Yeah but back in June was understrength AWs, in their hot humid conditions on a bumpy pitch.
It's all very different in cooler climes on a true surface. That's when you get the quick triangles going and can just blow these Island teams off the park. Like I remember Ben Old was at that Nations Cup tourney, but did SFA as the conditions just didn't suit him.
If Wood starts against Samoa the AWs could easily approach 15 goals. Their players will just be in total awe, and already be jostling for the post match jersey swap. But Bazeley might as well give Waineo a run.
