Speaking of props, has there been any word around the possibility of a Franks recall? I'd love to see it

Also:

Speaking of new caps... more breaking news for you...

Stuff understands Highlanders halfback Folau Fakatava will be named, while Blues duo Stephen Perofeta and Roger Tuivasa-Sheck will be there as well.

Not shocking that revelation, he probably guessed and hopes he's correct

Oh, we are in church apparantly, FFS.

[ACT Crusader]

@Kirwan they could still connect with the community but no need for the preacher

[Chris]

Youtube comments are not impressed with this.

This is why it's here:

These squad announcements have been taken around various venues in recent years. With the majority of players in last year’s squad identifying as Māori or Pasifika, the All Blacks wanted to do something which recognised how special how that culture is to their players and community.

Members of the community, school kids and former All Blacks have been invited along to show what the legacy of the jersey means and how important family and culture is.

What sort of self important fluffybunny of a coach would make it all about himself by dancing?
