Off the top of my head I'll throw the following in the mix:

S Barrett shouldn't be a Certainty, but probably is

Tuipolutu should be higher than a Possible, call him Probable

A Ioane should maybe be a Possible rather than Bolter

Add the following for Bolter consideration;
Aumua
Perry
L Whitelock
Makalio
Havili

Booboo's indulgent Outsider:
Nanai

Sadly Luke of the Whitelocks is probably higher than a bolter

Fair enough. No need to make yourself I’ll.

Unlikely that Canes will drop below 4th.

Fair point, although it is far more likely that the Canes drop out of 4/5 than the Blues making the finals.

Chiefs v Crusaders would also be interesting from a locking/captaincy/third halfback selection perspective.

ALB is a lock I reckon. Quality for a few years, and playing the house down at the moment

[Yeetyaah]

@booboo Today?

[Victor Meldrew]

Think ALB is a def. certainty bearing in mind the way he's playing for the Chiefs and Crotty's injury-prone-ness

[Machpants]

SBW is a certainty if fit too, basically if you were in the core squad last year, are fit, and not gone offshore = you are a certainty. It's the way the squad has worked for the Hansen era

Fitness a big "if" for me.

He'll be in the RC squad - just think Hansen and co. need to decide on a settled 12/13 which isn't constantly plagued by injuries

You’re right. Time to get rid of T. Blue and T. Cane

Moody, Taylor, Franks, S. Whitelock, Romano, S. Barrett, Todd, Read, Hall, Mo’unga, Ennor, Crotty, Goodhue, Bridge, Havili

I as really surprised that wasn’t the first post.

And what about Sevu Reece among the bolters ?

If he plays for the Crusaders, is he really a bolter?

Jeez next you'll be suggesting Goodhue plays second five to accommodate Ennor at centre.

With Crotty as a 12.5?
There simply isn't room for all these Cantabs.
