I would go with Sinfield and McGuire, with Tomkins on the bench. They both have experience and then Sinni can be used as utility to bring Tomkins on. Eastmond was ok as centre and TBH the centre positions worry me more than the half backs. McGuire had a poor game. He wasn't the only one yet the fekwits on here have made him the scapegoat. JP, Moz and Westwood haven't had half the stick McGuire has got.

You however have made yourself look ridiculous, (again). I dont know what your motive is, but even if it is intended as a troll, it is a poor attempt.

Tomkins was incredibly poor in the first half. Mcguire was the only half back on the pitch for 40 mins. Like I said, the fekwits have gone after McGuire. What about the other poor performers?

Emma, for goodness sake come on, McGuire was culpable for three tries, not helped by Sinfield jumping out of the line but nonetheless was absolutely shocking.

The biggest cheer of the game was when he was taken off!!

Tompkins on the other hand looked a direct threat despite being starved of the ball in the first 40 - TS should build the side round the kid and give Eastmond his straps, he was good when he came on and again showed that running direct instead of across the field is the way to go.

typo

you just made it......

My prediction was real close, clearly I know more than anyone esle around here.

I might if it didnt take an hour to find it

bang on lass!

Like I said before, it was the fact that McGuire's poor performance went on for the full 80 which is the point. No-one else's poor performance leeched into the second half. McGuire just did not come up to standard by any measure whatsoever for the whole match and he really shouldn't be picked for the Kiwi game.

Thats what I said in the pub last night are you sure you wasn't ear wigging

I don't think the problem was with Briscoe, the gaps and busts appeared to be well inside where there was no effective right sided second row defending.

Australia, game in the bag, appeared to opt for a defensive half aided and abetted by the official.

That's because we were playing 4/4/4 - RHS 4 being wing, half, centre and loose and the right second row in the middle four.
There was clear miscommincation between all four on that right hand edge.
