Seems a bit odd that we haven't had a leaked team yet.
That happens on Wednesday

If there are concerns about Kaino's fitness and Squire is unavailable, then I throw this trio out there. A bit left field but.....

Luatua on the blindside. He's playing well.

Could be worse. Could be Cane and Savea.
The Cardie.

Dumb from PT. Can't fault Tana on this call.

jesus. What a poor decision. That'll fuck his AB chances as well. Patty T to be playing Aviva Premiership inside 24 months

He'a signed thru until 2019 (luckily). He'd have to consistently skip training to get his contract voided.

I'd be interested in whether there's been any pre and post law change analysis when it comes to the new tackle laws. I.E. concussion rates, and also what led to the concussion - was it a high shot or was the player the tackler.
We seem to have a much higher rate of concussion this year following a law change that was meant to reduce concussions. I do wonder whether tacklers are putting themselves more at risk of head knocks by tackling lower all the time.

@antipodean yeah I did ask the same question a few weeks back about why we appear to be having more issues than other countries

Interesting call for Laulala: http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/abs-squad/93421108/lions-tour-dumping-of-tuipulotu-could-force-all-blacks-selectors-hand-ahead-of-lions-series. Would make sense as they have to blood someone to replace Charlie. Ofa's ability to play both sides less of an issue when not on tour.
