Lester to the wing, Jordan to fullback, DMac to the bench and Roigard to the bench.
Beauden has to go for me in the big games. Foster won’t have the balls though.
Can't do any worse, I can't see us winning with Foz's first pick team
@canefan yeah we need x-factor. It’s not a coincidence that the guys I’ve mentioned were the best players in Super aswell. We need to run teams off their feet instead of playing into the hands of other teams by kicking.

@Canes4life LF would certainly do justice on one wing

Obviously we have parochial biases on the forum but based on the last 4 years do people want to continue to make a case for the likes of Clarke? Christie? Beaudy, ALB, Havili, Vaii?
Leicester, Roigard, DMAC should be in every squad going forward and should Clarke ever pull his hammy id be getting Finau on the phone. Telea, Jordan , Leicester are nailed on in back 3 (presuming Beaudy is incumbent at 15).
I think most of us know what is what at this stage.
Im both positive and negative about the Allblacks concurrently.
I think the cattle are there, but not sure if they will be picked.
The World Cup is there to be won. We can do it. But we are our own worst enemies right now.

EdG was a red. However due to the newness and inconsistency of the application of this rule it would be unfair for a ruling to have an impact outside of the pools
The newness? Well it wasn’t a red last night but it is today so I suppose that is fairly new!
-
I would go SB/SW first half. SB/BR second. Roll the dice. It's got to the point where I'd go Roigard- DMac combo on at 50 minutes. No mucking about.

At least it would force opposition teams to start their scouting again

The majority of posters would agree with you there

I think we have some of the right cattle, however who out of the current squad would you say are playing their best rugby? Roigard? Anyone else? That to me is a sign of poor coaching.

A starting backline of AS, RM, LF, JB, RI, WJ, BB
Means we could have 6-2 split on bench with CR and DM...although the way our pack is going...

No Telea? I'm going all To Dare is to Do,
Smith, LF, RM (I'm tempted by DMac for the way he plays), JB, RI, Telea, Jordan. We ain't winning squat with BB at the back, so let's go

Yeah LF on the bench. No point having a 6-2 bench as our forwards aren't good enough. We've lost both our top props, that's enough to finish off what tiny hope we had

No ten as well mate. Fozz wants you in his team!

Kepu talks well. Roigard to start, was he makes the opposition have to think. Must be after his bed time tho

That is the boss move. Throw in a kid with obvious talent who the opposition teams have barely seen

@taniwharugby Where’s RM?
@His-Bobness he's in my edited post...

@ploughboy yep one wing turns slower than the titanic bearing down on an iceberg and another who trips over his own shadow

If EDG is going to miss the playoffs, someone needs to trip up Clarke at the hotel breakfast bar, spraining his ankle and opening the door to a Joe Moody call-up

Just play him against Uruguay and tell him to sidestep....
