    @Stargazer haha oops.

    I think Lincoln has the goods to be a Super level first five and I prefer him to someone like Orbyn.

    Hopefully he can find a little more consistency in his game during this year’s Mitre 10 Cup to force selection into one of the five NZ conferences.

    Its not only his physical qualities. He also seems a bit too nice. Maybe a bit soft on the emotional front. Fakatava is the other extreme. Maybe a bit too cocky. But too cocky can be calmed down a bit. Its a good quality although can lead to problems if its not handled right. Emotional soft is another issue

        So who will they bring in? I hope we don’t persist with Orbyn Leger. Lincoln McClutchie might finally get a gig but I doubt it.

                              Surely it will be him as he's been with the squad. And started against the Chiefs at 1st. And I would give game time to Love at 1st next WE to see how he goes. But it will likely be Leger and JGB not Love.

                                Love is a 1st 5 who plays fullback while Leger is a 12/10 (in that order).

                                  @Winger why? Because he isn’t even a first five. I’d rather see Jordie get a shot at 10 than someone who isn’t even Super level, let alone a playmaker.

                                    @Winger Nothing against Leger but watching him play the first half against the Chiefs on Saturday I don’t think is a 10 sure he can be a stop game when required but not good enough to be one week in week out
