Sounds like Jacobson can pack his French dictionary.
Luc Jacobin?

Hat off to Foster and co, win or lose, and apart from 9 (holds head in hands) that is an exciting and promising side. Old heads, some exciting new talent. Colour me impressed.

@Bovidae said in All Blacks v Australia - Bledisloe II:
@ACT-Crusader It's certainly the biggest game Ennor has started in. So far his other test starts have been USA, Italy and Japan. As I have said, he could play the role as the direct midfield runner à la JB. He could swap around with ALB depending on the move called.
Ennor has been around long enough to know the patterns etc and with ALB's experience should do fine. This could become the 2nd starting midfield option after JB/RI.

Maybe Christie is playing for his WC spot,Weber may still be in the picture.
You could be right. but think Christie is maybe locked in as a finishing 9 and they are seeing how he goes as a starting 9. Wouldn't be surprised to see Roigard starting at Twickenham if Christie doesn't shine.

Their starting backs (and all their backs) must have more tests than ours.
