    @machpants Moody and Ofa T will change that a fair bit.

    @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.

    Finlay Christie will be the next subject of bitter press attacks from up north in their next tirade on poaching. I appeal to the NZRFU to rescind that particular selection to appease those upset about blatant poaching.

    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.

    @steven-harris Agreed. Surely the Going family must have someone available that could do a decent job?
