Unlucky Players not to get a SR Contract
-
To start the ball rolling here is my reserve squad of 23 - available at some stage for WTG's (Tua & Allan injured), and NZ-eligible (no Lambourn or Ili), and not in Sevens squad:
F Smith, McKay, Vaha'akolo, Walden, Poihipi, McClutchie, Milo-Harris, Roots, Finau, Choat, Cridge, Parsons, Coxon, Iosefa-Scott, Eklund Res: Tofa, Leger, Ratima, Jacobson, Carroll, Lindenmuth, McIlroy, Tolai
Who else do you see as the leading contenders?

I had a sneaky suspision we might have brought in Nasi Manu with an eye to experience and leadership
-
for the record

@Kiwiwomble Himeno is a bloody big halfback......
-
@KiwiMurph With the addition of Squire he may need to consider a change of position to get a start now. Can he do a good Tanaka impersonation?

Rugby pass take
Super Rugby 2021: The hapless men who missed out on contracts - and the players who might be counting their lucky stars
Amongst the almost 200 players selected for NZ Super Rugby sides for 2021, there are certainly a few men who will count themselves lucky to have been offered a contract for next year - and plenty others who will feel somewhat aggrieved.

@Machpants Tamati Tua was on the Blues Radar , but is booked in to have surgery this week and will not be returning until the start of the 2021 Mitre 10 Cup..
Northland Skipper Jordon Olsen is a tad unlucky was outstanding during the Mitre 10 Cup campaign, but like Tony Lamborn who has represented the USA, Olsen played international rugby for Canda last year ..In my opinion , the 2 unluckiest players not to pick up super contracts are Adrian Choat and Lincoln Mclutchie
If Salesi Rayasi was Auckland’s best player , then Choat was the next best ..as for Mclutchie , I am still trying to figure this one out , the man has X Factor , and can open up any defence
