@reprobate

Around the ground he may have been indifferent in that 2nd Irish test at 6 but Papali'i did take 5 lineouts in that game. He's actually a good lineout target but is never used there as a Blues 7

Papalii, Christie and McWhannell also at camp (from Papalii's insta) @Nogusta @Landers92 ?

I have a few contacts mate but none as good as photo proof on insta!

Good to see the coaches including players like Mcwhannell, assuming he’s an AB XV member. Get them in the environment when you can, can only be beneficial.

He's not a dud, he's okay, in the Sititi, Blackadder, Jacobson, Lakai etc group though.
Not a Finau or Sotutu or Read.

I agree that it's good to widen the player pool, but there are no AB XV fixtures at this stage. McWhannell will be in the Māori squad.

Would not have an issue with Flanders getting a shot

Apologies, these guys appear to be there in the photo (I’m sure of Christie but not 100% on McWhannell).

@gt12 McWhannell did repost Papali’i story on IG

France is definitely on the schedule. Not sure who gainst

[pakman]

@Nogusta Ce n’est pas France XV?

[Mr Fish]

Yeah England were supposed to be lining up a game against the All Blacks XV but nothing's been formally announced yet. Imagine the All Blacks XV will play at least two games, even if one is against a club side.

@reprobate he is a swing bench forward. Those are handy in a squad.
