[QUOTE="ABs2011, post: 602276, member: 57663"] Well that is certainly a pretty impressive AB team. When they first set this game up I was expecting a complete B team, however this team is quite a bit more experienced than what I was expecting. Our back three may well be the most dynamic we have had for a while and with DC running the ship from 10 I expect the ABs will put on a lot of points. Strange to see Richie start at 8 - does that say something about where the AB selectors see L Whitelock is at (I.e. not really in the mix yet, cause that suggests he is #4 at best behind Read, Messam, and Richie)? Or is it just that the selectors wanted to give Richie some game time but also wanted to see Cane start again at 7?? Happy to see TKB get a start - he REALLY needs to make the most of it because he has been arguably the least impressive ABs this season. I hope he goes well. Will be good to have a close watch of Bird as well. I've seen very little of him at any level of rugby so keen to see how he stacks up. Should be a fun game. Let's hope the weather in Tokyo is good.
