    I see lots of people suggesting TJP. Has he ever played there? I can’t recall it. Can he goal kick?

    I can’t see them picking a guy who doesn’t kick goals unless Jordie is on the field as well. Way too risky.

    Of the 10’s left in NZ my choice would be Banks then Black.
    If you are covering it with an out of position player then it should be Jordie for his goal kicking.

    Did you see his last game? Wasn't even NPC level.

    Yes, and yes. Can't recall which game(s), though.

    @Stargazer I thought he played 30+ minutes at 10 against the Waratahs this year?

    Looked like he played the whole game with a broken leg and two broken arms.

    Yes, that's one example. In the 57th minute, James Marshall went off injured and Finlay Christie came on to play at halfback, allowing TJP to move to 10. James Marshall had come on for Fletcher Smith only 5 minutes earlier, so Smith couldn't come back on. Jordie stayed at fullback, but did all the goalkicking in that game (right from the start).

    @Stargazer was pretty notable that TJ didn’t look comfortable at ten, so not sure he can pull a Weepu.

    I can’t seem them going into a World Cup with only two tens. Makes the RC a bit more in, surely they have to try a third option out of TJ, Jordie, Crotty, Black, Hunt or Ioane.

    Just so they know?

    We wouldn't be in this situation if they hadn't insisted on making a sow's ear out of a silk purse.

    I expect Sopoaga would have stayed had he believed he was second/ third choice five eighth for the All Blacks.

    He’s not available, so who’s next?

    @Kirwan playing backup to a young upstart from Canterbury, how about those parallels...

    Kills two birds with one stone.

    The cup is South Africa's to lose.
