    @Stag can't have an All Blacks team without De Groot from the Southland Stags, otherwise I like your starting 15. Think we can find better reserves than Havili & Perofeta

    @Grooter I stand 100% corrected. That would mean Tu’ungafasi out or the match day squad altogether as better options for bench.

    Finals. He's been awesome and had some size, if reece was going to play, I'd replace telea

    @Grooter Talea or Clarke could easily come in for Perofeta and Lenert Brown for Havilli, but I think the positions that Perofeta and Havilli cover balance better.

    @Machpants in a team performing poorly Reece was just about the best player in the entire comp. He has to start on one wing.

    True, we're flush at wing, I wouldn't complain, narawa either.

    I thought there'd be more about TJ, I just don't think it's fair to chick Ratima straight in it, versus an England team that's already had a season and game. But again wouldn't complain, just wish we still had Roigard

    Totally disagree on perofeta, he's not abs level

    Disagree on that, he looks the goods and what better way to find out ?

    Agree wholeheartedly on Perofeta though. Not up to it.

    Ah righto, gotcha. In classic fern fashion I jumped in without reading everything.

    Him and Roigard as halfbacks for 2025 ? ( or earlier if the latter comes right ) sounds good to me.

    You copy and pasted my starting line up and just replaced one ex Cane with a current Cane at 15 so no one would think you copied my homework.

    Lol i hadn’t even read the thread before naming mine. I actually updated mine above. Changed my mind on the starting halfback just because of experience.

    Your choice at 19 is about as good as mine too 😉 I just realised my team doesn’t have a reserve half back either……

    Shows the lack of experience genuine test match options in that area.

    McKenzie covering halfback? There's that razor innovation.
