Northampton is probably the team I'm thinking of!

Your national anthem should be the least of your worries buddy.

National Pride is another thing, I know you Welsh are as passionate about Rugby as we are.

Well that was what I was going to say. We know you're going to tank us, so atleast get our song right!

Ras Dumisani is being brought in specially to sing our anthem...

Hahaha worst rendition of our anthem in a while.

Only 9 hous till kick off.......................

Anyways, this will be a big match for a number of AB's players. Muliana will want to show he's still the best fullback in the country (assuming Jane is playing on the wing - I consider Jane both the best fullback and wing in the country). Dagg had a great debut, while Toeava (injured) and Jane are also quality fullbacks - the pressure will be on Muliana to perform. Guildford is obviously under pressure to retain a place in the tri-nations squad - Rococoko has played well during his two starts, while Gear has been outstanding for the Maori.

It will be interesting to see how Kahui goes at centre, he was outstanding last week after struggling during the super 14. Stanley has been solid in his two starts but would need to have a spectacular game this week to retain his spot in the trinations squad, with Nonu likely back from injury, and MacAlister likely coming in from the Maori squad.

Tialata will want to have a strong game - I think Owen Franks has surpassed Tialata at tight-head prop in the selectors eyes, but if he has a strong game he may be included on the bench ahead of Ben Franks during the tri-nations. Woodcock will want to show that last weeks performance wasn't an aberration, and that he is back to his best - another strong game here will secure him the starting loosehead prop position for the tri-nations over Ben Franks, who really hasn't been that impressive in his two starts.

One of the commentators just said Phillips is one of the best number 9's in the world.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

He is, though

Good call on the scrum 5, didn't see the ball get touched but you could see it on the replay

 

[SelimNiai]

We need to start making better kicks in open play, too many falling into Kiwi hands.

The Welsh scrum is going well.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Ryan Jones limping =/
Bit early to be losing people

 

[Jake Heke]

Cowan needs to go off, too many flat passes.

 

[SelimNiai]

Aw nuts.

Good try though
