    Sititi has played other loose forward positions too hasn't he? I remember him playing 7 for Harbour?

    Yes, and played at 7 for the NZ U20s.

    I thought that Jacobson had a huge game tonight, and it was noticeable that the Chiefs missed his presence at the breakdown when he was in the bin (and a bullshit call that was).

    Harsh bin or not it was still a deadshit play to take Jordie out off the ball. A common occurrence with him.

    It fucking was not. At full speed there was nothing in that. Gardner bitched his panties in to something that wasn't there.

    Nothing in that despite never having the ball. Yeah right.

    Um what? He passed the ball.
    It was late, but penalty should have been the worst outcome

    Jacobsen channelling his inner Pieter Steph Du Toit.

    How dare he get physical and actually smash Jordie !

    @mariner4life He's hit form at the right time. He'd be selected as backup 7 though.

    @nostrildamus I'm not saying Jacobson starts for the ABs, only that he is worthy of being in the squad. I still prefer him at no.8 but he has shown he can play 7 as well, and wins breakdown turnovers.

    And I'm happy with that. Works hard. Hits hard. Is effective.

    Any word on whether Josh Lord is going to be available? I'm guessing no. How about Scott Barrett?

    @sparky why

    Running game, quick pass, gets the ball out fast, and as Rakete-Stones can attest, can hit like a truck.

    Yeah ... seriously embarrassment getting smashed like that by a ruck rat (TM @Smuts )

    For the Hurricanes, think IWL and Lakai would've done their chances of selection no harm.

    For the Chiefs, Jacobson, Sititi, Narawa, Ratima boosted their chances.

    He is out for SR and hasn't played any club rugby yet.

    I’m glad to see that people have mentioned Jacobson. He’s playing in his best position to get an AB cap again - he’s incredibly similar to Paps and can play all three positions well.

    He’s there for the bench when Blackadder gets injured.

    In fact with the current injury to Roigard it would be silly not to pick a Ratima- DMac combo

    Can be a risk having a rookie 9 start a Test, but on balance I hope you're right. Want to see TJP's experience on the bench in case it does go tits up though.

    Too many Chiefs. Only one token makes the squad…

    Ratima, Fakatava & Hotham for the halfback positions with Christy next off the rank

    Perenara will be picked.

    Maybe not after his display today.
