Some exciting match ups in this game
Ofa vs Newell
Papalii vs Blackadder
Sotutu vs Lio Willie
Funaki vs Hotham
Tele'a vs Reece (even though both players spend a lot of time off their wing)Jeepers, he’s actually getting on the field ????
Wait till he actually makes it over the chalk before believing it.
The man, the myth, the legend; rivalled only by Charlie Ngatai for stocks rising when not playing.

Tele'a vs Reece (even though both players spend a lot of time off their wing)Better to just wait until the crusaders run out on to the field, changes before game time every week this season if feels like. Makes you wonder if they are naming 50/50 players in hope they can be fit.

@Landers92 Seems that way, about 3 last week pulled up lame in GameDay and it's happened throughout the year, and by what @Chris has been saying, half the guys in doubt haven't trained this week.
Do they name them to fool the opposition into preparing for them?

This is one of the consequences of naming all teams on Wed. If the team plays on Sat you will be having a training on Thu too.

I think they are just hoping people recover during the week.
They haven't been keeping secrets.. Todd was talking yesterday about who hadn't been training etc
It suggests they don't rate the next options though

No other teams have really had this issue, just the crusaders so naming it a day earlier doesn’t really make a difference imo. Just the Crusaders being hopeful and playing mind games like African Monkey said above.

@Bovidae that try, Carlos walking it to the far post and then kicking the conversion is one of the greatest rugby things I've witnessed.

@antipodean And it's been shown on TV this week too.

Don't forget the 'up yours' to the crowd after nailing the conversion.

Which took away their losing bonus point...

It's perfect that TJ was commentating that try as well.
