I'll be interested to see how much game time Ezekiel Lindenmuth (LH prop) gets this year.

I'm interested to see if Jarred Adams gets a contract with the Blues because he worked his way ahead of Lindenmuth for Auckland. I like both as prospects.

So who's Cully then?

Plagiarism!

@Machpants I was just reading that article in the newspaper. Some strange selections and notable omissions (e.g. DMac) in his squad. There will be plenty of competition in the midfield over the next 4 years.

The fact he selected his coaches is interesting...

Coaches: Dave Rennie (head coach), Tony Brown (attack), Scott McLeod (defence), John Plumtree (forwards), Clarke Dermody (scrum). Selector: Wayne Smith

@Tim Only issue with that thesis is that the current champions have only won it once.

U20 rugby is not senior rugby.

@Nepia And a number of their players like the ABs are getting rather close to qualifying to play Pressies Grade.

What annoys me is the defense coach. Under McLeod, the All Blacks defensive tactics were way too passive IMO, they lacked the aggressive approach equivalent to England's during the semi final.

So, Kaleb Trask debuts for Chiefs. He a contender, or possible future option?
