@Trig said in Māori All Blacks 2024:
Hopefully Ruben Love is made available for the two tests
Ruben Love being injury cover for Caleb Clarke means he misses Māori AB’s. If Caleb Clarke is ok then he will get released to play for Māoris, or so I’ve been told. Whether that means his named is announced or not I’m not sure but he has said injury cover means no Māoris.

..and Z Sullivan

So based on those selections I'd assume they will select the following as a starting side.
- Moody
- Thompson
- Renata
- Walker-Leawere
- McWhannell
- Suafoa
- Harmon
- Grace
- Nock
- Reihana
- Sullivan
- Poihipi
- Tupaea
- Moorby
- Forbes
- Eklund
- Rakete-Stones
- Norris
- Hicks
- Broughton
- Toiria Tahuriorangi
- Kemara
- Rona
-
No Josh Ioane and a couple of newbie Crusader 1st 5s. Even the Maori have their red n black eye patches on…

@ACT-Crusader Those two have been in the system for years, given we're short on first fives they are a good MAB selection, I would pressume Reihana would start for the 80 and Kemara would be there for cover if needed.

No Josh Ioane
In an interview on Maori tv Filipo said that Josh and Akira weren't selected as they were "moving on and focusing on the next step in their carriers". Has Josh Ioane leaving been announced at all?

I haven't seen anything official by the Chiefs or Waikato. It's a certainty that Jacomb will have been signed by the Chiefs to replace him.

I like the picks, and both are good young players. But was surprised to not see Josh’s name given I hadn’t heard anything about injury or departure.
