Here's the Chiefs mans take incoming. There's no way McKenzie doesn't start.
We are short on halfbacks.
this thread just went into the toilet

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

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.

@stargazer fuck that'd be cool to so Guzzler play in the NPC.
-
Might be off topic but what do we think the chances are of having North vs South again this year?
@yeetyaah maybe a N v S of those not in the SRTT final?

@machpants I only mentioned the Heartland-Ranfurly Shield game between the Magpies and a Heartland team, which will normally be end of June. NPC will probably start in August, so it will depend on whether ABs selected for the Bledisloe Cup and TRC will be released. They've done it before, so it could happen, but it's a different time/situation to that Heartland-Ranfurly Shield game.
-
If the ABs are going to do a bolter or an apprentice this year then look no further than De Groot imho.
-
Is Parkinson out for the season or will he be fit to play in the TT competition ? His size could be useful for the ABs, particularly for clearing bodies in the rucks.
-
Given the first few games are likely to be a big factor in Fozzies future as AB coach, I'm not sure hevis gonna stay too far from what he knows, we saw that last year and the fact there was little freshness to the squad or the game plan

@mn5 if you watched a game now an again, you'd realise that statement is so 90s.
Its 2021 that's 30 years ago... most/some of us were not even born then

Not sure you have a good grasp on the Fern demographic

@yeetyaah they should be doing this every year. That game last year was probably the game of the season.
