I really want to see some angry ABs out there this week.
Within reason. I don't want to see more cards.

Lukhan Salakaia-Loto has been given the job of Eden Park enforcer after being named to make his first start for the Wallabies this year against the All Blacks on Saturday.
The call-up for the big Queensland lock came as Wallabies coach Joe Schmidt also turned to a new starting partnership in the halves for the opening Bledisloe Cup clash, with Tate McDermott and James O’Connor trusted to run the show for Australia at the intimidating Auckland venue.

BB will probably look ok against a passive Wallaby defence, as will a few others. This test will paper over the cracks and will tell us very little.
Roigard back is a huge boost for this side. I reckon he should just skip Beauden altogether when we attack.

the Hurricanes site says he is a 9/10 but he has not played 10 at a high level has he?

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 came on late out of position and replaced a guy who missed two tackles in one movement that led to the Boks set play and try that set them on their run.
It wasn't a good night at the office, but all of the replacements who came on at that time were average, as were the majority of the rest of the other players in that time.
So not sure how he is any luckier than any other player.

Well, he's unlucky that there is an undroppable Barrett in the position he is best suited to.
Not quite sure how a guy who broke the line and scored a terrific individual try in the previous Springbok match is "lucky" to be there.

I find stats odd when Potbelly can commit so many tacklers, evade so many tacklers....yet is far from dominant and is mostly behind the gainline?

Is Lakai selection more of a reaction to our implosion in the final 20 when the bench guys came on or has he just not been 100% fit until now?
I just don't understand why Kirifi was getting picked over him for so long when Lakai's ceiling is higher, he's 22 vs Kirifi 28 and he's 110kg vs Kirifi 103kg.

I’ve been saying this since Lakai became available. He’s just so much more suited to test rugby.

@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
Suaali’i is very poor defensively and could have kittens trying to defend LF.
Procter adds nothing on attack or defence.@Chris said in All Blacks vs Wallabies Bledisloe I:

Maybe let’s give Proctor some ball to play with, you know instead of kicking the ball away at 9/10 or crashing the ball up at 12 in almost every play that we do. I’d like the ABs to play with width, they looked so good when they did that in the first 15 mins or so of the last test.
In the first 15 mins Proctor had three solid touches, one underneath his own sticks to put Carter away when Beauden decided to run it. He’s certainly capable, everyone just needs to do their fking job to a high standard, instead of looking like a bunch of clowns who don’t know what the game plan is.

Well of course that depends on the possession stats how many tackles per 80 min you can make.
And how the opposition uses possession. -

Suaali’i is very poor defensively and could have kittens trying to defend LF.
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'
Let’s see how Procter handles Suaali’i it maybe carnage.
Maybe it was miss communication between LF and French speaking players around him with Toulon.Saying Proctor has nothing on attack or defence is garbage. We know what he’s capable of because we’ve seen it for so long. The game plan is garbage and it’s completely fucked his confidence. That’s on the coaches in my view.
Maybe let’s give Proctor some ball to play with, you know instead of kicking the ball away at 9/10 or crashing the ball up at 12 in almost every play that we do. I’d like the ABs to play with width, they looked so good when they did that in the first 15 mins or so of the last test.
In the first 15 mins Proctor had three solid touches, one underneath his own sticks to put Carter away when Beauden decided to run it. He’s certainly capable, everyone just needs to do their fking job to a high standard, instead of looking like a bunch of clowns who don’t know what the game plan is.
We give him the ball and gives away points through and intercept.

Those stats also show Ennor is the best defensive centre by a long way.I think he's a very good defender but its not really clear that he's the best. Both Ennor and ALB didn't make a lot of tackles over the season.
In terms of completed tackles per 80 minutes Ennor is ranked 18 out of 23.
Well of course that depends on the possession stats how many tackles per 80 min you can make.
And how the opposition uses possession.@Chris said in All Blacks vs Wallabies Bledisloe I:
