@mariner4life You better hope that we have transcended the NPC and Fozzie picks the Ta$man All Blacks.
Otherwise:Moli, Makalio, Lomax, Strange, Parkinson, Blackadder, Havili, Frizell, Christie, Hunt, Fainga'anuku, Havili, Paea, Reece, Jordan
Edit: Maybe Nankivell at centre.

I think Auckland is in the second-longest drought now - five years and counting. That was about the point where I started getting cross.
Wellington's RS challenge last year was their first since 2014. Both have been against Hawke's. Auckland's last appears to be in 2015. BOP a week earlier that year.

@mariner4life Daryl Gibson is your coach now.
this better be your idea of a sick joke

@mariner4life Even I couldn't come up with something so twisted.

as far as invitational XVs go, that's pretty disgraceful

I think the only guys who didn't make their NPC debuts for Ta$man are Moli, Hunt and Reece. But Moli is a product of Marlborough College and Hunt is Nelson College.
Sevu is a poach!

@mikedogz isn't this an incredibly early pre season game? The NPC won't start until August or so, surely??
They usually have a game or two to look at club players at this time of year. More like a pre-pre season to develop amateur and semi-pro players.

@mariner4life appropriate gif lol, I do believe delaney and latimer are part of the coaching set up and hopefully keep me from going off the same cliff.

@mariner4life bring it on if none of the Lions boys get picked by Fozzy either
Numia, Coles, Fidow, Bird, Ah Koui, Plumtree, Kirifi, Savea , Perenara, Love, Goosen, Umaga Jensen, Proctor, Savea, Garden-Bachop -

Always a decent plan to have an ex-Crusaders' coaching team!
-
@chris-b the question is will Daryl continue his recent coaching history (most likely) or will the support coaches (all 4 support coaches) cover his ass? I can only hope we dont go backwards as losing is bad enough, but losing after spending money on failed coaches is a worry..

pffft hahaha
yeah, right. All those desperately average Crusader All Blacks turned coaches have worked out so well.
It's only weight of numbers that gives a couple of successes.
Getting an ex-crusader coach has a worse hit rate than signing ex-Melbourne Storm players

We simply have to hope that it takes more than 5 games for the ordinary to become part of the DNA
We all know that Gibson is a lost cause, There may be hope for the other two yet
