    For this match - a literal one-off - like a World Cup Final - no competition points at stake, no bonus points on offer - drop goals (plural) surely have to be a consideration.

      Conor Murray has once more distanced himself from the chasing pack as the world’s finest nine

      utter bullshit

      Agreed. He was outplayed by Smith in the second test.

      But Smith isn't Irish.

      I've enjoyed watching some of the youtube content from the42 but it's obviously very Irish-centric.

        When Payne said pre-tour he wanted to provide a headache for the selectors, this probably wasn't what he had in mind...

              He didn't mention that bit , my guess would be dagg moving back to 14 for less disruption , which would be naholo gone I would think .

                @taniwharugby He also mentioned that Julian Savea could be back in and the midfield will be ALB/Laumape.

                  @antipodean Clive Woodward reckons subbing Smith was the turning point for us in the 2nd test, this along with subbing Kaino off were the bits he felt Hansen & Co got wrong.

                  He's right. Smith's kicking and the way he was getting our under-manned pack around the park was great - especially on a night where Barrett was not going as well as he could.

                  TJ came on, started throwing bad passes to our forwards, who then got smashed backwards, we lost shape, lost territory and - as noted earlier - he messed up defensively.

                    @junior yep, although easy call to make with hindsight, given the impact TJ usually makes and the form he has been in.

                      “There’s been a bit of edge there,” said Kaino, who is so worked up that he had to be told to cool it in the team’s training session on Tuesday morning.

                      Assume SBW was on the receiveing end of a lot of Kaino's "anger".

                            I used to go to the same gym as Piri and Neemia. It was definitely no surprise that they were two players who would always struggle with fitness. Was always frustrating watching them muck around, and to a certain extent, waste some of the talent that they had.

                            Was a stark contrast between those two and Tana and Rodders.

                                        Murray Kinsella from the visiting press is also saying Jordie will be picked at 15.
