    @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.

    Tamaiti Williams. He's been huge for the Crusaders.

    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.

    @ARHS Maybe a reference to Clayton McMillan (due to all the Chiefs players mentioned)?

    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.

    In all likelihood it will probably be a fatty in the front row (Williams) , Roigard or Fakatava, and Stevenson or Narawa.

    Its a pity we don't have a few more tests to give the likes of Levi Aumua and Roigard a go.

    I haven't been watching Levi Aumua.
    Anyone want to tell why he should be considered for the ABs.

    @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.
