@KiwiMurph He did, he got picked after about his 6th game for the Highlanders.
From memory, he scored 3 tries at Eden Park against a God awful Blues team which propelled him to higher honours.

Realistically Jacobsen, Lakai and Iose should have more of a chance of making it on form, especially now Ioane is leaving.
Dont be silly! Tom Christie is ahead of all of them! He’s a Crusader 7!

Where is Corey Kellow rated then? Must be a chance?
AB XV - already better than Grace.

Shows the benefit of being in a winning team eh
bro didn't Frizzell the lessor get the 6 jersey from your bench?
Was an incumbent already though. He did come good at the World Cup too
What fucking alternate universe world cup did you watch?

I think Grace will be in the All Blacks.
That’s not to say that I would pick him but I think two thirds of their best loose trio will make it, and it won’t include the best of the three.

My uncle overheard a convo Razor was having at a local Sumner cafe yesterday when he was ordering his coffee and he was talking about the Canes 7, 8 and 15 which we can all assume is Lakai, Iose and Love. My assumption is that he will be watching those guys with great intent on Saturday.
I was down in Chch for work a month ago and got to meet Razor in person. What a guy he is. We went for a walk one morning and he came flying by on his bike, gave my uncle a high five almost taking his arm off and had a quick chat, which he almost does with my uncle nearly every morning. My uncle isn't someone that bothers Razor too much but he gave me that feedback yesterday being a Canes supporter. Interesting indeed. He probably has three Chiefs players he'll be looking at closely on Saturday aswell.

Not too much info in this, but mentions that the prop mix and loose forward selection have had plenty of debate. Also name drops Vaa'i and Aumua as players who have learnt from Retallick and Coles, respectively, and taken on more responsibility.

Was it your uncle or Razor who didn't know the names of the Hurricanes players?

My uncle who is one-eyed as you can get.

I'd be worried if he wasn't. Blind Freddy would be watching those 3 in the biggest game of their careers so far to see how they go - a precursor to see how they would go with the step up to test rugby.

@KiwiMurph I wonder if the AB coaches will be at both semi finals.

You would think they very much should be.
