Monday onwards is going to so much fun on the fern,some meltdowns coming,
Goes without saying. Never going to please everyone. Don’t think there’s ever been an AB’s team named where people don’t complain….

which ins/outs do you reckon will light the biggest fuses?
The loose forwards,Locks and outside backs,will not please everyone on the fern.

To be fair, early Hansen era was utterly boring selections, with no real quibbles. Shows they were getting it right.

My source says no Finau, Blackadder in, no DMac, Havili in, no Proctor, McLeod in, no Tuipulotu, Hannah in.
Maybe

@Chris So you no the Squad them ?
Nope just rumours you only have to read some of the dribble on this thread to know some people are going to spit their dummies.
-
Care to post any rumours or are you just going to say "I knew that" once the squad is public?

Nice.
Our opponents will be expecting fast and explosive and instead they’ll get slower, steady and sometimes reliable. Genius coaching.

@Bones ya had me at the start, not gonna lie... but no Dmac was too obvious.
I knew it was BS when he didn't mention Blackadder at 10.

Lol imagine if this was our forward pack to face England in a few weeks. Full of x-factor, power and speed that lot.
- De Groot
- Taylor
- Newell
- Barrett
- Strange
- Blackadder
- Cane
- Grace

Could be maybe 50/50 though.
Nah I had to include one that was obviously wrong, otherwise what's the point in having such a reliable sauce?

McLeod over Proctor was a stretch aswell but I've seen crazier selections happen.

If there's 5 loosies and two of them are Ardie & Cane, there's only three places for SR players. If Blackadder takes up one of them then there's only two loosies with meaningful SR form
Remember when Canes fans were talking about how many loosies they were going to have in the squad? It could easily be zero from this years team

@Chris-B not sure if Devlin can be trusted in any way, his contact is himself most likely
That wouldn't surprise me in the least!

I think Scott is probably the favourite to get the job so it's probably not a bad call if you want to look "informed".

The meetings could be interesting if someone asks, ‘What do you think, Scott?’!

I wouldn’t laugh too much, I reckon about half of them are absolute shoe ins
