The have not even bothered top publish the Squad List plus not considered because of injury list on their website at the time (7.10pm)I write this.
Was up for me
As well as Cane, several other injured All Blacks weren’t considered for selection, including props Ofa Tuungafasi and Joe Moody and midfielder Jack Goodhue. Highlanders halfback Folau Fakatava was also not considered for selection due to injury

@machpants Moody and Ofa T will change that a fair bit.
Yeah, also outside of Ardie loosies average less than 5

Umaga-Jensen will be hating on Holland right now.
-
@machpants Thanks, I can see it now. Am in a state of shock after seeing the name F. Christie ( Ta$man). Hopefully this does not set the benchmark for future selections in the halfback position. It is almost as if Jason Holland was consulted on that particular selection.

This squad is a fucking joke.

Mediocre squad, mediocre coaches.
Get Razor in there ASAP.

@higgins should not even be in the team in my book ..personally he’s a last man standing selection …
-
At least they got the Captain right to stand in for Cane.
Squad will look better with Moodey,Ofa T,Goodhue,Cane maybe TJP( better than Christie)all back for 2022.
But I can see some of these selected players not surviving after the RC.The worst thing is it is going to look like a brilliant squad before that, with 3 weak tests.
It will make Foster look like a Rockstar in some peoples eye's until he gets really found out. -
