Beauden at 15.
That will go down well
That was always going to happen.
Again, he can't be rated as a 1st 5 if Mo'unga is on the bench.

Small mercies

@Jailbreak7 Whitelock was never going to play as he hadn't been involved in training in NZ.
Hopefully this selection means that many of the players not in the 23 are playing SA.

I’m gutted for Stevenson. What does that guy have to do to get a break?
I’m guessing if telia was available he and narewa would have had a start each in these first two games at 14 ,
Because he’s brought in as cover for telia maybe he’s a chance in the second game at 14, but I wasn’t optimistic for him at fb considering they thought they had that position covered with their original selections
-
@kiwiinmelb Telea is in Argentina and has been training, so assume he is a shot at starting next week as I doubt they will give SS a shot v SA...poor fella has been probably one of the best players in Super and NPC in the past year or so and cant get a shot.

Unless their planning was also to give Jordan a crack at fb , and the migraine issues continue, a door may open there .

@kiwiinmelb hopefully, he has earnt a shot.

Most gutted for Stevenson, this was likely his biggest shot for time given he is only there as cover for Telea.
A few good calls otherwise, based on actual form, some on reputation, however tarnished.
Seems like a wasted opportunity to see what the form back in SR could do at test level
-
Which top level test sides would the following get a game for in 2023?
Coles
Lord
Frizzell
BB
Vaai
Christie
EnnorHell even JB at 12?
While i.get this isn't the first 23, it's still super average
I hope they play well, but shit.... -
@mariner4life Actually I quite rate Vaai, but point taken about the rest. They would get no where near a French or Irish starting line-up.

@taniwharugby what the fuck is this shit? They've got room for SB and a real greenhorn and an out of form CC and BB but nothing for one of the best backs over the last two years in SS???

Typical Fozzie

@Darth-Sader this is the shit they should have done 2 years ago but because Foz is Foz, we're two years behind in our development and we're a handful of tests before getting smoked by France and a QF exit.
