@nepia To be fair he was injured for part of this season. Anyway, I didn't have him starting in my team - Mannering, Taylor and Taumalolo would be my backrow.

I'd have him in the starting lineup or on my bench (anyway, you made a conscious decision to pick Hiku so your selectorial bona fides are as dodgy as Kidwell and Kearney). If he could play the last 6 weeks he could play another few and then use the off season to get better ....

@nepia The conspiracy theorist in me would suggest its because of Bromwich and Proctor getting the boot that Harris has chosen to get his injuries sorted.

Hmmm, that's an interesting theory - I might check and see if that's the word going around the marae back home ....
-
I just heard Taumalolo is not playing for the Kiwis and is turning out for Tonga. Anyone able to confirm this? Kidwell must be the reason surely.
-
I hear SBW was back for the WC so Harris did the right thing and dropped out
ffs if that news about Taumalolo is true... wtf! How swiftly has Kidwell lost the dressing room!!

Fuck Kidwell and NZ league.

@paekakboyz It's behind a paywall? It wasn't for me (I don't subscribe to Aussie rags).
@nepia yeah, maybe it picked up I was a scummy NZer aye!
-
This goes to show the Kiwi jumper means bugger all. Sure, hate the coach, but turn down a world cup spot because of it? Assuming it is the coach...
-
And it's pretty dumb of JT to side with the players, who both seem to be genuinely repentant, over the stance that Kidwell and NZL have taken.
Agree @Crazy-Horse, seems crazy that the Kiwi's jersey means so little to him.
Bro's before representing your country yo!!

Let's cross live to Kidwell at the NZRL headquarters:

The conspiracy theorist in me appears to be right. The players are uprising against the coach. Again.

@paekakboyz It's not like Taumalolo would have done this lightly, remember he chose NZ over Origin and Australia under immense pressure.
I think it shows how little international league rates, but then again we see it everytime a Kiwis team is selected and all of a sudden Kiwi players turn up injured.
I just hope that they don't switch his allegiance on the NRL game on PS4! I'll be stuffed without him ....
-
I suspect crisis talks are underway with Taumalolo and NZRL. It hasn't been confirmed by the NZRL or Taumalolo yet, and if it was already a done deal the NZRL would have tried to get on the front foot.
I could see Taumalolo being selected for the squad tomorrow morning but not Kidwell.
-
Taumalolo confirms it with a piss-weak statement that we all know isn't true and the NZRL isn't talking today. Everyone is looking bad right now.
