I feel a bit sorry for Fozzie. Im watching him on the breakdown at the moment and he is a terrible orator.
He looks completely out of his depth and ill-befitting of the role.
That guy presenting him with the jersey was amateurish as well. Really embarassing.

Fozzie was shocked to be "winning " something hahahaha

Wilson was so bombastic as a player
stood up with other Otago players when NZR were competing with others at the beginning of the professional era. Didn't expect him to go from that to all the appearances of a corporate shill

Proctor looks very unlucky to me.
He has at least played in the midfield this year when it matters.
I’m well sick of seeing Crusaders back-up players picked as ABs when they cant command a start in that position.
And the preferred player doesn't make it. Proctor though might be better of playing for the AB 15 than sitting watching the ABs play.

Haven't read anyone else's comments, so apologies if I'm just repeating what has already been said, but holy fuck this is a nightmare scenario. On what basis can the selectors determine that Finlay Christie's play over the SR season merit inclusion in the All Black squad over Webber?
How do they watch Beaudy and think "here's a five-eighth to steer us around the park"?
The ongoing mystery that is Shannon Frizzel makes Blackadder Snr as visible as peak Cullen.
Laulala. Clarke. No Stevenson.
So a player that will clearly not be in the position he's been listed, takes the place of one of the form players.
And I bet that the new form players will get their chance to impress by playing an away Test in a depleted match day squad, so will be forced to look disjointed and confirm suspicions they aren't ready yet. And hence we'll take the same donkeys who've failed repeatedly to France.

Curious to know for the thousands of posts on the "bolters" thread did anyone pick Dallas?

ha ha good to on him, a true bolter that pick.
A few raised eyebrows from me on some of these picks, but quite clear this is not a RWC squad. It will be interesting to see how many of these players will find any game time and a chance to step up.
Conversely plays like Beaudy, I'm sure will get plenty of time to find any form although for me with a whole season to find some, looks like a player Fozzie just wont give up on..Although I didn't expect him to be named (nor deserved it), I do expect RTS to be playing league before year end and if I am Shaun Stevenson, I would be seriously be considering some of the league offers, such a great football talent and would be a shame to lose him, but in squad as cover only..seriously Fozzie GFY.

Dallas Macleod named MOTM surely on current form he must be in with a chance.
