TKB - Give him one last game eh?
Sopoaga
Havili.All this depending on Ioane being available. If he's not I'd like to see things mixed up a bit in the wings. Probably, just stick Tamanivalu on Left wing and kept Naholo on right TBH
-
@westcoastie I think Hansen said TKB had played his last one barring injury.
-
@act-crusader naw, I missed that. Thats a shame.

After watching the Scot game, I’m feeling much better - if we are accurate in our small skills and decision making, we’ll win going away from them. If we aren’t, it’ll be close and we may lose. It’s amazing how we’ve had players who could consistently make the right decision (such as when to pass - or not) for so long that now it’s hard to see less experienced guys fuck it up.

Na seriously.
If we’re off our game which is highly likely going on recent form, all Wales need to do is to hold a few more passes than scotland did, get a bit of luck here and there and they’re in with a pretty good chance.

if there was a ever an opportunity to beat us , its probably now ,
Whether Wales is good enough to take advantage of that is another question , sounds like you dont think they are ,which is fair enough ,
But we are looking beatable right now

It will be interesting to compare the teams from the Lions 1st test to the team they roll out vs Wales. Not many would have predicted such a high injury toll.
I really think this will be a tight game and I am looking forward to the challenge. I actually think all of these challenges will help us in the long run. Some players suit test rugby and some don't, this tour sure is helping the coaches see who is stepping up.

You're certainly looking beatable but realistically only England are good enough to do it.
We can't beat an egg.

So that's now our 'best' front row out, our one of our starting locks out, one of our back up locks out, our best 6 still up in the air.
Our best back 3 out as well...all contributing factors in how average we are looking at the moment.
