@Canes4life said in All Blacks 2024:

@Winger if given enough opportunity I'm picking Higgins to make a strong push for that AB 12 jersey over the next few years. It's pretty obvious he's a classy player with a high skill set but he also has the size to be an international class 12 aswell.

He may have to leave the Canes to achieve that, it maybe hard with the game time he gets.

@cgrant Selby-rickit is coming off a great npc season but is yet to stamp his mark at super level

Selby-rickit

I don't want to dredge up old stories but I have just been reading that court case and while I don't obviously get the full story and the victim sounds too pissed at the time to know himself the whole story, the guy sounds like he has a serious aggro problem. A shame if so, he seems talented.

13s: who is most likely competing with Rieko in 2024, Ennor?

Put Beauden at 10

@Kiwiwomble he's coming back sooner than later

[george33]

@nostrildamus think no one really

[Bovidae]

@nostrildamus MSR needs to show that aggro on the field.

@frugby

You missed Blackadder a certainty.

If fit... the guy has been an injury magnet.

[george33]

@frugby Blackadder will b injured

Enough beating around the bush, here is Razor's first full squad:

Props:
Ethan de Groot
Tamaiti Williams
George Bower
Tyrel Lomax
Fletcher Newell
Pouri Rakete-Stones

Hookers:
Codie Taylor
Samisoni Taukei'aho
George Bell

Locks:
Scott Barrett
Josh Lord
Quinten Strange
Isaiah Walker-Leawere

Loose Forwards:
Ethan Blackadder
Samipeni Finau

Devan Flanders
Ardie Savea (C)
Cullen Grace
Luke Jacobson

Halfbacks:
Cam Roigard
Folau Fakatava
Finlay Christie

First Fives:
Damian McKenzie
David Havili

Midfielders:
Jordie Barrett
Rieko Ioane
Anton Lienert-Brown
Dallas McLeod
Quinn Tupaea

Outside Backs:
Macca Springer
Mark Telea
Will Jordan
Emoni Narawa
Shaun Stevenson

Methinks, based on who I think will be available.

Will the first squad even be 36 men?

• Rakete-Stones, don't think so. Mafileo is someone they clearly like the look of.
• Walker-Leaware is just a worse version of Tupou Vaa'i
• Blackadder and Flanders, fair enough, particularly if Cane takes his sabbatical
• I'm not sold on Perofeta, I'd almost say Sullivan may be likely depending on which way round they play in SR
• Forgot about Tupaea, so agree there
• Stevenson will be an interesting one. Part of me wonder if the fact he will be 27 counts against him.

The bias that they don't have bias?

@frugby Agreed hoping sullivan will get a chance at 10 for the Blues don't think Perofeta is good enough.
