Future Locks after RWC???

@Stargazer said in Future Locks after RWC???:
@Bovidae Yeah, was thinking the same.
If he stays in NZ, I think Scooter will be the senior lock. Vaa'i and Lord will probably be there and Gallagher and Dickson have a good chance, too. I don't think our locking stocks are that bad.
Big factor will also be who the ABs coach is after RWC 2023.
If it's Foster, he'll stick with Whitelock and recall Ian jones. Loyalty and all that.

I think Selby-Rickit would go well if given the chance. 26years old, so about to enter the prime years for a tight forward
I thought Hicks showed well this year and is the same age, looks like he can cover 6 too. But another from Ta$man eh.

@Frank the coaches like ScoBa and Tupou Vaa'i
I know there's been a need to play the A team as we always have our backs to the wall, but Vaa'i needs more game time and I think the coaches know that.
Hope he gets a decent run in Bled 2.

Josh Dickson would only be 28 in 2023.
I thought he was older than that. Seems like he has been around for ages.

Geez really? I only remember him for like 3 or 4 seasons.

I wouldn't be surprised if my muddled brain has him confused with someone else from years ago. All the Highlander locks look the same to me.

Remembered a story about Sam Darry moving to Auckland and Steve Hansen saying âcongratulations, youâve just signed a future all black captainâ. Anyone else recall this?
Sam Darry's need to be bigger. String-bean locks don't cut it nowadays.

Of course, both have had great seasons provincially aswell as for the Canes. Walker-Leawere in particular brings plenty of size and mobility which is needed at international level.
