God help us if B.Barrett goes down in a tight match and we have to rely on McKenzie to try and run the side. Mo'unga must start next weekend, regardless of B.Barrett's availability.
Ditto literally any other option at #8. L.Whitelock might be able to chop down an entire pack for a Highlanders team playing with 7% possession, but offers nothing with the ball in hand. A.Ioane isn't available, so get Squire in there. Or Taufua, if he's available. He'd wreck some havoc on both attack and defence.
God help us if our pack play that poorly again next week, and the 2 halfs throw passes behind the 10 as often as happened last night, or whoever starts at 10 will look pretty average. I do believe that Mounga will start next week, but still pretty sure they won't chuck DMac out over last night, or by god it will be a completely new team from here in. They got the series and a few injuries so there will be a few changes, but blaming DMac for AB performance is head in sand stuff!!
