    Papalii obviously a loss for us but Choat is a quality back up at the same who will slot in nicely. A very underrated 7, similar to the Highlanders opensides funnily enough.

                  Fuck losing Dalton and Blackadder is not good for the ABs If Ioanes foot flares up our strength looks a bit bare.

                            TBH I'm not worried about not having Smith, we need to really blood more options and the ABs being forced to by injury might be the only way it happens. Three only thing is could see them being all conservative and mostly playing TJ in that case. Dalts should be first choice 7 going into RWC but that's really unlikely to happen now. I just hope cane can become crepid, he's the Manu of the ABs

                              Dalts is a bit injury prone aye. Hope he outgrows it.

                                if Smith is out, I have no doubt TJ will be starting or on the bench.

                                  Stuff understands the 24-year-old, 12-test All Black went down with appendicitis within 48 hours of Saturday night’s Eden Park clash, and could face several weeks off the field as part of his recovery.
