Are they gonna treat him like Piutau?
@African-Monkey They wouldn't be able to pick a lot of players for the RWC, if they refused to select any All Black going overseas, including Read, Franks and BFA. From what I've read, even Taufua is still in the picture.

Yeah the selectors seem to like him but to most on the outside he doesn't really seem to have pressed his case. Could be a big year for Hemopo and Frizzell. Wonder who the reserve is after them that is already ahead of Akira?

@Bones Elliot Dixon is still around.
@African-Monkey shit the forgotten man. Probably not really reservey enough.

@Stargazer I know haha I was taking the piss a bit with that comment but yeah, they were harsh towards Piutau in 2015 not that it really matters now or back in 2015 for that matter.

@Bones too reservey?

Frizzel moved some bodies and was very direct when he came on last week. I hope he gets a few more starts - he could give Squire a real run for the 6 jersey.

The next 6 replacement on the Highlanders bench.

Squire no loss. Frizzell and Hemopo already probably better players.
Said it before, will say it again. ABs World Cup back row: 6 Kieran Read, 7 Sam Cane , 8 Akira Ioane. Impact from the bench Scott Barrett and Ardie Savea.
I think he’s got the inside track to start at 8 next year, but I can’t see your back row playing at the World Cup.
The only way Ioane starts a big game is if Read is injured or loses form so badly that they drop him altogether.
I can’t even see a place for him on the bench either, as there is no lock cover if both he and Ardie are there. He’s re-signed so I hope he’s patient, and with luck will get some time this year, in development for next year.
