Can los pumas take on the mighty all blacks up front? Will king boff kick them to a half time squeeky bum time for the kiwis? Will Dmac light up the field and shut down all his detractors? Will we see a different haka tonight?

Find out later!

Head, heart and arse requested before the match please.

Your head being your rational prediction. Your heart your longed for. And your arse your 6 pints deep wild take.

I was thinking about that some more. I've been a bit anti the draw in the past because it was so lopsided. But; there's something to be said for doing the draw at least 2 years out. It makes test matches in the first 2 years of a World Cup cycle mean more. We want the tier 1 teams to try to be the best in the world all the time, not just from 18 months out from a World Cup.
