But then at the same time, you've got to give credit to Jason Ryan because I think when we all saw the twenty three named, we saw George Bauer in the reserves and we all went, Oh, why isn't Xavier Numier?

I thought Bauer was just there to

play guitar and the vibes guy.

Well, we got shown completely up, didn't we?

As our armchair selectors.

They were like, We like the experience of George Bauer, and boy did we see him come on and make a difference.

And our suffer almore and Fletcher Newell as well, who has had his detractors as well.

So that reserve front row getting the job done, I think, caught us all by surprise.

And then we've got to start uh make a change at lock as well with Josh Orden.

That's the big one, I reckon.

What do you do there?

Because there's different ways of doing that.

Uh Tupovati was considered the best lock in New Zealand for a long time.

Told Devlin at the start of this year he wants to play lock, but he's obviously seen as a blind side flanker.

And that didn't really help our line out.

Like our line out wasn't good, was it?

Did we win eighty about eighty percent of our lineouts, which you kind of want to be into the nineties with the

uh line out.

So do you move Tupovati up into lock and bring Simon Parker into six or another one of our magnificent loose forwards into six?

Or do you make a straight swap with Dari and Tuipaloto who are both going to play at least half a game against the Lions tomorrow morning?
