Yes, the 2nd test match thread keeps getting bumped...


This will be Nic White's last test...



Love White and appreciate the service he has given to the jersey but surely we aren't giving out farewell tours? Gordon and McDermott have clearly played better unless there has been an injury. Regardless of the dead rubber game for the series, this game is so important for us to win.

I suspect Gordon was too beaten up after playing 80mins after coming back from injury, they want McDermott on for the last 30 mins, but they also want someone training with the starters all week. So that's White

Honestly I think it's a master stroke. Gives the team something to focus on other than the heartbreak of the 2nd test, and gives the team someone to rally behind. Mental resilience is going to win this test

This concept lasts for about 2mins of motivation then it’s gone.

But tbf 32 mins of good Rugby would have won the last Test.
