North vs South

[Bovidae]

That was from the AB trial in 2004 at Eden Park. Probables and Possibles use the same colours (black and white).

[Bones]

@canefan ok I'm stumped - who is that on Keef's left?

[Bovidae]

@Bones Sivivatu.

2 Aumua
3 Ofa T
4 Pat T
5 Scrafton

16 Coles
17 ?
18 Ta’avoa ( back from injury?)
19 Goodhue/GCT

[Tim]

South?

1 Moody
2 Taylor
3 Laulala
4 Whitelock
5 Dunshea

16 Coltman
17 Hodgman
18 Tokolahi (eligible?)
19 Parkinson/Strange (may be suspended)

[Tim]

Which loose forwards are available for South?

Hunt and Christie, Frizzell, and who at 8?

[Tim]

@ACT-Crusader Yeah, I guess he and McAlister are the options.

[Stargazer]

Nepo Laulala qualifies for South, not North

[Stargazer]

@Tim Gareth Evans at 8

[Tim]

@Stargazer Good spotting.

[Tim]

@Stargazer So South's pack will be something like this?

1 Moody
2 Taylor
3 Lomax
4 Whitelock
5 Dunshea
6 Frizzell
7 Hunt
8 Evans

16 Coltman
17 Hodgman
18 Laulala
19 Parkinson/Strange (may be suspended)
20 Christie/Sanders

[Stargazer]

@Tim Yeah, I think that will be close to who they'll pick. I don't rate Sanders at all, and would probably pick Christie, but it's a real shame Cullen Grace probably won't be back in time. I'm convinced he' been in the squad.

Probably Lomax for Tokolahi

[Tim]

@Chris Forgot he first moved to Ta$man.

[Tim]

Revised North:

1 Karl T
2 Aumua
3 Ofa T
4 Pat T
5 Scrafton

16 Coles
17 Ross/Johnstone
18 Ta’avoa ( back from injury?)
19 Goodhue/GCT

[Tim]

North really have a lot of options in the loose forwards.

Cane
Savea
Papalii
Kirifi
Boshier
Robinson
Ioane
Sotutu
Mikaele-Tu'u

When is Jacobson back from injury?

[Canes4life]

@Tim add Kirifi to that list aswell, he's been immense.

[Canes4life]

@Tim can't disagree with that starting tight five on form. My loose forward trio on form would be 6. Boshier 7. Savea 8. Sotutu. Sorry Cane but I would have Papalii on the bench.
