Who's Bell?
George Bell hooker from Canterbury (Asafo Aumua is also injured). Called up with Finau and Weber to help train with ABs in the leadup to World Cup.

Fozzie's woken up to his shortcomings!
If he was trolling us he would've called up Stevenson!

@Bones said in All Blacks vs Springboks - Twickenham:
@Chris-B he definitely reads the fern. The ultimate troll wouldn't call up Stevenson in a case of double bluff.
You're only hurting yourself Ian.
The ultimate troll would be to call up the injured Mitch Hunt and justify it by saying he also covers fullback!

Hookers - they’re now content with playing two of the frontline hookers
Props - start Newell and one other.
Lock - start Lord with one of Scooter or Whitelock. Have Vaa’i on the bench.
Loosies - Finau, Cane, Savea. Papali’i on the bench.
Halfback - if Aaron Smith isn’t in cotton wool… Roigard or Christie to start. Weber on the bench.

How bad is Bell’s injury? Who would be 4th choice Hooker now?
Ricky Riccitelli & Tyrone Thompson were the other hookers in the AB xv
Sheesh, where’s the barrel to be scraped…
-
We were already there with Bell. I don’t think he’s ready yet

@scribe said in All Blacks vs Springboks - Twickenham:
Thompson played well tonight when he came on for The Bay. I think he’s got the goods but probably too early for him.
If he's next available he's next available.
Who else is "more ready" than the next best available dude?
