Jordie brings back a few memories of Toeava, 
maligned but the coaches seem to like him .
His versatility could come in handy in a WC , I can remember toeava doing a similar thing in 11, think he played fb, wing and midfield in pool games, allowed us to rest players with niggles.
Samoa ( that’s not happening), then wales for me
Always difficult to pick future teams, form fluctuations, and as we see so often in Nz , freak talent emerges from nowhere and we ( or I do based overseas ) think where did this guy come from.
I’d be inclined to leave goodhue at 13, agree with the thoughts, natural 13s are difficult to find .
I remember the coaches saying, rightly or wrongly they thought of Charles as a left winger , so he wasn’t going to displace Jules ( at the time )
And nms was carving it up on the right when given an opportunity. I thought he and bender on the right as a 1-2 punch worked well

Aussies are taking All Blacks out further away from the ball than that.
Shit, shit call. No way that’s a yellow.
You nearly had an upvote fir the first para. Lost it for the second. Definite yellow.
That was my thoughts too, Aussies should’ve been penalised a few times for doing it, but they weren’t as blatantly stupid about it .
Interesting comments by Hansen on coles , reading between the lines,I’m guessing there was a premeditated plan to Make life difficult for the halfback, but he took it too far . And he will deal with it behind closed doors.

Crotty and SBW are finished after the cup. Laumape will have chance to stake his claim
Nonu missed the 2007 World Cup squad , laumape is young enough to go again .
So what you're saying is, if Laumape misses out we lose this world cup?
But win the next two?
He would have needed to play and lose in 2015 though...
I think he was still playing for the Warriors then, does that count?
They lost plenty so it probably does , was he wearing mascara?
