    Grace has only been used at lock at super rugby level in emergencies. Barrett, Tuipoluto, Vaa’i, Darry, Lord all out, options are stretched, but with the MABs back we do have a couple of options that are at least match fit.

    I'd like to see Ah Kuoi replacing Vaa'i but think he's gonna have to don the 5 jersey.

      In days gone by ah kuoi would be a solid Super Rugby cult hero.
      The fact he's in line for a test is a sign of where we're at.

        No sorry.

        I see the backline has made it to Facebook on a fan page so I might have to tone it back or may not find out at all moving forward if word gets back.

        I know I sound like a hypocrite and understand it’s a forum and we all love to share the inside word but if anyone is sharing it, please make sure it isn’t being sent to a social media fan page or to someone you think could send it to something like that.

        It may not have been from anyone on here but I just wanted to comment anyway on the off chance that it was. Want to be able to keep the sauce coming if possible and would hate to not be able to share it due to further leaks like that. Again, I know it sounds hypocritical but I hope you all understand where I’m coming from.

        Appreciate the understanding. Cheers.

            @Landers92 Maybe use a spoiler?

            Could maybe hide it in them in case it's a bot doing it?

                It seems like the mainstream NZ Rugby media have been briefed that there will be more changes than a toddler's mood in an afternoon.

                        @booboo I am well aware of that. Hence why I said it may not be someone who’s actually on here and just commented on the off chance it was. Could be a non registered person just browsing. Either way, you get the point.

                          Yeah, totally.

                          Maybe you've got to scale back to being enigmatic and darkly hinting at "rumours" ... makes no difference in the end, the team is the team even if we want to know it earlier.

                                          Big test for Finau. Let's see if he is the goods.

                                          Can some nerd tell me out of interest the last time an AB match day squad had zero Barretts in it ?
