    With Cane out there's no way this coaching group won't start Ardie.

    Ardie will start at either 7 or 8.

    At least he can't play both which means a start for one of Papali'i/Sotutu/Jacobson.

    I’d say with both Cane and Frizell out that Ardie is a dead certainty to start in the bigger games

    No big games for a while tho, first 3 aren't

    Good chance for Foster to notch up another historic loss

    Imagine being so fucking dumb that you select Frizzell, Savea, and Barrett, and a hundred other bums, ahead of Papalii and Ioane, and then not understand why England fucking destroy your garbage forward pack

    Savea a bum at the last World Cup? This is laughable beyond comprehension. Ioane was lazy as fuck back in 2019, I wouldn’t of had him anywhere near the All Blacks.

    Pretty silly of you not even mentioning Read, he was probably the forward that was slightly passed it and there was probably question marks about his selection. But Ardie? You’re just on the troll at this point.

    @pukunui yeah Savea has to start in the 7 jersey, we need all the experience we can get. The 6 and 8 jersey are still up in the air at this point for me but I’ve liked what I’ve seen from Jacobsen so I hope they can fit him in.

    1. Jacobsen 7. Savea and 8. Sotutu, with Papali’i on the bench is looking pretty good to me.

    @mackerzzzz interesting that you have De Groot as the replacement hooker and Aumua as the replacement prop. 😁

    16,17,18 doesn't mean anything. Could be no23. He is still a hooker

    3. The mighty Williams
    4. Scott Barrett
    5. Vaiiiiii
    6. Robinson/ Blackadder
    7. Sam Cane (may be to old - if so papalii)
    8. Sotutu
    9. Fakatava
    10. Moanga
    11. Clarke
    12. J Barrett (could become a very good 12)
    13. Lenert-Brown
    14. Likley bolter/young gun. Ratumituvuki- knepkins?
    15. Jordan (could become cullen good)
    16. A Ross?
    17. S Vikena?
    18. Tuangafasi?
    19. Lord or Darry
    20. Savea
    21. Only other good young guy is Roe
    22. DMac or Z Sullivan
    23. Not sure - nani-seturo? narawa? Fihaki?

    Starting loose forwards as a trio aren't abrasive enough for test footy imo. One of Ardie or Hoskins would need to drop out.

    Williams is a LH, Newell is the TH to watch.

    That’s as far as I got.

    Williams can play both sides he was originally a TH
    Probably will get some game time at TH for the Crusaders next season with Michael A gone.

    1. Blackadder 7.Savea 8.Ioane might be combo that is worth looking at. Savea provides the experience with Cane out.

    Not sure Ioane and Sotutu should be in the same trio together. Especially if they are with Savea. All a bit too similar.

    One thing i have found interesting is that Ioane has dropped out of the conversation for 8 a bit. 18 months ago he was mainly seen as an 8 and not really an option at 6.
    Similar to his brother not being considered at 11 anymore.

    Jeez.

    678 is so open. Love it we're so passionate about it though.

    Savea, Papalii, Ioane, Frizell, Sotutu, Blackadder Grace, Robinson, Jacobsen ...

    Not really finding massive fault in any of those guys ...

    Pick 3 ...

    ALB is our centre right? Only way I can't see that happening is if they don't select Havili.

    If they don't select Havili I can't see any other option at 12. I wouldn't be surprised if PUJ gets selected though.

    And "have".

    Sotutu is going to be busy carrying them for 50mins.
