    @crucial I think that comes very close, although I expect them to start S Barrett and name Vaa'i on the bench.

    That 20 jersey is probably the hardest to pick. No. 8 is for lack of a better option.

      @Crucial No Clarke due to sevens commitments in your team?

      I think Reece should be involved in the sevens. He is made for that.

        No Clarke because he is playing like a crippled donkey.

          If there's one non Sevens player I'd like to see play the Olympics it is DMac.

            Bad super form only affects you so far at AB selection table. If they think they'll get the players to rise to the occasion, it'll be on.

            Sotutu's form has been realllllly average this year, along with Akira. Even Ardie to 8 starts to look tempting

                  @mackerzzzz No love for Jacobson? Using only one 7 when we need to get some backup going there?

                  I would be looking at giving Boshier a run off the bench at some time and Sotutu needs to have some competition to see if that gets him out of his below 2020 performances.

                  I think Boshier has to be considered and Jacobson...would they be worried about his injury tendencies?
                  I read that he wants to concentrate on 8 (rugypass article)-sounds like a good idea to me, far more 6 contenders but I'd guess he'd want to put on some more kilos (if he is only about 107kgs)..

                    quick question, isn't one of the upcoming games a good idea to look at one of the younger locks not in serious/current AB contention?

                                    @Crucial No Clarke due to sevens commitments in your team?

                                    No Clarke because he is playing like a crippled donkey.

                                    Ma'a has entered the chat.

                                    Bad super form only affects you so far at AB selection table. If they think they'll get the players to rise to the occasion, it'll be on.

                                    Nonu had plenty of credit in the bank. Clarke has a couple of bucks.

                                    I think on the back of his performance vs the Highlanders he has to play. Although lester Fianganuku deserves a go as well.

                                        Given that he was already fit then that’s pretty damn fit indeed

                                          “I won’t be back to play any part in Super Rugby this year,” he said. “The final for the Top League is scheduled for May 22, and then with quarantine spots getting back to New Zealand isn’t too easy. I won’t be arriving back in New Zealand until about May 31, and then obviously having to quarantine for two weeks.”

                                          With that time line, he'll fit right in the Magpies squad for the Heartland-Ranfurly Shield defence at the end of June. Could be a great first hit-out for him back in NZ; and great for spectators at the ground and tv viewers.
