Rennie will be doing everything he can to limit damage
I think he'll be trying for the win. Big runners trying to get behind us, quick cleans and moving the ball against the direction of a scrambling defence.
The switch in five-eighth will be for better decision making,
They'll also be acutely aware that if our pace of ball is disrupted, there goes our attack.

@antipodean he has to be doesn't he, several teams have shown we are beatable over the last few years

I’ve got a lot of time for Wright. If given space and playing 14 he’s creative and can finish.
Talented? Yes.
Brain the size of a pea? Yes.
Temperament of a teenage bully? Most definitely.Passed the two criteria for a Fern poster already.

Statistics eh. Saying NZ and Australia have drawn the same number of games. Pffft. Whatever.

They would have to take some confidence in Argentina beating us , only a few weeks ago as well

some hyperbolic shit on this thread

i also love that that specific debate includes a player thats not actually available due to injury
And one that retired half a decade ago.

@KiwiMurph said in Bledisloe 1:
I'm interested to see how McLeod's defence holds up.
Presumably a high 'ball in play' game under the roof. I have the feeling the defence will be stretched after playing confrontational/compact teams like the Boks and Argie.
Although that style is probably closer to super rugby than what we saw vs Irish, Boks and Argies.

Don't forget to bring up Kaino's name half a dozen times.

“He’s no Jerry Collins, but who is” usually has made the discussion by now.

Brodie speaks wonderfully well in these pressers. His deep knowledge of the game really comes through.

Hmmm. I see the akira is awesome posts again. Bloody well show us please akira with a dominant display off the bench rather than an ok-ish one.
TBF there’s only one poster dying on that hill.
He’s a good player no doubt but the fact is that it’s not just Foster but Ryan as well that can see that he doesn’t match the desire for a straight running charger. They want someone that tackles with their shoulder more than their arms and drives with their legs in contact rather than trying to step.
No, just one that can be bothered arguing with the usual suspects about it.
Everything you wrote up there describes Akira's game. FFS.
We must have our players mixed up then 😀
No, just that you are pretty wrong (as usual) about how he plays.
OK thanks. I'll let Jase Ryan know as well.
The selectors have been really clear about the style and attributes they want from their 6 and by their actions they agree with me. You seem to be the only one that sees Akira differently.
As I have said numerous times, he is a good player. Just plays differently to what they want.In the first 50.
