        You can also see who the AB selectors want to look at, even if they have had minimal playing time in SRA. TTT, for example.

        A number of players were unavailable for selection due to injury, including 2019 All Blacks Dane Coles, Scott Barrett, Sam Cane and Ngani Laumape.
        

        I'd like to see a full list as the likes of Robinson, Jacobson and Grace aren't selected either.

            TTT, Vaii'i and Selby-Rickit are massive bolters. The rest of the selections are about as expected.

            Bryn Hall, Otere Black and GCT should be involved in this game. Do the selectors have a problem with from North Harbour?

            I assume D Mac and TJP are First Five cover for NI.

              At the risk of boobooing T-cube is back!

              Is that a fuck you to Gats? Or did we ever find out if he'd been injured?

                @booboo If BOP published their club team lists we'd know if TTT had been playing for his Rotorua club.

                  that pack that Tim picked for the North is a fucking bash-a-thon. Good luck on the hit-ups South

                        yeah, those boys looked awesome folding Crusaders forwards like laundry a couple of weeks back.

                        suddenly i am quite excited by this game.

                          South have a huge advantage in the backs: except for Jordie, the likely starters all play for the same SR franchise and their combinations should work better. It's an important reason why I'd put Weber on the bench and start Drummond.

                            Pretty good selections for an interesting match. Not sure how TTT gets in ahead of Booth and Hall, and Tomkinson ahead of Collins, but those only minor things. Will be interesting to see how the less experienced locks shape up!

                              @Canes4life Ioane listed as a midfielder, so you'll need to rijig the North line up

                                Can only assume that TTT was always a Foster project and he wants to see him back playing at a higher level.
                                I thought he played well in his few short showings but must be offside with the Chiefs coaches for some reason

                                  fark are you serious he was bloody awful in his few mins - which is harsh as someone is always going to struggle in 10 mins trying to make an impact.. didnt someone put up some stats last time he was on he missed like 3 tackles and threw an intercept in a very short period of time? Struggling to recall - trying to remove all memory of this season....

                                    He was bad against the Landers, after being good against the Canes, but I think he only got on the field twice.

                                    Canes (15 mins) : 23 passes, 3 runs, 2 clean breaks, 44 metres, 1 offload, 1 tackle made (no misses)

                                        "Sam Cane hasn't really started going through the return to play protocols from a training perspective because his team has disassembled so he's been taking some time," Foster said on Tuesday as the respective North and South squads were named. "He's looking really good, getting better each day, so we're hopeful that won't take too long but it's more of a precautionary thing now."

                                          Is this game a bonus of COVID and means little other than filling the vacuum of no test rugby? It's not an All Black trial is it? I mean they know who's in the team for the AB's already don't they?
