Super rugby omissions
-
Thought it would be an interesting exercise to look at putting together a team of players that missed the cut for NZ super rugby teams and maybe discuss who’s the unlucky 2 or 3
Here’s a few names to get the ball rollingMason Emerson
AJ Lam
Tima Faiangaanuku
Lincoln McClutchie
Geoff Cridge
Alex Ainley
Sam Caird
Mitch Jacobson
Slade McDowall
Adrian Choat
Marco Fapuleai
Leni ApisI

@Steven-Harris might wanna check out the super rugby omissions thread.

Adrian Choat is not an omission as he is heading overseas (or is he heading overseas because he was overlooked ?).
Alex Ainley is now very old.
Tima Fainganuuku was just average in the Mitre 10 Cup.
Mitch Jacobson is too light for SR.
Sam Caird has to put on weight (as did Selby-Rickitt last year). -
@Dice before this year I’d say I’d beg to differ Umaga-Jensen was carving up for Wellington, though this year due to lack of playing time he sadly hasn’t hit the form he has...rumour has it Wellington havnt offered him a contract renewals so he’s off to Otago.

I think those guys are a couple of the most disappointing players compared to the early fern hype from recent memory. Obviously behind Gibson and Hodgman by a long way but still.
