I haven't seen any of this. How did Takam look for a guy brought in at short notice? I know Joshua had prepared for a different fighter, but Takam lasting until the tenth round coming in a week or so ago, even as the known backup fighter, seems a solid effort. Fair play to him.

Have they played the/le Spivs or Leinster yet? The World Champions title would be a trinket but a defining status anyhow.

I'm not sure about Mo'unga playing vs. Aumua etc. Perhaps his week off from playing last week was considered.

If he is MoM, that's two finals in a row.

A few of you guys are pretty chipper after Winston's decision.

Surely Wellington can't lose another final.

Better still declare NZ the winners. I'd take that hollow victory for the reaction it would cause in India.

Williamson gone now and used a review. We can claim a moral victory though with match fixing allegations against the groundsman who has been caught agreeing to prepare the pitch to suit two bowlers. https://i.stuff.co.nz/sport/cricket/98237847/head-groundsman-suspended-amid-matchfixing-claims-prior-...

making NZ a less attractive place to work for those that can work more or less where they choose.

My prediction for next week is that Gabriel decides to shoot Negan while he's locked in a confined space with him, only to be out of bullets. Then he'll regret vandalising the windows.

That's just awesome that Aumua has made it, he's a real superstar in the making. Quite remarkable given his age and position. Coles and Taylor will both be nervous, if Aumua continues on his current trajectory they'll have to be putting in some pretty polished performances to keep ahead of him. My ...

One of the government's goals is to increase productivity, driving up the minimum wage is at odds with that. It makes no sense. I dunno... you'll be more informed than me I guess but I think there's a myth that connects productivity with wage costs. Efficiency is a measure that needs to be included...

Yep, leg byes when taking evasive action is fine.

Good start. How much spin is the pitch expected to take?

So with the 37-man touring squad being named tomorrow, are there likely to be any surprise selections? Aumua, Duffie and Tim Perry are being mentioned a bit in the media. Wonder if they'll take a fourth halfback, if only to get him in the environment with Kerr-Barlow about to leave. I'll be quite s...

Is it too soon for Ennor to take the vacant wing spot? He has looked very good at ITM level and I would like to see him given a chance. Which wing spot is vacant?

Agree. AC called him out early. Serious player.

if I had read the first post I would have seen that.

I haven't heard SOB's comment on it yet, but he is usually pretty late. I expect he imagines the Wallabies should have won 3-0 though.

This has been a strange season. Looking brilliant at times and rubbish at others, sometimes all in the same game. These last 10 minutes will be a test.

Odd that Savea is coming in for all this grief.
