For me Quinn Tupaea is also lucky. He showed a lot of promise during Super Rugby but he was disappointing in this RC especially in the last game.
He was one of the players walking in the last 15 minutes.
-
Good to have Clarke, Roigard and Tuipulotu back.
-
great additions, BB still remains though, so I remain nervous

Our most important Allblack is back.
All aboard the Cam Wagon………choo choo
I haven’t been this excited for a player being named in the AB side since July 2015, when Charlie Ngatai’s name was read out by Steve Hansen

@brodean just to bang the drum again, but at super Quinn wasn't playing outside BB...last year when Lam was looking a good prospect too, he also wasn't...but this year he has fallen away...
It seems like you are saying Lam had fallen away in SRP this but he was arguably the Blue's best player this year along with Dalton Papali'i. Lam dominated carry impact stats for SRP.

@ShaquilleOatmeal Hey I didn't say i was happy with the new captain but I am happy if the SB reign is finished.
-
Deckchairs successfully shuffled.
-
That said
Carn the lads!!! I want a show!
-
I really want to see some angry ABs out there this week.

Same old shit selections win this one then get smoked in Perth.
Pattern remains the same so no chance of progression.I probably missed any suggestion you made prior to (all the conjecture just became white noise). But what would be your changes?

I would be more radical
D Mac to first five,Love to the bench BB gone,
LF to centre someone who can bend the line.
Especiallyas Suaali’i is not a great defender.
Williams would start Norris on the bench another ball runner.
And play more direct with those changes. -
@Chris mate did you see LF defense stats etc in club rugby in France.. He was worst centre over the season in top 14, by quite a bit. The couple of games I saw him play, he made a few breaks and looked great on attack but abysmal on defense, in that he seemed to not even attempt tackles at time. Reckon JAS would have fun running in his channel

Those stats also show Ennor is the best defensive centre by a long way.

Suaali’i is very poor defensively and could have kittens trying to defend LF.
Procter adds nothing on attack or defence. -

Procter adds nothing on attack or defence.Yep, but LF is poor on defense and so would be doing same surely. Games I saw him play weren't so much he couldn't tackle, but more he seemed not to attempt them at times. he may of been confused with defsive set up team used or something, and hope they working on it'

Not on the LF wagon (but not delighted with our options)
And Norris is injured.
