    I think Nepo Laulala is not an automatic choice. He was on the bench in the latter rounds as Angus Taavao was the starter on the tight head. Do not forget Tyrel Lomax either.
    On the loose head, I expect a discussion between Tuinukuafe and Moli who came back strongly after his terrible injury.

    Unless they are absolutely sure Owen is over his injuries Nepo will travel as the next best TH scrummager.

    I rate Moli, but can't see Kart T missing out, so long as he gets over his rather prolonged illness.

    From Cully’s squad the only questions I have are:

    Harris vs Coltman
    Patty T vs Fifita vs Hemopo
    Weber vs TTT
    Inclusion of Ioane
    Bridge vs Naholo

    I would change that into:

    Harris vs Coltman
    Patty T vs Fifita vs A Ioane
    Weber vs TTT
    Bridge vs Naholo

    On wings my hunch is Bridge/Havilli playing for one place and Reece/Naholo for another, as TWM like to have some variation up their sleeve.

    For me 51/2 and back up 6 the big questions.

    Exactly. Forget about 41 and 35, why aren’t more people talking about the abandonment of a crafty and subtle Thursday naming.

    I for one don't think they have gone far enough. If it was me in charge we would do it 10am Monday (so people can view while on smoko)

    Goes without saying. Here’s an exclusive I couldn’t find any room for Akira Ioane, but he was in my top 50.

    I'm confused that Bryn Hall is so low at 48. I'm wondering who the 3rd Cantab/Crusader halfback is further up after Drummond and Enari.

    Also shouldn't this be 49: Whetu Douglas-Jordan Taufua? After all they play the same amount of minutes combined each week as Akira does.

    @Nepia No, because Douglas and Taufua play with more than twice the workrate of Akira 🎣

    You're supposed to be a Canes fan! Also last years Super stats doesn't support the Taufua workrate myth.

    The early photos were correct about the AB jersey

    Looks better on than off the rack
