You wonder if he'd have been picked at 10? Foster changes his mind like a battleship turns, once you're in you're in, but if you're just getting going chopping and changing is his way. It's bizarre

Foster might still get a hostile crowd reception but selecting Mo'unga in a Chch test will certainly help his cause. I don't expect any changes to the starting XV.
I know a backline that would endear him to the Chch crowd….

@ACT-Crusader Would they even notice with the eye patch on?

Would love to see how Perofeta goes at 10 after Mounga has played the first 60 or so(assuming we can afford to bring him on)
Taranaki didn't bother starting him at 10 on the weekend. That would have been an ideal time to give him a run there.

It’s a tad concerning that his noggin is copping quite a few knocks lately.
Has it been confirmed that his noggin took the knock?
-
@ACT-Crusader Not as far as I have seen.

Think he'll be on the bench if BB is ruled out but Ritche may well play the full 80 depending on how the game pans out.

Just throwing it out there, but could we see the same starting backline as SA 2, but on the bench have a midfielder (QT or RTS) plus a winger (eg Reece).
Plan to play Mo’unga for 80 and better utilise the options on the bench. If he gets crook we run with either Jordie or Havili at 10.

@Victor-Meldrew There's also the option to bring Perofeta on at 15.

Imagine the shit Foster would cop if that didn't work out.
It will be interesting to see how/if they can give RTS playing time though. With 4 midfielders that aren't versatile the options are limited. They have obviously worked hard on upskilling QT to play 13 and currently he is the only real cover there except Ennor.
