Last year we felt we weren't settled on our midfield. It was always an area we were looking closely at
Last year? More like the last 6

Look who shared this. I love him. Make him an AB next time Fozzie you dumbass.
That's awesome. Robinson must have asked the bar staff if he could look at the CCTV and then filmed it off his phone so he could post it. Lad!

Decent set of forwards, terrible set of backs. What a let down. Can't remember an AB backline with less threat. Average midfield. Terrible wings. Bridge's selection ahead of Leicester Fainga'anuku is some sort of sick joke.
Lazy, conservative, unimaginative selecting, Foster sticking by his mates. It's almost like Super Rugby form counted for nothing. I guess Foster skipped watching the games and went to McDonalds instead.

"There are some unlucky players who put their hand up and we hope continue to."
What a stupid thing to say! Clown. I think we are all unlucky NZR chose Foster ahead of Razor.

Why is that stupid?

@tim Lets be honest, if Akira didn't push and shove after scoring tries early in his career, everyone would love him and there would be no dispute as to whether he should be there or not.'
He's the enforcer we've been looking for since Kaino moved on.
-
@african-monkey that's not being honest.

@frye he strikes me as the ultimate team guy, someone that can fit into and help improve any team culture.
As a Northland fan, while disappointed for him, I am also relieved he hasnt made it (yet) as I am hopeful he will lead us in the NPC.

I kinda hate Salakaia-Loto for being run around by George Bridge in that 2019 bledisloe and now Bridge just gets to be an All Black for the rest of eternity.
He was playing 6 that night. There's a reason Rennie and Brad Thorn don't play LSL at 6.

@bones Off the bench, wiseguy.
Not sure Faiane is in the selection frame, even from the bench...

@hooroo If you back your judgement and your judgement is good, then players who miss out aren't unlucky, they are less deserving than those who got picked.
Ahh semantics crossed with FDS.

whether anyone thinks he should be there or not it hard to argue with how much it means to them which is cool to see, more than just a job

I think I'm happier with just "unlucky players".
Even though Big Leicester is one of my Mako boys, I have to say that right now, I'd choose Bridge ahead of him. Leicester still makes a lot of mistakes - regardless of colours he's not safe.
He should be a Fern favourite right now, though - because if he'd just recycled that ball close to the line instead of crabbing over the line and getting penalized, the Crusaders would have scored the try they needed and recent history might be quite different....

Or Ennor dropping the ball with the line open. Quality AB play there.
