Ennor and RTS lucky to be there - otherwise it looks good.
The real interest is in who is named in the AB XV squad tomorrow. The positions of who is named may hint at which players in this AB squad might get a run for the AB XV.
Yep both Lucky RTS I don't see how he has earn't Fuck all,Ennor as well.
RTS is a project player/apprentice essentially, Ennor has incriminating photos of all the selectors and Mark Robinson.
Trouble with RTS is that he needs game time which he shouldn’t get because he is not good enough - certainly not at 2nd ( who made that decision ) but also on the wing. Hate project players. At best he should be in the other squad. Even then….

30 year old project back by the time the WC rolls around .
Project for what buying the donuts for Fozzie.Not saying I agree with it, but don't find it any worse than Ennors continued selection.

I didn't see the full half but I saw him make some nice yards running straight and a nice offload to set a team away for a break. You could see the class.

Some of those players better get used to holding tackle bags as I don't think they'll be playing much.
Japan test and a precursor for the easier RWC pool games.

Project for what buying the donuts for Fozzie.in fairness to RTS, like SBW he's played at the highest level and proved his mental game is up to it. It's just getting acclimatised to Rugby.
missing the NPC last year really hurt him. He's played something like 17 games of pro rugby now - it's baby in terms of experience.
What surprised me was how small he was compared to others out there. I tend to think of leaguies as being big units, but he's relaly not.

Quotes from Foz
"The Northern Tour is always a highlight in the All Black calendar and this year is no exception," said coach Ian Foster. "With less than a year till the start of the Rugby World Cup, this tour gives us another great opportunity to grow from where we finished the Rugby Championship. Experiencing big Test matches in the north is great preparation for what is to come in France next year. "The addition of our All Blacks XV team will also help grow this experience across a wider group of players." Foster was excited by the return of Lienert-Brown while also signalling more chances for the fringe All Blacks, hinting we'll see more game time for Stephen Perofeta. "In the midfield you'll see a return of Anton Lienert-Brown. He's a very experienced, seasoned player for us, played a lot of test matches and we've got a lot of faith in him. He's coming back from a long term shoulder injury but he's now back playing and we can monitor him through the next two or three weeks but we're excited about his inclusion in the group," Foster said. "The tour also gives us a chance to play some of the younger or fringe guys that didn't get a lot of time during the Rugby Championship and I guess the likes of a Stephen Perofeta is one example of that of someone we'd really like to see get a lot more time on the park. He's warranted his inclusion on that basis."

Isn't that a perceived holdover from the pre-professional days?
He looks way more jacked than Reiko Ioane who should probably spend more time in the weights room than on his phone.

To be replaced by?

Why? He’s faster than anyone else we have and he doesn’t really lose physical exchanges. Plus RTS is flexing while doing exercises while Reiko is sitting on his arse reading the Fern and thinking “I’d like to see you fat fucks play centre”.
