    Jeepers! set piece is terrible!!!!! It does not look like much of a squad. I know a few more players possible but on that performance will struggle to make out of pool against NH/Sth Africa. Obviously want them to succeed but did not look good.

            You'd have to assume that the delay is due to injury concerns over a number of players who weren't involved in the two games against Aust.

              @Bovidae Yeah, or new injuries, whether they played against Australia, or not.

                  Finn Hurley dropped. Thought he was quite tidy in the first game.

                      I am surprised that Essendon Tuitupou missed out, as I had thought he and Leo Gordon would be the midfielders (having also played for the Blues U20s and NZ U19s together).

                      The tight five will still be an issue. A year too early for a couple of them IMO.

                              A couple of the Chiefs U20 players (Cody Nordstrom, Fiti Sa) who were listed as injured, therefore not available for selection, are playing club rugby tomorrow, so their injuries can't have been too serious.

                                    They've finally updated the photos for the player profiles of the current squad, well most of them, but still no information about DOB, height, weight etc. Lazy.

                                      @Bovidae if you go to the following link it’s got all information for every player in NZ including some who are playing overseas now, aswell as all the current Under 20s. Stats seem pretty accurate:
