<p>Absolutely no chance at the moment. I think he may get a cameo at Fullback rather than a cameo at fist 5</p>

<p>How about a cameo at half back. He would have been pure in that position.</p> -

<p>He hasn't aged a bit.</p>

<p>With the stand in the background and the clothing indicating a "balmy" Christchurch March evening, I deduce its a typical day-night ODI at Lancaster Park in the mid 2000s. Let me guess - Flem got a 50 but didn't convert, Cairns was trying to convince Vincent to match-fix and Bond was injured. </p>

<p>Born in Invers but is secretly a Goron.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>His father played fullback for Southland and was an AB triallist. </p>

<p>I heard that Lydiate news from a workmate and Bovidae just confirmed it. So Wales' loose forward situation is looking pretty grim right? I'd be pleased to have any Taffs, and anyone up with the play, comment on this (or anyone with an ability to do internet research for that matter).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Telegraph website named these loose forwards as original selections for the tour:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>T Faletau (Newport Gwent Dragons), J King (Ospreys), D Lydiate (Ospreys), R Moriarty (Gloucester), J Turnbull (Cardiff Blues), S Warburton (Cardiff Blues, capt).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Take out Lydiate, and considering Warburton is still an injury concern I believe, then Wales is struggling. Lydiate started the England friendly at 7 I think, captaining the team. Seems Tipuric is also injured out of the series.</p> -
The AB brothers would make a good quiz, if you don't have one already <br><br>

<p>Wales running out of loose forwards, Gatland must look on the fact the ABs can leave out of their squad players of the quality of Brad Shields, Matt Todd and Steve Luatua with a lot of envy.</p> -

I don't think Gatland is concerning himself one bit with who was left out of the AB squad.
squad to tour New Zealand to replace the injured Dan Lydiate.</p>
