Back 3 a big surprise but is an exciting trio,

Only 1 I would question is AWJ instead of Itoje

Delighted for POM, mightened have even made the squad if Heaslip hadnt put his back out in the warm up before the England match, came in at the last minute had a stormer and hasnt looked back since

 

[Tredman]

Yeah, glad to see Daly in - he's one of the very few players we have who can do something really special. Josephs not even on the bench, shame that.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Itoje definitely should be playing but given what a shitwhistle he is these days, I'm glad we're restricted to just the one Gatland howler.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Presume that Itoje is on the bench so will be on at some point

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Same with 1/2p and Sexton you would think

I also have to say that the Welsh bias is slightly put to one side by not picking North, which on form is absolutely correct.

Agreed, its such a shame as the bloke is a hero when on form

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Well he has a week to sort himself out

 

[Donegal Wolf]

Subs are

Halfpenny, Sexton, Webb, Warburton, Itoje, Sinkler, Owens, McGrath

those front 5 replacements are more then decent

Getting tingly now

I told you that you needed to see a doctor about that rash...

You promised me it wasn't contagious

 

[Paul]

Sooo close

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Good start, we have been missing those kind of chances all tour though, got to capitalise.

 

[Tredman]

Looking a bit slow up front.

 

[PuntsWolf]

The NZ front row look like back row but are still powerful. And how is Beauden Barrett running through the gain line with such ease the pecker

 

[Tredman]

AWJ and Kruis are absolutely the wrong partnership so far - we are far too slow in getting around the pitch and both of them have been poor in the back line.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

What a try!

 

[Paul]

Oh my God

 

[Tredman]

Beautiful. Williams, Daly and Davies. Just brilliant.

 

[Bit on the shaggies]

Thought Williams had got himself into some deep shit there.... But what a try he's made of it!
