Doran's Wednesday leak has Koroibete and Lynagh dropped from the 23, with Peitsch to the wing and Donaldson back.

Gosh Yoda, I always thought you should have been a selector.I’d play Tate at Prop and bring Tupou into 10 actually. Then move McReight to 15 and Wright to 7. Probably even bring Schmidt onto the wing for Marika. White to coach. That’s about it.
Donaldson is a better bench option and Marika hasn’t been up to it but certainly puts Peitsch in the deep endDoran's Wednesday leak has Koroibete and Lynagh dropped from the 23, with Pietsh to the wing and Donaldson back.
I suggested earlier in the thread that McReight should play 10. Imagine all the 50/22's we'd kick!I’d play Tate at Prop and bring Tupou into 10 actually. Then move McReight to 15 and Wright to 7. Probably even bring Schmidt onto the wing for Marika. White to coach. That’s about it.
- I agree with some punters from earlier in this thread who suggested that if you are going the have Wright and Kellaway in the team that their skills are better suited to Kellaway at FB and Wright on the sting.
Imagine the media conferences with White at coach... would be even more annoying than the poison dwarf. I could get behind Tupou at 10 though.I’d play Tate at Prop and bring Tupou into 10 actually. Then move McReight to 15 and Wright to 7. Probably even bring Schmidt onto the wing for Marika. White to coach. That’s about it.
I hadn't realised just how big Caleb Clarke was until seeing him in person, but whoever plays right wing has their work cut out. It probably has to be Kellaway given most alternatives are left wingersYeah you definitely aren't dropping Wright for Kellaway right now. I think it's pretty obvious Schmidt likes the two fullback thing so it'll be any mix of Wright, Kellaway and Jorgensen for 14/15.
Now that's a team I want to watch....I’d play Tate at Prop and bring Tupou into 10 actually. Then move McReight to 15 and Wright to 7. Probably even bring Schmidt onto the wing for Marika. White to coach. That’s about it.
I've said it before - but I think Wright at Fullback would be the first name Schmidt is writing into his team sheet at the moment - at least for the backs. He's almost the only player with a big personality and leadership out there
That's a bold strategy Cotton, let's see if it pays off for 'em.I’d play Tate at Prop and bring Tupou into 10 actually. Then move McReight to 15 and Wright to 7. Probably even bring Schmidt onto the wing for Marika. White to coach. That’s about it.
We all know you secretly support the Waratahs and Wallabies.Of course I don't want NZ to lose............. but if this new Scott Foster coach gifts testimonials to start Slowjog Cane and Handbrake Flapanara ..... and has BB anywhere near the starting XV............. and NZ lose......
Wright and McReight.I've said it before - but I think Wright at Fullback would be the first name Schmidt is writing into his team sheet at the moment - at least for the backs. He's almost the only player with a big personality and leadership out there
Hooper was lavishing praise on Kellaway after last week's game which surprised me a bit.I get Schmidt must like the Kellaway type on a Wing but he's been fairly meh IMO. Have him on the bench as cover and bring in some genuine firepower that can threaten like Toole. Spread the defence a bit as they can't give Toole a metre of he's gone then open it up for Len and Wright a bit more.
I thought last week was his best game in a while. He's had a very indifferent year otherwise.Hooper was lavishing praise on Kellaway after last week's game which surprised me a bit.
