the "focus to improve") you get the outcome that you are after...but they didn't.

Straight question: who of squad is actually unavailable?
BBBR definitely
Nepo/Ofa/Jack probably
Jordie possibly
BB/WJ maybe?
Others?
Would be good if Allblacks.com made that clear?

They had press releases for those guys that didn't travel and those that are there but are under an injury cloud they will most likely have fitness tests later in the week.
