    AB's will win by 9 points with Cruden having a blinder.

    Can't see the Wallabies having more opportunities to score than the All Blacks, it's pretty much down to whether we can take them or not. Hopefully we put this match away nice and early because I can see Toeava or Donald fucking this up for us if they come off the bench.

    Any news on the line up yet?

    NZ front row clearly better. Second row probably goes to Australia, but only because of Vickerman's recent form. Horwill is also a shunt, so it is very close. Too close to call for the back row.

    Genia is miles better than Weepu, and Cooper on a good day is better than even Carter. On a bad day however, and he'll make Brett look good. Nonu and Smith >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> McCabe and Ashley-Cooper. Outside backs are close, but I'll give it to NZ based on form.

    Our forward reserves > theirs, but Ellis is a shunt. But then again, so is Fainga'a.

    How many major injuries do NZ have? Just the one or what?

    Just Carter (officially), from what I can tell. That's almost our first XV.

    Muliaina is also officially injured.....Good thing Dagg is better atm.

    I must say if Cruden runs well with the ball like he has shown in the ITM Cup we should win. I personally thought right from the start that Cruden should have been selected ahead of Slade so not too worried.

    We have beaten the Aussies before without Carter remember (Slade starting and Cruden off the bench) Cruden won it for them in that game too.

    Just as long as they don't put Donald on we should be alright.

    I'll be nervously watching it of course. May even do a Gazza and shed a few tears (minus the orange juice) if we lose.

    DWTA. Slade certainly has more potential and a bigger future ahead of him.

    Can;t wait for this game...but late on a sunday night? Fuck that's gay.

    The Australia/South Africa game was an ideal time to have a game. I know they do it for more viewers etc but yeah don't like it.

    Regardless of who wins/loses, the third place playoff is going to be best match of the tournament.

    Hope the Wallabies win just purely for bragging purposes over the Kiwi's I know.
