Fozzie was part of the Hansen team though ..

Foster seemed to say something about Ennor’s injury being worse than Retallick’s.
If Ennor’s not going be available for a few weeks, that might well cement David Havili’s place ahead of him.
If Brodie’s going to need time to recover, how long do we give him? Does that end up meaning we take an extra Lock and one less Back Row player?

Damn. Just as I was coming around to Ennor a little bit. He was one of the only bright sparks in the first half yesterday. We have Sam and Scooter, so there is less pressure on BBBR to come back quick

Not too bad an outcome imo. I feared BBBR would have been out of the whole thing. A shame about Ennor, was starting to look good.

Still sucks that he's not there for France, but if he can play Minnow 2 then Italy, that's a good warm into knock outs

Liam Napier’s got the best sauces.
'Cruel timing': All Black in serious doubt for World Cup, big names facing axe
Some big names are on the chopping block while one player may be ruled out with injury.

I hope Dallas Mcleod is ahead of Havili.
I mean, if we want to have any sort of go-forward at 12 if Jordie is unavailable. -
@Frank I think I was the only one not overly impressed with McLeod. Like he didn't fuck things up when he came on, but all he did was go straight to ground on the carry, and struggled to get guys to ground on defence. Looked nothing more than average to me, and I'd happily take Havili over him. At least Havili can cover a few positions.

@African-Monkey
McLeod covers 2nd-five, wing, and possibly center at a stretch. -
@African-Monkey he threw a really nice dummy at one stage and showed a surprising turn of pace to go through a gap, think almost got an offload away at the end? That's not going straight to ground.

Without being sarcastic in any way, that's a big improvement over some of the midfield crap we've put up with in recent years

@Stargazer I doubt the media types are told early

The All Blacks account just posted this "highlights reel" of big Leicester on YouTube. Would they do that if he didn't make the squad? Or shouldn't we read anything into that post?
It would be hard to leave Leicester out after that. From what I’ve seen so far I’d start Telea at 11. So if role for last spot is off bench, with LF’s versatility it could be Clarke who misses out.
