I think cane deserves a rest and have savea,Ioane and sotutu starting in the back row

Faketava is a hell of a player,everything he did was top class,all black in waiting that’s for sure

@taniwharugby well deserved in my opinion,been very consistent and think he offers more than George bridge

Wow. Big surprise for me is no hodgeman ,pita gus sawakula and no umaga jenson brothers .
Also I like the fact that Levi aumua is picked ,I’ve been very impressed with him and Ruben love is going to be some player

Got to say it’s the best I’ve seen josh goodhue play,he was into everything. Close behind I thought was Sam nock who has impressed this season
For otago I thought josh timu and umaga jenson both played very well and nareki looked very dangerous

Suprised no Kara pryer as I think he been playing really well

@victor-meldrew would like to see more of Peter umaga jenson aswell

@broughie said in Wales v All Blacks 30th Oct NH Tour:

@sparky But we need a 2nd five and Goodhue has played center mainly for the AB’s so who will he displace?. We need a genuine 2nd 5. Goodhue might not be any where near the player he was before. He was beaten for pace at center prior to his injury.

I know I’ve said this before but Peter umaga jenson should be in the squad in my opinion. Has the size and pace and runs nice lines

Akira has to start at 6 and whitelock back at lock and fainganuku out completely for Will Jordan and mounga for Barrett

@akan004 said in Countdown to RWC 2019 - ABs state of the play:

Who are our young and promising locks? There doesn't seem to be too many coming through. Was somewhat impressed with Louisi this year, especially the game he had against the Lions. Apart from him, can't think of any other young lock that has stood out this year.

I thought Louisi was very good actually! Much better than I thought he would be. Quentin strange looks a very good player also but could do with bulking up

@Jailbreak7
What’s the score please?

@ARHS I would like to see vikena picked as he has a lot of talent and is one for the future.

Wow. Big surprise for me is no hodgeman ,pita gus sawakula and no umaga jenson brothers .

@canefan bring back laumape

Would love to see tom Robinson in the squad.
Weber to replace fakatava I think and de groot for tuuinukuafe and also fletcher newell for ofa tuungafasi
I may be tempted aswell to get grace in there as well but not sure who to drop

I thought Stevenson,Delaney,love and howden did very well in this game. All look like quality players.

Akira has to start at 6 and whitelock back at lock and fainganuku out completely for Will Jordan and mounga for Barrett

I think same starting team will be named unless there is injury but bench will be a bit different. I think akira ioane will be on the bench if fit at least and can see fakatava also making the bench and probably tuivasa sheck instead of ennor

@taniwharugby well deserved in my opinion,been very consistent and think he offers more than George bridge

@Frank I more or less agree but think Cole’s will probably start
