Māori All Blacks to play Ireland?

I assume this squad will be named shortly. They've gained 2 halfbacks and a prop from the ABs, although Lomax was always at long odds to make the ABs. More importantly, that haven't lost a player as a bolter to the ABs.

They also got Norris at prop too.

I guess Ratima also misses out on this squad, which is a shame
Yeah, even if McMillan picks 3 halfbacks Ratima might be the one who misses out.

@Machpants I heard that the team would be named today. I was a bit surprised they didn't name the squad after the ABs squad was named.

@Bovidae They (MABs) never pick three halfbacks for just two games in NZ. One may be on stand-by, but not in the squad.
@Stargazer If they are taking these games seriously, which they will be, I would be picking a larger squad so all players are training together. There will be less disruption if there are injuries.

I think I heard it was tomorrow
edit: well and truly beaten to it

@Stargazer given I read the reason they chose the location of the announcement was a nod to the Maori and Pacific influence in our game.

I just read a post in the Stuff discussion that mentioned the MABs being named tomorrow.
Another day’s pay for the preacher then?

Only his pride.
I expect he'll be the captain now.

Someone's claiming a squad leak over on reddit.
Cameron Suafoa has Maori heritage? That might be BS.
