what will be your outrage selection? Which inclusion/exclusion will have you blow up in initial irrational outrage?
The "f"s for inclusions.
Fifita, but I don't think that would be irrational
Franks. Just hasn't been good for a while.I would be annoyed if they excluded either of the Ioanes that are possible. One has time to find form, the other, I think we need 3 tens. The third Ioane has been discussed enough.

@mariner4life What's yours?

@mariner4life What's yours?
not sure i really have one, because i am resigned to them happening.
I know Crotty is coming back in, but i think that's shit.
I think both Todd and Fifita are very lucky.
And i am with Rapido, the 10s and outside backs mix will be fucked up, and to include someone as bog standard as J Barrett

Franks. Just hasn't been good for a while.If the team is named in alphabetical order we'll know soon enough. Aumua, Jordie and Coltman won't have long to wait.

@mariner4life You'll be incandescent with rage if they decide to take two big second fives and ALB misses out!
I think they'll make some picks that I wouldn't, but it's selections around the fringes that will only come into play if injuries strike.
Agree on the balance of 10s and outside backs - that's the most likely thing that will bite us.

I heard Nonu is in....

yeah that's it. If ALB misses out I will deadset quit the side.
Ioane out, J Barrett in would be a close 2nd.
A conceivable one is Patty T missing is out, but Barrett in. That would be fucked.

@Magpie_in_aus I have heard that I am not in
-
@mariner4life I reckon there will be a surprise or two on who misses out - in terms of what most are picking as their squad.

The word is that Franks is out.
NZ Herald saying no Franks or Laumape.
