@chris-b i can see your line of argument but I don't think they will put JB at wing again
I found a still from his last test there

NO LIFTING IN THE LINOUTS
oh, wati ... as you were
Hard to tell as the photo quality isn't the best but that could just be an old shot of Caleb Ralph.

@chris-b i can see your line of argument but I don't think they will put JB at wing again but they won't start without him so I doubt they'd start BB at 15. Then again I've been wrong before, I mean I wanted a Crusader to coach the ABs, what was I thinking!?
I don't think they'll put him on the wing again either (I'll be heading for the "Fozzie Must Go" bandwagon if he gets played there ahead of Will Jordan). But, I also don't see that he's indispensable - I could readily see a team with Jordie on the bench - or even missing out on that to DMac.

Biggest puzzle is fitting RM, BB, Dmac and JB into the same 23.
Maybe we could ask John Hart what to do?

the harsh reality is, not a single one of those players is so good that they absolutely must be in the 23.
I can only think of 3 players in the whole country to who that applies.

i honestly dont know if BB walks back into the teams. The other have all been playing against/with each other and so we have a good gauge

Did you hear Razor on tv last night? He apparently talking to NZR and reckons if it works he will be staying with Crusaders for another couple of years. Seems maybe he in line for ABs then, if not before?
On the JB thing, I suspect he will be at 15 , Jordan on wing (which is where he is better I think). Could be DMac at 15 but I reckon you'll see them both there at some stage this year , and RMo and BB sharing 10. -

not sure that sounds that great TBH, so he is staying with the 'saders, meaning Fozzie stays at the helm for the ABs?
That said, Fozzie is surely checking into the last chance saloon and has to hit the field running, well, his team need to if he wants to keep his job, surely...I really hope there is nothing signed until at least Aug/Sep.

Not sure I'd like to see that. But just to defend Fozzie, he's been what I expected.

What I'd select
A Smith
Beauden
Clarke
Jordie
ALB
Rieko
JordanMo'unga and DMac on the bench to rip shit up against a tired defense.
Unstoppable.

Fair enough mate, I came back so I could keep up with things, fingers on pulse etc

Trouble is that I donβt see a creator in there. Lots of Players that can create something from nothing if given the opportunity and a bit of luck but not someone that creates opportunities against organised defence.
RM is the closest we have to that then DMac because of the way he changes up the picture chiming in from the back.
