As far as Beale, you wonder if he’s coming back as he perceives there’s a weakness at 15. Or if he’s been encouraged to return by Rennie. Either way, I think he’ll be in the 36. The 23? Not so sure

Totally agree. Having him play that role buys time for the 5/8th. If he gets the ball he’s a handful. if not, the defence is wary of the threat and hang back that split second to make sure.

Think you could shoehorn jack Whetton in?

This change for the highlanders could hurt us

Wasted the advantage with a slow start to the second half

They’re (Stan) putting on content (top tries/top goals type stuff) to maybe fill spots in the coverage that’s NZ specific

Looking good so far. Can’t have another second half fade. We have 10 or so left of 15-14 and a pretty strong bench which should help

See ya

stoltz injured?

And I’m allowed to dislike their comments. If people disagreeing wasn’t allowed this site would close too

People are projecting a dislike for him on things in the past that were out of his control. Should he not have taken his Wallaby jersey? In the same situation, none of us would turn down that opportunity. I’m not saying he should or should not be in the wallaby framework, Let’s see how he goes.

Hate the rolling maul. But if they can score from the initial drive, I reckon it counts

Let’s not go there. Been done to death.

I agree with that. It would depend on the sub split I guess, if it’s 6/2 you have the luxury of picking more specialists on the bench. 5/3 would require a bit more adaptability, which might help him. He’s not taking a starting spot from Valetini, Leota, Swinton, et al. But I see him doing a...

I’d image they’d look at Holloway as a bench option lock/6,8. Or a starting lock who could move to 6. Personally I like the first option as he can then be used as tactical or injury replacement rather than having a specialist lock on the bench. Other posters are correct that at the beginning of...

That’s the team that has been posted on social media.

No Donaldson either.

He’s got work to do

Having been at the game, it takes massive balls (or a suicidal streak) to sledge an islander given the amount of fans at the ground with a similar heritage to Kirifi. And of course the fact there were a lot of Islanders in the crowd (or if there weren’t any) shouldn’t be a reason for people not...

Or bench lock, 6, 8?
