[QUOTE="Shaggy, post: 601537, member: 43400"] I'm pretty sure they'll start Ritchie at 7, Luatua at 6, and Luke Whitelock at 8 ... Hansen has made so many statements about finding cover for Read at 8, that they must give Whitelock his opportunity. ... I'm hoping that Perenara at least makes the bench, and gets some decent game time, after all of the injuries that he's had - would like to see Piutau get the game time at full back too, but the squad balance doesn't look like that's possible (unless they play Nonu on the wing)... it looks like they are trying to turn Piutau into a winger in the Cory Jane/Ben Smith mold.
