Why wouldn't the Māori coach have an inside word about which players would be probably available to him?
-
@antipodean Apparently they generally do:
“It had its challenges, but the All Blacks management and coaching staff have been extremely open around who might become available to us, post the Japan commitments,” he said.

So it's a non-story.

@act-crusader ...the dropping of Cully. The whole Mitch era really.
Henry over Deans in 2008.
The Hammettuer thread - you did great service at keeping that one going and going.
I don't like to see wrong-headed thinking prevail!
-
@antipodean The thing is that they normally do know who's available, but with Ioane they didn't, and were surprised that he was.

I know, yet it did for four years before the Canes saw the light and appointed a new coach and won their first Super trophy.

Maybe it was a last minute swap out with the white version of Akira - Evans and they didn't get round to notifying McMillan?

Just a pity that the cleaning lady found Hammer's blackboard after that!

It's a shit article because it has no timeline. They 'make a few assumptions fairly early on', 'didn’t really anticipate Akira being involved' and 'the All Blacks management and coaching staff have been extremely open'.

@tim my favourite one from Sunday didn't result in a try because think Nanai kicked it dead. But he smashed some bloke, dislodged the ball, regathered the ball, and then moved it on instantly. Physicality and skill.
Definitely the 14th best loose forward in the country...

It must have been partially scrubbed ... because they made the finals.

@mariner4life I'm just waiting for Luke Whitelock to grow a new body and become the physical test loose forward we know he can be.

This would be the biggest Fern meltdown over a selection in years - many years
Since Toeava I reckon
Wasn't that just one single poster ...whose name escapes me at the moment?

The American guy. He did great work on the middle east thread too. Oh and winger with his Weepu rants were consistent
