Are the AB lock stocks so low that we're looking back at Luke Romano with Rose tinted specs ? seriously ???
He's the inspiration for this thread!
Basing his selection pretty much entirely on watching him for Canterbury vs Ta$man where he handed Quinten Strange (who was selected for the ABs) his arse in a hat!

Ah I see.
Well apparently this is the greatest Championship in years and the All Blacks being selected for the national team has ruined it all so I'll take your word for it.

7 Lachlan Boshier / Dillon Hunt
8 Mikaele-Tu'uI'd include Flanders with MMT.

proof our "depth" is utter dogshit

9 Actually Finlay Christie has been increasingly good for the defending champions.
As has 14 Mark Talea - who was terrible under the high ball in several early games, but dominant at the weekend. Not sure he's been the best 14.
11 Big Leicester has been decent though a bit quiet at times, but Rayasi has 11 locked up IMO.
5 Quinten Strange was excellent last weekend, but refer Romano above.

showing my bias and limited attention to other teams
5 Josh Dickson (been a noticeable step up for us when he's played)
8 Nasi Manu (still has it, already capped for Tonga though so not really) -
@Kiwiwomble I reckon Josh Dickson would have made the team on Super rugby form if he didn't get injured.
Agree on Nasi Manu - he's been one of Otago's major threats with ball in hand, but I guess he's ineligible.

funny, I was thinking the opposite! Given the post-RWC departures, we've got talent on the way

Not ready yet, but Kaleb Trask has FAB written all over him and not in the Scott Hamilton sense

You got a tasty hat lined up?

Agree with this. Talea has been disappointing for most of the season, so due for a big one this Sat.
The two best wingers have been Rayasi and Fainga'anuku. Just move one to the right wing.

10 - Brett Cameron

He’s got as much chance of being an All Black as Masaga, Ranby and Atiga
