    Ethan de Groot, Codie Taylor, Tyrel Lomax, Scott Barrett (c), Tupou Vaa’i, Ethan Blackadder, Dalton Papali'i, Wallace Sititi, Cortez Ratima, Harry Plummer, Caleb Clarke, Anton Lienert-Brown, Rieko Ioane, Will Jordan, Beauden Barrett

    Reserves: Asafo Aumua, Tamaiti Williams, Pasilio Tosi, Patrick Tuipulotu, Ardie Savea, Noah Hotham, Damian McKenzie, Proctor

    Risk at 12, with Plummer covering (or Ardie!) but a) it's only OZ and b) Havili is a busted flush - move the fuck on

    @Kirwan Of the 23 there are seven I would happily never see in an AB side again and another I would drop

    Time for a 1974 style clean-out (15 debutants in a squad of 25)?

    No time for sentimentality when our form is bad, so;

    Cane
    Perenara
    Reece
    Aumua
    Jacobsen
    Havili
    Barrett B

    Now saying I'd be happy not seeing them in Black again isn't quite the same as advocating none of them should play this weekend. That would be too disruptive, but I wouldn't be taking any of them to the NH. They're either past it or haven't got it. Patrick T fits those criteria too in an ideal world.

    TJ and BB starting just makes me weep, I'd prefer Hotham and Plummer as at least then it would show an intent to try and build something for the future. The coaching pharse I believe is "wasting reps" and this is a complete waste.

    All I will say is, thanks to terrible squad selections and Crusader bias, the 23 we are putting out this year is nowhere near as strong as it could be

    Agree Havili shouldn’t be there but isn’t there more of a Chiefs bias in that 23?

    Wouldn’t think it is a dead rubber as far as the Wallabies are concerned either - they must be pretty keen to improve their world ranking and what better way to do that than against ABs away from home

    I don't mind that team but have to question the continued selection of Lolesio. Best of a bad bunch I guess, but I'm not convinced even that is true

    Jeez management a lot more conservative than I thought they would be.
    Maybe hoping on high emotion as a send off for the seniors.
    Disappointed Plummer, Darry, Love, Proctor, Paps haven't been given much of a run this year.
    Coulda, shoulda used the second half sub system better. Putting someone on for 5 minutes is fruitless

    Wallabies changes:
    9 Gordon (White dropped*)
    11 Pietsch (Marika injured)

    17 Kailea (Slipper dropped*)
    22 Donaldson (Lynagh dropped*)
    23 Flook (Pietsch promoted)

    *I'm guessing they're dropped.

    Razor, for all his talk, is frozen in the spotlight and unable to think beyond 'not losing'

    Yeah, seems that way.
    Far less bold than I thought he'd be.

    The saving grace is we have a tight 5 of some ability.

    The same thing I said before last weeks match applies to this one

    I expect NZ to win by 30. Pass/fail mark is ~20 points

    Finau wasn't poor. He was good enough for us to win.

    McCaw would seem to be the perfect ex-player to present Cane's 100th test cap.
