    The original loose forwards were:

    Du’Plessis Kirifi
    Peter Lakai
    Hoskins Sotutu
    Oliver Haig
    Christian Lio-Willie

    So need 2 or 3 replacements, particularly cover for 7 and 8.

    Possibilities include Segner, Choat, Iose, Christie, Grace, Withy.

    Delany can also play 6 and is probably the best suited out of that lot.

      Grace wasn't even good for the Canterbury bench.

      I'd go for Parker, Mathis, Segner, Iose or Suafoa.

      Mathis? Way, way too early. He would get monstered.

        I wouldn't select him but I had to add some Crusaders players in there. 😉

          TBF, not being good and Crusaders bench is not really a selection hurdle.

              Mathis is good enough for AB XV squad.

                    @brodean there are better wingers, and better opensides. Lets see him at Super with a gameplan built around his versatility first.

                        @Nepia he's not a Cantabrian though, so he doesn't have automatic rights to selection just yet.

                          Discussions arou dpotential injury replacements in teams like this are quite funny. There is nothing between the players and it is just about fans wanting their guys. Highlanders: withy or Broughton. Crusaders: anyone. Hurricanes: Delaney, Iose. Chiefs: Mathias, Parker Blues: Segner, Sufoa, Any of those options would be fine. Although, Mathias is an outrageous call. I reckon there is a chance no one will be called in and they just bring the non playing All Blacks down.

                            Personally, Highlanders fans tend to be the least bias, mostly because we're used to not having our guys in there anyway. We just want anyone but Crusaders, Blues, Canes, or Chiefs players.
