Interesting Wellington going with the 10,15 playmakers, Also why is PUJ on the bench would rather he be playing 13 and Aso on the wing and Savea on the bench.

Where's the Waikato team? Should be named by now.
Waikato are always one of the slowest at naming. No one is worse than North Harbour though

Yeah, I was just going to mention NH, and they play tomorrow night.
Waikato tended to name their team the day before the game last season. Maybe tomorrow morning?

@mikey07 I'm excited to see Jules back! Would rather Proctor to the bench and PUJ starting though.
-
@Bones Yeah me 2 but Wondering how Jules match fitness is giving he’s only had 1 game in like 4 months.
-
Im wondering if the PUJ benching is a case of the ABs keeping him in cotton wool somewhat. Surely he's the guy they will bring in for Ennor and they probably dont want to see any more centres go down.

@Canes4life Wellington coach said the starting midfield got the nod because they started the preseason game together.

@Canes4life yet they let ALB & Goodhue play...think you might be reading a bit much into it, like @KiwiMurph says, the other mid-field has played together already.

@taniwharugby yeah fair call. Aslong as PUJ plays against Auckland the following week.

@Canes4life that would be the ideal plan, but Aso is a good player, and Proctor the next big thing isnt he

@taniwharugby let's just wait and see on that one.
Also, I wonder why Goosen hasn't been selected.

Another member of Ian Foster’s squad, hooker Dane Coles (calf), is several weeks away from a return while Hurricanes winger Wes Goosen is also sidelined with injury but expected back for next Sunday’s clash with Auckland.

@Bovidae unsure dude, I emailed them today about a membership but they said something about not allowing members to attend anyway so they advised me not to buy one. Idk it was weird and contradicting.
