AB Depth Chart 2020

@Frank Depends on the type of lock they're looking for. If they want a big power lock, IWL is definitely the man. If you want a fast runner and better line-out jumper, it may be Quinten Strange. I'm not totally sold on Dunshea (yet).
-
@Stargazer if IWL makes it I will farken scream because we let him walk out the front door
-
@canefan For 2021 and beyond, there are still 4 locks in front of any of the contenders. If they're going to pick a fourth lock, this year, it wouldn't surprise me at all if they go for a lock/loosie instead. Don't shoot the messenger, but that may be Fifita or Frizell.
-
@Stargazer Tom Robinson another possibility in that role.
-
Think Moody and Coltman have been done a disservice here ball in hand and to a lesser degree in defence.
Locks, yeah looks light this year but there were about half a dozen excellent performances in the weekend from a bunch of inexperienced fellas. Parkinson needs to bulk up, Dickson is definitely a contender if he carries on like that, those two young chiefs locks could be perfectly ripe in 3 years time.
The Hodgman myth continues...

he's starting in the 6 jersey the next time Black jerseys are given out

@mariner4life If Luke Jacobson stays in one piece, I think he'll wear the 6 jersey.

He'd want to play a damn site better than he did on the weekend. The big ginger from Northland looked just like what we've been looking for since Kaino left. Real lineout option, punishing in defence, big engine.

Yep would agree Jacobsen wasn't that impressive for a first hit out.Robinson had a big game on Sunday.

@Bones In several positions there are more contenders for the years leading up to the 2023RWC. Cullen Grace, Devan Flanders to name just two.
Oh I see....anyone outside Hawkes Bay or Canterbury?

@antipodean I am bias as hell, but I love watching him play, has some of that old school abrasiveness to his game, coupled with a huge motor, he would certainly not look out of place at the next level up!

Performance in the first game after months without playing doesn't say anything.
This whole thread has a silly timing. Let's see how things are going at the end of this competition.Agreed. Hard for Luke to impress watching the Blues play in the final.
