          I'd like to see that combo tried in one of these 2 tests.

          What is the update on Laulala's paternal leave?

            @ACT-Crusader I find it disconcerting when you post an actual team.

            Swap out Frizell for Akira, swap ALB and Goodhue around and you've got my team.

                  I think they need to give the 12-Goodhue 13-ALB another good run.

                  Don’t mind the Akira for Frizell call given Frizell got the first 3 Bledisloe tests.

                  Given Savea got a week off in Bled 3, I think he will start.

                    Seems strange to go back to the top team - they should switch out two/three players to see what they can do - I’d give Akira and Jordan starts with Ardie and Roane off the bench.

                      That's what should have happened last week. It just feels like they don't know what the top team is. Not the first time this has happened.

                      R and R didn't work for Ted either, if that is the excuse.

                        given this would appear to be what they see as thier preferred pairing.

                        Was interesting to note a number of times Laumape & ALB were set either on either side of the ruck (attack and defence) or Laumape outside ALB a few times too.

                          Agreed. I understand the methodology applied for Sydney - they wanted to win the Bledisloe so their best possible team took the field. The problem with introducing guys/ resting others is there were too many changes for Brisbane and some of the experienced heads didn't have their best outings.

                          The remainder of the TN should have minimal changes but allow debutantes to get quality time on the field.

                              Agree with that - put in a helluva shift. Backrow of Akira, Savea, Sotutu.

                              Weber to get 20 minutes if any of you are serious about replacing TJP.

                                Anyone in Sydney going along? I'm considering getting a cheap seat just for the spectacle.

                                    If Ofa were suspended for a week, Is Nepo back? If not who would be first TH cab off rank in Mitre 10? Know Bower and Karl can play there but think I'd prefer a specialist.

                                      Can't argue with that. I am guessing Fozzie still thinks Jordie is his first choice wing but he is due for a rest anyway.

                                          We also haven't had an update on Jordan. But if he failed his HIA he won't be available for selection in this game.

                                            Given his history they should be extra cautious. He shouldn't play again until Super Rugby

                                              I don't think he'll be back - but the return to play protocols can be satisfied in a week I thought? I have memories of folk going off for HIA, but then being back the week after.

                                              That said, I'm with @Duluth, think he should take the time out and come back at Super next year

                                                @nzzp yeah I think they can fail an HIA in game but pass the rest during the week and be selected to play, similarly there have been ones passed in-game but failed the subsequent follow ups (delayed obviously)

                                                  i cant imagine how hard it is being a professional rugby player in nz at the moment, your a wing with AB's aspirations so you ask your coach to keep referring to you as a fullback just so fozzie will notice you

                                                              EDIT: only thing it probably lacks is closer rail transport - they've got buses running right past. It is only 1.3km from the nearest train tho.

                                                              That's a deliberate ploy to keep lazy fat fuckers away so they can fit more seats in 😉

                                                              Also true!

                                                              The best thing Parramatta could have done was run a ring service light rail up that street to the stadium, then turn down into North Parramatta and back over the river.
