Ima gunna go all old skool Fern on yo asses ... but how hard is it to google how to spell Ah Kuoi?
E.g., Messum, Reid ...
Out of the hundreds of worse spelling mistakes on the Fern, you choose to pull up on that one..
I could have sworn it was spelled Koui not Kuoi but fair play. -

How many do the AB XV usually take?
Agree with majority of this. I’d expect Ma’u to be in, played for them last year and apart from his rough couple weeks in super he has had a good year. Still only 25.
I also won’t be surprised to see them find a spot for Fihaki(lol).

Says the person who always types Jacobsen, not Jacobson.

Guilty.

I could have sworn it was spelled Koui not Kuoi but fair play.Tbf, Ah Koui simply makes no sense against how it's pronounced.

Looks a pretty strong team.
Would have gone to this but it is on my daughters birthday
