    Heading down to Dunedin for the game. Should be a goody but still feels too early for rugby. Summer is just starting here...

    Hinton suggesting a predictable backline:

    9 Christie
    10 Barrrett
    11 Clarke
    12 RTS
    13 Ioane
    14 Telea
    15 Perofeta

    Thoughts on starting pack? Might be:

    1 Hodgman
    2 Eklund
    3 Laulala
    4 Tucker
    5 Tuipulotu
    6 Ioane
    7 Papalii
    8 Sotutu

    Based on availability, bench might be:

    16 Riccitelli
    17 Lay
    18 Tu'ungufasi
    19 Suafoa
    20 Choat
    21 Nock
    22 Heem
    23 Sullivan

    Classic eh, 5-15 could probably almost have been down in an EOYT starting sheet.

    No way. Better for us this game and for when BB stays next year and Stevie says fuck this I'm going down south to play outside the starting AB halfback.

    @Tim we'll wait for whichever one of Sullivan or Perofeta can't get a start.

    @Tim jesus that backline!

    According to AB threads that backline contains a useless halfback, a scattergun 10, a wannabe 12, a 13 that makes poor decisions, a stopgap wing, a wing with terrible defence that trips over his own feet and a fullback that isn’t good enough to get a game.
    Just saying.

    I see that and raise you an; injury prone halfback with an experimental knee revovery, a midget a 10 whp has barely played in the last year, our main threat on the wing, can he see out a game at 12 or will we see another month on the sidelines? a tough battler at centre, Jonah MK11, and a Canterbury reject at fullback. Your batch sounds a lot better than ours
