@sparky Surely Ennor deserves a whole Test match to prove himself. He seems to have it all and is arguably the fastest of the lot. The biggest letdown is Reiko Ioane tbh, he's gone from being the best winger in the world last year to a player who is a 50/50 selection now. At least Ben Smith's excuse is that he's getting old, Reiko can't even use that.

Shag said he started Super with a hiss and a roar (and he did) - has just eased somewhat. He's rusty, they're mostly rusty as a team, and frankly I still think we'll put in a stron gshowing at the world cup. It may well not be enough, but RWC are bloody hard to win.
I think I'd prefer to see a fit and well coached Pat T starting, with ScoBar off the bench ... but ultimately the Cartel will know who's showing form in training and who can do the job for them.

WTF! Reiko had one poor game. ONE! We are going to have no players left if we are dropping everyone for one off poor games.

He's been poor since April. To be fair to him however, I think he has been overworked by the Blues, just like his brother.

Not advocating dropping him, but that’s hardly the first poor game he’s played this season
His second half of the blues season wasn’t great
