Grace hasn't been up to it this year (he's had a few decent games late in the season like Sotutu) - you'e better off including the Tongan who has had a good season and might finally realise his potential or go with a three sided coin.

With Cane out there's no way this coaching group won't start Ardie.
Ardie will start at either 7 or 8.
At least he can't play both which means a start for one of Papali'i/Sotutu/Jacobson.
I’d say with both Cane and Frizell out that Ardie is a dead certainty to start in the bigger games
-
I'm fine with Ardie starting (though prefer him off the bench), but he'll need a couple of big boppers either side of him.

No big games for a while tho, first 3 aren't

Just realized I put this in the wrong thread.
Provided his head is okay, I think Jacobsen should get the spot at 8. Akira at 6 and Dalton at 7 - with Ardie as the impact sub.
I'd like to see that huge Canterbury prop on the bench and Peter Umaga Jensen be given a go at 12 at some stage. -

Super rugby isn't test rugby.
Hah and I'd forgotten about Frizzel. Isn't he injured?

@machpants shit of course, how could I forget player voting is the selection criteria this year.

It's higher than the opinion of someone's who thinks Ardie is not a test match player, he won us a few over the last few years against the boks
-
@machpants won games on his own?

Don't be facetious. He was a major factor, same way as Carter, McCaw, etc can be a major factor; and it would be hard to see the victory if another played instead.
