I'm leaning towards Ofa, Colesy and Nepo to bring Bill home.
We should select to our strengths not react to theirs.
That is true in general, but the undue influence of scrum penalties late on can easily be worth 10 points, so simply cannot be disregarded.
Still waiting on those stats bro! The ones that prove the theory that Laulala gives away less penalties than any average prop?

@pakman I’m tempted to play Newell and Williams for the first 30 minutes, then to bring on De Groot and Lomax after the last 50 minutes to deal with Ox Nché when scrums are more likely.
Is that you Fozzie ?

Boks gone with a 7-1 split again. I hope it blows up in their face.
You mustn’t question Rassie the master. But yes, I hope his ‘genius’ is exposed on the biggest stage and he spends the next month making videos.

Wouldn't surprise me if the team is changed due to injury a couple of hours before kick off ...
That's what I think too. Just Mr Traffic Light twat doing what he does best.

@Dodge he’ll get away with it and be remembered as the greatest RWC mind ever. I’m sure he’ll accept the plaudits humbly 😂
To be fair, if they win you can’t say that they don’t fully deserve it and Rassie is a colossal part of that.

@Rancid-Schnitzel bending the laws like a good flanker. It is like he’s still playing 😂

I'm certain it's smoke and mirrors. It's just gamesmanship from burner phone gimp.

An 8/0 split?

Hopefully a couple of back injuries and we see how super sub the Ox goes against Jordan on the wing.
And here's me thinking you had Jordan as reserve THP ...

@pakman said in RWC Final: All Blacks v Springboks:
Boks bench means at 60 tight five will be same as that which chowed through Tamaiti, Sami and Fletch in scrums in Twickenham friendly.
Can't blame them for trying to replicate that.
That monstered a seven man scrum?

Same source I had for Telea's indiscretion said Mounga limped off at training.
Dammit. He's our reserve scrum-half.
