I haven't seen any Mitre 10. What has Frizzell's form been like??
He's mainly been playing lock for the Mako. Going reasonably well.
-
@Chris-B Surprised to see Frizell called up - what about Squire?
-
There's still a big part of me that would like to see what Akira could do in Black

He's the biggest part of the PDP.

@Bones PDP?
Powder Dry Plan....
Well he’s held up his end of the bargain

Foxy might have inadvertently revealed the reason for Squire's omission on Breakdown on the All Blacks YouTube channel. They started discussing Squire's issues and Foxy said JK (Kirwan) would know about or understand it more than him. That suggests depression or some other mental issue.

Anyone who turns down the ABs must have mental issues. I don't mean that in a rude or facile way, just that clearly either there is something going on if he is physically able to play rugby for Ta$man but not for the ABs.

There were always going to be injuries.
Can we at least get on the plane first?

Look at this way, you go to work and there are personal issues going on that might require you to be close to home/doctors/therapists for a while. There’s an important work overseas trip that comes up. Because of what’s going on you tell your boss that at this time it’s best that I stay close to home and that they should send someone else this time. Someone else goes and you keep going into the office.

@ACT-Crusader Yeah I get that - but that someone else may just grab that opportunity and surpass your previous efforts

I hope it's nothing happening in his personal life. If I had to guess it is because he feels the pressure of the ABs environment and the high standards required. It's not as if he has ever really reached the standards expected of him set by previous holders of the jersey and maybe that stress got to him.
Either way, he has my sympathy but it's probably the right call by Hansen to overlook him even if he's available.

@mofitzy_ Yeah but Shannon Frizzell???

It's a massive shame Jacobson and Papali'i are injured but the next cab off the rank has to be Frizzell. I'm sure he'll run riot in the pool stages but I really hope he isn't needed in the pointy end.
