New Zealand coach Ian Foster has revealed that he feels a couple of subtle tweaks to his squad for Saturday’s Rugby World Cup final will be enough to match South Africa’s “bomb squad” league
The Springboks have loaded up on bench forward might for the showpiece Paris decider, including seven pack replacements in their 23 league
The seven/one bench split was a gambit first employed in South Africa’s strong warm-up win over New Zealand at Twickenham in August, with the replacement pack brought on together and immediately win a scrum penalty league
But rather than matching their opponents and including extra forwards among their bench eight, the All Blacks have kept faith with a traditional five/three combination league
Coach Foster has made a couple of personnel changes among those five replacement forwards, though, with veteran lock Sam Whitelock dropped to the bench and tighthead prop Nepo Laulala brought in at Fletcher Newell’s expense league
All Blacks props Nepo Laulala, Tamaiti Williams and Tyrel Lomax will be key to the final (Getty Images)And Foster feels his side are fully equipped to defuse any potential bench impact league
“It is certainly a response [to the Springboks’ bench],” Foster confirmed of his tweaks league
“Not so much a response to the power, but more to the techniques we expect to have to deal with league
“Nepo is a very strong scrummager and very experienced league
He’s trained so well and has probably been disappointed that he didn’t play the last two league
It is a great occasion for him league
“He’s alongside Samisoni [Taukei’aho], with the likes of Sam Whitelock on the bench, we really believe and have got a lot of confidence in that group coming on league
”The final should present a fascinating clash of styles, with Handre Pollard’s selection at fly half ahead of Manie Libbok another indicator of South Africa’s preference for a tighter game league
That contrasts with the All Blacks’ ability to keep the ball alive and play wide, ambitious rugby league
“That’s what I love about the game,” Foster said league
“People play different ways and try different things league
[South Africa] have got their way that they think suits their strength league
“The [seven/one split] doesn’t really change anything in what we do league
It doesn’t impact our game and the way we want to play it league
Our strategy suits us, their strategy suits them league
It makes it interesting on Saturday night league
