Considering our locks have actually been quite good this year, not necessarily a need to chuck Holland in straight away, but I can see him debuting v Japan, then joining the NZ XV, then potentially linking back up with the ABs after to get him in the environment...

@MN5 Would that put Anton Segner in a similar situation?
I don’t even know who that is sorry
German Blues Loosie.
And no that isnt a Teutonic concept synth poppy punk band. -
@nostrildamus He played pretty well in the Final v the Chiefs.

@Landers92 Have you got the Hollandaise Sauce?
Haha not bad from you.
Got tagged above earlier too for any other squad chat but haven’t heard a lot so far. Things seem tight lipped this far which leads me to believe there won’t be a lot/if any changes other than Roigard added.
Only thing I have been told is not to expect all 3 of Plummer, Perofeta and Love. Its expected only 2 of them will be named in the AB squad with the 1 missing out to be in the AB XV.

Ruben Love would have huge upside, what is his injury status?
He was fit to play this weekend but was ‘rested’. A request from the AB’s. Read into that what you will.

That first Counties try was a thing of beauty
How Razor can’t find a place for DP baffles me
Roigard looked sharp. His double step offs for his long range try showed he’s fit

I agree
The only explanation is that he didn’t play alongside his old man
-
At the moment Paps, Sititi and Savea looks an option.
I'll be disappointed if they don't give JB-Proctor-Ioane a run (12-13-14). They need to try various options. -

Some great sleight of hand in the pass to him from Hoss.

I think Dalton does offer skills and power in attack ( especially at 6 4 and 113kg or whatever the official stats are ) but for whatever reason he hasn’t shown much at the highest level. Anyone care to guess why ?

Have to say I’m gutted to find out the province Holland was born in was not Zeeland (it was Noord-Holland).

@nostrildamus said in All Blacks EOYT:
Can't wait for Holland to get into the ABs so I can make some Dutch Oven references.
If razor doesn’t select him it’ll be a clear cut case of tall poppy syndrome.
