    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! πŸ™‚

    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.

    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.

    Add Sione Mafileo as a tighthead option.

    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

    Agree with this. Talea has been disappointing for most of the season, so due for a big one this Sat. πŸ˜‰

    The two best wingers have been Rayasi and Fainga'anuku. Just move one to the right wing.

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