Under the Pump: Can Foley back it up? Will Fainga'a find his range? What do we expect from the Barrett bros?

Bernard Foley, Andrew Kellaway, Hoskins Sotutu and Damian Willemse are under pressure. Foley rose and then became a frontrunner for trivia question fodder in ten years.

Bernard Foley is the captain of the All Blacks. He will be judged by the same referee who will decide the match at Eden Park. The match will take place against Australia.

Folau Fainga’a is the backup hooker for Wallaby. He will be targeted by New Zealand's All Blacks team. Foley has a lot of reputational motivation. The lineout is a key weapon for New Zealander teams. Faerga”a will have to focus on one shot at a particular target. The Wallabies have three new second rowers. They are Brodie Retallick, Sam Whitelock and Victor Matfield.

The Rugby Championship is the lesser goal of The Rugby Championships. New Zealand won the Bledisloe. Beaudy loves to torment Australia. Foley and Fainga'a need to prove themselves.

The All Blacks are the favourite to win the tournament. The home team is under pressure. Jordie Barrett is the first Kiwi under the pump. Beauden is also under a lot of pressure as he is playing in a new position. The Springboks are expected to beat the Pumas. They are also the favourites to do so. It's a big game for the home side.

Francois Philippus Lodewyk Steyn is the most talented player in the history of the Springboks. He has 76 caps and has played more at inside centre than at flyhalf or fullback. Frans is unbeaten by Wales and holds a 50-50 record against the All Blacks. Siya Kolisi is starting captain for the Boks and he will need to out-skipper Juan Montoya. The game is crucial for both the teams. The winner will go to the Rugby Championship. It's been the key in this tournament. Chasers have caught the early leader only to fade at the end.

Argentina play South Africa in a must-win match. Julian Montoya and Jasper Wiese are playing a lot of rugby. Marcos Kremer and Pablo Matera are the best loose forwards in the world. The Pumas are up against 14 hard forwards. Frans Malherbe, Steven Kitshoff and Malcolm Marx are going to push the Pums back. The quickest path to doom in South African rugby is to have a wobbly scrum with a strict ref.
