The weather man has forecast snow here on friday and saturday, which will slow the game down. Does that change anybody's team sheet predictions?
Have you guys seen the French destroy the Argie scrum? I almost soiled myself.
Let's hope James and Ben are made of sterner stuff.
Nearly Disco's team:
We can win, it will depend on patience, phase play and a bit on reffing.
We've got Bryce Lawrence. He is to Australia what Kaplan is to the Tahs and the only SH ref who doesn't understand "tackler roll away".
This was their team against the Argentinians. I can't imagine any changes to the forward pack (Harinordiquay came on as a sub and played like shit):

...I'd look forward to how he'd go as a 50 minute sub against tired backs with his twinkling feet...
I agree, Lindo, but how many times have we said this since he was included in the Wallabies set up? How many times has it actually happened?
I rewatched the ending of the Bloem game in this years TN. Burgo's cattledog impression to get the Wob's back into gear and on the front foot was incredible, and I think he's much more valuable coming off the bench than starting. Give Genia 50 minutes or less, then let Burgo do his thang.
I'm not going to bother naming who I think should start in this test as I will be a lot more concerned with team dynamics, tactics and a very positive win than any individual performance. We have had enough moments of individual brilliance this year anyway, often in losing sides - time to look forward to some memorable team performances ahead of next year.
