All Blacks v Wallabies at Eden Park.

Are the odds that surprising though ? If the ABs win will a single person on here be in the least bit surprised ?
Conversely if the Wallabies do somehow snatch one then every prick on here would have been happy to chuck a cheeky 50 bucka on that result.

Aussies have no chance. I wouldn't pick one Wallaby in a combined ANZAC team.....

ordinarily this post would be taking the piss
but
realistically, right now, if you were picking on form, who would you take from the Wallabies in an ANZAC XXIII? Maybe Kerevi in the 23 jersey? One of the opensides if Cane isn't fit? I couldn't think of any others.

Surely the 2015 World Rugby Coach of the Year would get a look in

@mariner4life i'd take genia over perenara's last game, but not the one before that. i'd take pocock over savea or todd without a doubt. moore is better than our bench hookers. folau would be tempting still, but not on form, more on how he'd go with the rest of our team around him.

Genia's not playing. There goes any chance that Australia had..

Don't you want to attack? I'd take Pocock over Todd (after watching him get bossed against South Africa) but what Ardie adds, Pocock can't.
moore is better than our bench hookers. folau would be tempting still, but not on form, more on how he'd go with the rest of our team around him.
Moore is badly out of form too. I don't know if he's just tired, or tired of being captain but currently, Codie Taylor is better.
-
Moore has been terrible for 2 years. Pocock is a 1 trick pony, if cane is fit i would take his tackling and stronger carrying
-
@antipodean i thought todd was pretty good against SA to be honest mate, but with pocock getting turnover ball for our backs there would be a whole shitload of attacking going on.
moore is nowhere near his best, but i'd still take him on the bench over anyone we've got at the moment. -
But Pocock would be shirking the other duties we expect of Cane, Todd and Ardie while tracking around looking for turnover opportunities and getting in the way of the backs. He also hasn't displayed the handling skills we expect from our players.
-
I'd be taking Parsons ahead of Moore, given the lack of form Moore has been in.
Moody and Crockett ahead of their looseheads.
Coles in. TPN has been pretty good but I believe he's unavailable, so Taylor gets the bench spot.
Franks and Faumuina as tightheads.
Whitelock and Retallick, and the AB starting backrow.
On the bench I'd go Tuipoluto and Hooper.
TJP and Barrett. Cruden is now available so he gets the bench. Tough call for the reserve halfback given form of either TKB, Phipps hasn't been much to ring home about.
AB midfield and AB back three. Folau is struggling. I like Kerevi off the bench too, but Fekitoa would be just as good in that role as well.

Kind of worries me as I think Aussie are getting better but I can't think of too many ...
- Genia is out but would he get bench halfback over TKB?
- Moore in years gone by. Personally I think TPN is a better 2 and may get the reserve hooker role in a combined team
- Hoopah back up 7 if Cane is injured?
- Folau in previous years as back up outside back? Not so sure this year ...
Feeling very 2003 ... 😯
-
I dont know if Folau is struggling or if Cheika doesn't know how to unleash him.
NB read that Cane is hopeful but probably 40:60.
