Your pronunciation is very good
Scary 😮
I'm a South African born and raised and I also struggle with some of the names 😂. African cultures struggle with Afrikaans names. Afrikaans culture struggles with English and African names. English players struggle with Afrikaans and African names. You'd fit right into the rainbow nation 🌈.
That is one very scary team So much power and pace throughout and lots of experience aswell Ireland are goingto struggle i feel against this Bokke squad / team
De Allende always starts
I don’t understand why no Jarrod Evans call up or Joe Hawkins ? Jarrod Evans is a way better 10 than Costellow, Sam is the worst 10 ever!
Can SA beat Ireland? I think they may have a good chance.
Would love to see grant Williams start but very unlikely
Mostert will start with Snyman on the bench. Kolisi also will almost definitely start. Also would be shocked if Esterhuizen and TDT start. Most likely De Allende and Malherbe
What depth the BOKKE have. Great choice of first 15 and bench. Love your analysis
Agree Grant should start along with Esterhuizen! Your team pick is good !
Geh raad ( Gerhard), Jo Hun ( Johan) Nom gomma Zulu (Mnmgomezulu)😊
Thanks, I've made a screenshot of those 👍
Wobblies are Mud, Wales are Mud should be a good shit fight
I think we have got a dream team.
I think Shaun Stevenson is actually injured right now - saw it mentioned with the announcement of the Māori All Blacks.
Really excited about Aumua and Tosi.
Are you doing an Aussie team ?
Wales is so desperate they’ve payed the teams last coach to play for them
Can Wales tie the kangaroos down??? I doubt it... 🏉
We just have too wait and see they have 4yrs too get it right
Id have Josh Hathaway in their for the first game. Cap him so england can't grab him but also he is great.
Great channel mate, and ratings are always subjective but the big disagreement for me is Theo Dan. Have a look at his defence when he comes on, running around missing tackles left, right and centre. Equally as culpable as Finn Smith for that try. He can be as pretty as he wants ball in hand but he’s at risk of being labelled a show pony unless he starts making simple tackles.
Would love to know your thoughts on Rio Dyer. I know he got skinned badly on the weekend but 3 months ago post 6 nations you had him starting for the Lions. That is a crazy turnaround of opinion if he now suddenly can't make the worst Welsh touring side I have seen in my lifetime at least. Would love to know your reasoning as I still feel as if he's a quality player who could yet be the future of the welsh game.
Good pick. May see Ben Thomas in centre with Liam at 15. Possible Plumtree at 6Tzinza in boiler room with Daf
Is this the lowest point in Welsh rugby ever? Good luck boys 🏴
Two very poor teams. Don't think I'll bother watching this one
Better with Rio Dyer on the bench at 23 as Mason Grady can cover the centres.
Wales to win
These 2 teams are ranked 9 & 10 in the world at the mo' If we can trust World Rugby's figures then it should be a close game.
2 nill aussie
I wonder why Rodd did so poorly at scrum time when he seems to do OK for for Sale and I also wonder if Ted Hill is injured or at least fragile, because he would seem a natural call-up. Apart from the front row, I'm liking this England side more than any other since 2019. Marcus Smith has got better at kicking out of hand and tackling, so now he can really be an all-round player and offer that extra attacking threat - I love a running fly-half and he will worry NZ off set-piece and fast ball, if we get any!
Yeah Sam Darry is in the wider squad. I rate him better than Tūpou V
if they wanted some real strength i would use the Hurricanes centre paring of Barrett 12 and Proctor 13 Reiko at 11 with Reece at 14, that would be solid af. and Finau 6 Savea at 7 and Sititi at 8 now that some dynamic ball carrying
Lots of beef in the front row, fresh fit back five. Lots of pace and power in the backs. I can't see England getting a win on this tour.
Ratima to be starting 9 by the end of the year. he's the closest player to A. Smith
Any team under Jones is bound to be poor
Darry, Love, Havili, and Bower are in the squad as cover.
AB's are shaking in their boots
AB's what is shaking?
Never take England lightly.
😂 don't think so bruh. Noones taking England lightly but you're high if you think anyone is shaking.
Remember Razor said we have picked a team to beat England.....................open for other players to come in later
Agree entirely with Rich regards our captain. Thought his actual performance in the six nations were poor. Granted the loss of his mum and the captaincy of this young emerging team must of had an impact . But still see his basics as better than the dynamic Theo dan. And I would still go again with Rodd who to my thinking is worth another go.
If he is fit, Tuipulutu will start alongside Barrett. I noticed you skipped entirely over the real bolder in the squad, but Tosi is a whopper (140kg). The loose forwards I think will start with Finau, Savea and Papali’i and Barrett will start at Fullback. .
Great looking front rowers, Newell and Tamaiti williams are early 20s. Great loosies Ardy at 7 Jacobsen is an 8, blackadder . Ratima to start i think, great backs, pace and creativity to burn. But rugby is won and lost up front. Cant wait
Don't need Ardie at 7 he's known for his carries. Papalii will most likely be 7.
Anyone know why Shannon frizzel is not been mentioned ?
He's in Japan for a couple of years
He isn’t available as he is in Japan. Apparently there has been a lot of talk behind the scenes about getting him back though.
Good analysis. I think he'd go 6-2 split 1) de Groot 2) Taylor 3) Lomax 4) Tuipulotu 5) Barrett 6 Finau 7 Papalii 8) Savea 9) Christie 10) D Mac 11) Clark 12) Barrett 13) Ioane 14) Talea 15) Barrett 16) Aumua 17) Tosi 18) Williams 19) Vaa'i 20) Jacobson 21) Blackadder 22) TJ 23) Lennert Brown
Nice selection. A Coventry kid living in NZ. Team named hours ago - you were soooo close, well done.
Good mix of continuity with a sprinkling of fresh talent. Robertson favours a big 6, so great to see Finau there too and gives the loosies some better balance and genuine lineout option. Please stay fit Blackadder!

Ah thanks, I wondered why people were commenting about the title LOL!
England need to dominate the forward battle and keep it tight. This AB side will run them ragged if the game is too loose.
They wont dominate the forward battle because Razor chose all the physical boys from super rugby
Scott is physically intimidating. I think that this sheds light on Razor's future intent. You have to dominate your opposite in any era. You want men that can get that right. Razor had a lot of talent available. However you must dominate your opposite to win. AB's have this to tend to.
Scott Barrett has a tendency to get penalized quite a lot but apart from that he's an okay choice
