AB bolters thread
-
<p>Not sure if we will see too many bolters this year until the EOYT. Players may well be identified and called into camp for an assessment before being sent away with 'work ons'.</p>
<p>Those you mention are potentially likely to be part of that group as is Akira Ioane, D Mac, Lowe, Tu'angafasi, E Dixon.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Any 'bolter' this year will be someone they see as having great potential to step up quickly if required in areas we may be weak on in terms of depth.</p> -
Scott Barrett for me should be the real bolter,he has really impressed me <br><br><br>

<p>I think Blade Thomson is a quality player, but it will be tough for him to crack into the ABs though with all the other talent in the loose.</p>

<p>Savea transcends some mere position. Other players might have a position, but Savea has evolved beyond such mundane trivialities. He simply plays 'The Savea'</p> -
<p>Possible calls :</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Props : Tu'ungafasi (only for a training session IMO)</p>
<p>Hookers : recall of Parsons</p>
<p>Locks : Barrett (too early for Seu)</p>
<p>Loose forwards : Taufua, Savea, Squire, Ioane (EOYT) (too early for Fifita and Gibson)</p>
<p>Midfield : None (too early for Laumape, Thompson and Tamanivalu, maybe Buckman for the EOYT if he is fit to play in the ITM Cup)</p>
<p>Wingers : Lowe, Ioane (EOYT)</p>
<p>FB : McKenzie</p> -

<p>Parsons? I don't expect him back in black, unless Coles, Taylor, H Elliott, A Dixon and Coltman are all injured.</p> -
