<p>Yeah. I'm concerend about the AB midfield. </p>

<p>We have Carter & McCaw covered but whoever fits into the 12/13 slots has a huge hole to fill.</p> -

Ma'a's pace has been unbelievable this year, the work he must have put in is amazing. I think high odds of Buckman wearing 12,11 or 14 at some point next year. -

Agree. Big ups to Nonu this year. He has really shown how important this was to him in his own way. <br>
On your second point I think that Fekitoa/Ngatai may be our natural Nonu/Smith replacements. -

Only like for like in that he is a strong runner. The rest of his game... not so much. He has the raw ingredients though, if he can put the same amount of work into his game that Nonu has he could be a fine All Black. -

<p>It's his guile and intelligent play as wellas his pace which has impressed me. this year. He's reall brought another dimension to his play this year.</p> -

He's a more powerful version of 2007 Nonu, might be a bit faster too. Worth getting into the AB coaches hands. -

Ha! Same here. Still on the couch nearly 8 hours after kickoff. Keep going to do something but keep watching replays and reading shit on the internet instead.
