North vs South
-
This is what I'd much rather see, based on alternative eligibility criteria, if all fit and available:
15 McKenzie
14 Alaimalo
11 Jordan
13 Collins
12 ALB
10 Mo'unga
9 Drummond
8 Sanders
7 Lentjes
6 Grace
5 Retallick
4 Strange
3 Tokolahi
2 Coltman
1 Moody -
starting XV's aside as neither will start i think Collins should have got the nod over Sio

@Stargazer will be spitting tacks - no MMT...
And Prinsep makes the SI team, WTF?
Spitting tacks, spitting fire , expletives

@Bovidae said in North vs South:
You can also see who the AB selectors want to look at, even if they have had minimal playing time in SRA. TTT, for example.
A number of players were unavailable for selection due to injury, including 2019 All Blacks Dane Coles, Scott Barrett, Sam Cane and Ngani Laumape.
I'd like to see a full list as the likes of Robinson, Jacobson and Grace aren't selected either.
And Gareth Evans, David Havili ...
-
@Stargazer Jesus! forgot about them too
-
TTT, Vaii'i and Selby-Rickit are massive bolters. The rest of the selections are about as expected.
Bryn Hall, Otere Black and GCT should be involved in this game. Do the selectors have a problem with from North Harbour?
I assume D Mac and TJP are First Five cover for NI.
-
At the risk of boobooing T-cube is back!
Is that a fuck you to Gats? Or did we ever find out if he'd been injured?
-
that pack that Tim picked for the North is a fucking bash-a-thon. Good luck on the hit-ups South
-
@mariner4life Hunt and Frizell are the two leading tacklers in the comp, bring it
-
They had to cover for that other guy

yeah, those boys looked awesome folding Crusaders forwards like laundry a couple of weeks back.
suddenly i am quite excited by this game.
-
@Canes4life Ioane listed as a midfielder, so you'll need to rijig the North line up

Can only assume that TTT was always a Foster project and he wants to see him back playing at a higher level.
I thought he played well in his few short showings but must be offside with the Chiefs coaches for some reasonfark are you serious he was bloody awful in his few mins - which is harsh as someone is always going to struggle in 10 mins trying to make an impact.. didnt someone put up some stats last time he was on he missed like 3 tackles and threw an intercept in a very short period of time? Struggling to recall - trying to remove all memory of this season....
-
He was bad against the Landers, after being good against the Canes, but I think he only got on the field twice.
Canes: Not selected
Saders: Not selected
Blues: Not selected
Landers (14 minutes): 4 passes, 1 tackle made, missed 2
Canes (15 mins) : 23 passes, 3 runs, 2 clean breaks, 44 metres, 1 offload, 1 tackle made (no misses)
Saders: Not selected
Blues: Not selected
Landers: Selected but didn't get on -

"Sam Cane hasn't really started going through the return to play protocols from a training perspective because his team has disassembled so he's been taking some time," Foster said on Tuesday as the respective North and South squads were named. "He's looking really good, getting better each day, so we're hopeful that won't take too long but it's more of a precautionary thing now."
