Do I hear 7 ''rookies'' in England team to play AB's?I see 50+ points coming to the visitors.Does anyone see the sense in this when the ALL Blacks will have a team on the bench capable of beating most sides?Asking 1 ''rookie'' to step up is a big ask,but7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Regardless how many rookies play for England, there is no chance of England winning against the ABs.
English rugby is still too focused on what school/university a player went to, or selections based on (often outdated) reputation e.g. Jonny Wilkinson.

All Blacks is a whole different story this year, well as far as they're doing now. All Blacks have no time for rookies. But then again, rookies at International Level aren't really rookies right....

England is not worried about the up coming test against the All Blacks & Springboks. England is going to use these test to give new players the oppotunity to make there mark. Only thing that matters to England is the world cup.
All Blacks will defeat England

I understand the "rookies" are better than the experienced line-up!! Time will tell.

Maybe it's really a deviously cunning ploy, designed to bring out the overconfidence of the Kiwis and ahh......no?
