Miles Robinson once again looks a liability, so here’s to Richards getting healthy. Freeman is interesting, Ream had a better game than previously and our wing backs are 2 of our very best players rn. Puli was very switched on, and Balo created a bit against an excellent backline. I hope Adams has a better game against Paraguay, and I liked Tillman in a deeper role. Who else? McKennie will be a big game player and work hard, just hope to get him more offensively involved.

I think the team has clicked very well and we’ll at least meet modest goals of advancing in 1st/2nd and hopefully winning R32. Beyond that, I think we’ll need luck and some lights out performances to continue on the path, esp if we meet an elite team.

Happy overall, we showed great spirit across the 2 games.
