All Blacks World Cup bolters
-
@gt12 Has lost 10 kilos and is fitter than ever before apparently hence has become much more prominent around the park. I still think he is a bit green this year for a test tighthead and needs a "Waterloo" moment from which to grow like Lomax against the Tahs last year (?) Mind you Newell coped fairly well....

Joe Marler delivered one of those last year.

@antipodean Mmmm....strong scrum, good defense, good ball runner.... what do you want to see? Drop goals?
If it worked for Matt Dunning....

Think the midfield could provide a bolter. Apart from Levi Aumua, I'm wondering if Poihipi might be a call.

Possibly if there are injuries and a need to blood some backup in the RC but I can't see the room in a RWC squad. Jordie, Rieko, ALB and Havili are locked in I would say.

@Victor-Meldrew Excellent decision maker. DMac/Poihipi/Rona worked well together.

Taleni Seu.
He plays for Samoa now.
Let's buy Samoa.

This guy.

Aha thanks Tim- could not figure. Don't think Poihipi and Rona are near that level at present. Still think at least 4 new AB's. Narawa and Stevenson flagged already, Roigard needs to be trialled, and Tamaiti Williams is much improved and deserves a chance.

@Frank Wait for him to get a season with the Crusaders and we may get a better idea, he would probably improve a lot under their coaching. From what people are saying he offers a real power game in the centres something we have been lacking since Nonu and Sonny. I would be a lot more excited about him at the Saders if Leicester was staying.
