Highlanders v Waratahs
-
Highlanders assistant coach Riki Flutey and form midfielder Scott Gregory are both wary of the high-scoring Waratahs before their meeting in Dunedin on Saturday, a game they may need to win without the services of Shannon Frizell.
The All Blacks flanker left the field in the final seconds of the Highlanders’ win against the Rebels in Sydney on Sunday, and although it did not appear too serious Flutey said on Tuesday that Frizell’s availability was uncertain.
“Shannon injured his ankle from the kickoff [after the Rebels’ late try] so I’m not to sure where he is in and around that,” Flutey said.
The Highlanders are likely to give Frizell every chance to play, but the quick turnaround from Sunday’s game means they may have to shift Hugh Renton to No 6, with Kazuki Himeno starting in the No 8 jersey.Fullback/wing Sam Gilbert will be available for the Highlanders after missing the past two matches with a hamstring issue.

Just because your good in Super rugby does not mean your international material.

No point having two hot and cold midget Fijian wings in the team.
Maybe Nareki should sign for an Irish team and then rough up his missus to increase his AB chances?

I thought we judge new All Blacks on how they play for the All Blacks?
But potentially ones, yeah
