What state are LF and Jordan in?
I would think that Jordan is available as Chch to Auckland isn't a long distance flight.
You'd want your best scrummaging props for this game.
Unless Moody and Newell are fully fit, donāt expect prop changes for this one.
Thought it was really odd how the Comms were trying to suggest the bench props against Argentina were the actual starting props and EdG, TL were lucky to get a start.
Who were your comms? TJ and Marshall? Or random international peeps?
I think it was TJ who said something saying those lines, guy is so past his best before is not funny. During the line ups bit at the start, maybe, Marshall does the backs

@Bovidae said in All Blacks Vs Springboks RC Week 2:
I read that the ABs and Argentineans shared a charter flight, which was scheduled to arrive in Auckland this afternoon. Therefore they should get at least another day of preparation.
Man, I would love to hear that both teams got in the beers for 15 hours together and rolled off at the other end.
Professionalism sucks sometimes

If Iām selecting, Iām probably starting RM for DM, given that this is 90% likely to be my 10 for the business end of the season. Iām keeping 12/13, but Iām happy to switch CC for LF and also Narawa for Jordan/SS if fit.
Everyone here seems to be on board with Narawa having a blinder last week, but I canāt say I was that impressed. He looked solid, and it was a nice finish for his try, but he didnāt look super-explosive to me, it was hardly shades of Joe Rok or Rupeni - he didnāt gas anyone or do anything stupendous. High bar Iām setting I know, but I just didnāt see anything that would make me think he has leapfrogged any of the other more established guys
I thought BB did enough to cement his spot for another week too, heāll get the same favourite treatment as RM this year I reckon
Agree with those wanting Roigard in for Christie, and Iād also like Finau to start.
Cane and Savea are rusted on.
And how good is it that I actually donāt give a fuck which of the 4 (yeah, thatās 4 bitches!) locks they select, nor which front row- it feels like we actually have real depth there right now.

@Bones said in All Blacks Vs Springboks RC Week 2:
@voodoo which ones are your 4 though?
You have more than 4?
Iām ditching Vaaāi for Lord based on that debut performance and basically being a huge bitch. Combined with the incumbents and the unicorn that is Scott Barrett, itās basically the best locking foursome in the history of the gameā¦

Just realised Iām taking utter rubbish (again) - I thought youse were discussing the comms talking about the āskip passā that missed Clarke that led to the try
Iāll just keep quiet over here

@Bones said in All Blacks Vs Springboks RC Week 2:
@voodoo You answered correctly.
Is there a prize?
There is! But you have to wait until next year when proper selectors don't think Vaai is a top lock.

@nostrildamus said in All Blacks Vs Springboks RC Week 2:
Narawa at 14 played really well. 11 (CC) was ok but didn't have the work rate and defensive efficiency of debutant Narawa.
Agree how well Narawa went, still suspect he will get week off if Jordan fit, just to let him absorb it all etc.
A Narawa and at 15 Jordan (or Stevenson!)* and Telea outside 3 excites me! Don't mind big L either.
*Also a Zarn Sullivan fan.
