@Chris-B seems like there's a mako arriving at Abs training every few days first it was former mako Telea, then Lomax, now Frizell & you seem to think quin isn't far away
It's because the NZR salary top up is minimised due to the lavish Mako contracts.

Have BBBR and Barrett started together before?
Yes, as Whitelock was missing from those games in Aust last year.

@taniwharugby Tuipulotu played a full 80 for Ponsonby , looked in amazing shape , had a good natter to him

3 weeks ago we picked 5 locks, now we have 2, after 1 game. That's quite the attrition rate.
One assumes Patty T will come straight on to the bench. God help us if one of the starters goes down early.
Didn't you play lock bro? Time to book a flight...

Lol considering even at my playing weight I was about thr size of Ben Smith this place would fucking erupt
I mean, even I would log in to rubbish my selection

@mariner4life isn't that the beauty of the fern? i would say even the worse AB was an order of magnitude better than any of us...but we call them shit and we'd all put on the Black jersey in a heartbeat if asked

You'd get a big money offer from the Canes though.

@FakatavaAllBlack Mitch Hunt is practicing hard!
The Henry days of having our 6th and 7th 1st 5 ready to go are over. Sorry Mitch.

Not me.
I was a toss of a coin away from AB selection.
No - sorry, the point I wanted to make is that I'd be crippled for life in the first tackle, so I am "unavailable for selection"!!!

Brett Cameron wasn't the Henry days was he? Surely any 10 anywhere in NZ is in with a chance following that precedent.

@Nepia Mitch isn't without hope.
@Kiwiwomble is right - and you never know whose Mum is reading your posts! (Who was posting about SP wearing his AB gear on the golf course?)
