Blues 2021

@Bovidae 12 or 13. Isn't there a constant meme about how All Blacks wingers expire at 26? Doesn't have the skillset for 15 in union. I'd say 12 or 13, more likely 13.

@Yeetyaah Jason Robinson switched from RL to RU at a similar age, and continued to play wing or fullback. He and RTS are similar type players.

No AB's obviously. Interesting that they left out the next tier of loosies too. No Robinson, Hunt, Gibson
-
Who do you guys think MacDonald will select for the first game? I wonder if a few ABs will start from the bench? I'm assuming that Niuia, Vikena, Hunt, Faiane, and Narawa will be unavailable. Probably Gibson too.
Big calls at 12 and lock. I'll guess this XXIII:
1 Hodgman
2 Eklund
3 Laulala
4 Tuipulotu
5 Goodhue
6 Ioane
7 Papalii
8 Sotutu
9 Christie
10 Black
11 Clarke
12 Plummer
13 Ioane
14 Telea
15 Perofeta16 Tolai
17 Karl T
18 Ofa T
19 Cowley-Tuioti
20 Choat
21 Nock
22 Tele'a
23 Sullivan/LamNot sure all the ABs will be selected in round one, especially the loose forwards and maybe one of the props. Would like to see Ofa T start, as the Blues are his team. Akira Ioane or Sotutu to be subbed and the other two loose forwards to stay on the field. Hunt could've been handy as a turnover option in the early rounds. I'd prefer to have Nock and Pierce starting. Hope Plummer has improved his defence at 12!
