another year of wishing this season will end

Whoever it is they need to be an effective 3rd lineout option McReight & Valetini are given so the third needs balance out their weaknesses

Not sure why Swinton gets a nod, he hasn't done enough

It has more than one?

Joey Walton appears to be the preferred option, but I like him at 12, his kicking games adds flexibility I do wonder where they think Sua'ali'i will play

If only our up and coming players could develop in more than 6-7 adult games a year

I think Valetini's soft hands in contact adds quite a bit more

If prior evidence can be used to predict future plans we can expect a rather structured approach with workrate key, I think consistent efforts within a game plan will be chosen over random moments of brilliance

Despite that, he is more consistent

I think Lolesio will be the likely choice, he is the most consistent

A couple of points on the game 1/ The difference between the 10s was stark. Mckenzie was continuously scheming and the change in pace when he sighted an opportunity was amazing, even at 15 he left space, we kicked to that space and he accelerate and caught the ball 2/ the Chiefs in the warm...

Atamosero has been playing 30 minutes, he should be getting more playing miles

He will be coached by Ian Foster in Japan https://www.thepost.co.nz/sport/350248141/ian-foster-reveals-all-blacks-interest-joseph-manu
