If Beaudy is out, I wonder if they will bring in another option like Reihana?

Would love to see it for the RC.

Bit of a stitch up for Papali'i. His only opportunity comes as a blindside/lock cover. Be interesting to see if the French stack their bench with experienced players again.
Or we go old school and he doesn’t get a run at all or comes on with 3 minutes left on the clock.
A coaching plan I like to call "The Plummer".

Yeah but if another lock gets injured and then two props and another loose forward get injured we're fucked aren't we, it'll be Tupaea.
These selections are ridiculous!

A pretty "B" looking starting XV.
If we were playing a RWC knock out match tomorrow and everyone was fit and in form, I think we'd field the below - with a caveat that I'm not entirely sure about how they'd deploy the locks/loosies. "A team" members in this current team bolded.
Williams, Taylor, Lomax, Barrett, Vai'i, Finau(??), Savea, Sititi, Roigard, Mo'unga, Clarke, JBarrett, Ioane, Reece, Jordan.

If you're going to include Mo'unga then surely you include Frizzell?

Love definitely has confidence, hopefully he can show that on Saturday night.
