@sparky Well both articles - especially Razor - are bloody good news for NZ. Change to hear some good news rather than who is departing!

[Machpants]

Betcha there's a ABs coaching get out clause! Probably not needed, I guess.

I wonder if he's had the quiet word that overseas coaching experience not essential anymore for ABs coach. Or maybe encouragement for an assistant spot

[Stargazer]

Now it's official: Squire is going to NTT Docomo Red Hurricanes. He has signed with the club for 2 seasons.

Hopefully they don't have to pick him for the world cup.

[African Monkey]

Are they gonna treat him like Piutau?

[Bones]

Yeah the selectors seem to like him but to most on the outside he doesn't really seem to have pressed his case. Could be a big year for Hemopo and Frizzell. Wonder who the reserve is after them that is already ahead of Akira?

[Stargazer]

@African-Monkey They wouldn't be able to pick a lot of players for the RWC, if they refused to select any All Black going overseas, including Read, Franks and BFA. From what I've read, even Taufua is still in the picture.

ah right. didn't read the details.

sick burn though bro.

[African Monkey]

@Bones Elliot Dixon is still around.

[Bones]

@African-Monkey shit the forgotten man. Probably not really reservey enough.

[African Monkey]

@Stargazer I know haha I was taking the piss a bit with that comment but yeah, they were harsh towards Piutau in 2015 not that it really matters now or back in 2015 for that matter.

[African Monkey]

@Bones too reservey?

He's started way too many s12 games.

[gt12]

Frizzel moved some bodies and was very direct when he came on last week. I hope he gets a few more starts - he could give Squire a real run for the 6 jersey.

[Duluth]

@gt12 he was much better than Hemopo

[gt12]

@Duluth

It was noticeable wasn’t it? I think Hemopo was quiet in comparison to what he can do, but I wonder whether he’s had much time at 6 and is really comfortable there?

The next 6 replacement on the Highlanders bench.
