    The weakest front row and loose forward selections I have seen in an All Blacks squad for a long time.

      Have you watched any Blues games this season? Paps, Sotutu and Ioane have almost the perfect mix and synergy and I would be over the moon to have them in the AB's.

        We in pretty good spot when those omissions are made and not really too much argument I think

              He's hardly the only one with a mullet. The blond noodles have long gone.

                  @Tim have to assume they expect him back in time, otherwise they'd have gone for TJ or Webber for thier, erm, experience...

                    When does Tu’inukuafe's NZR contract finish? He might only be around for the Irish series before having to go to Montpellier.

                      @Bovidae According to Planet Rugby, he'll join Montpellier on or after 1 October. Haven't seen his signing confirmed in an official press release from Montpellier. Other news articles say "after completing the Rugby Championship".

                                adding cloud over the halfback group is the fitness of test centurion Aaron Smith, who is battling a groin injury ahead of the first Irish test at Eden Park on July 2.

                                “We hope so,” Foster said of Smith’s first test availability before revealing that star fullback Jordie Barrett is also in doubt due to a knee injury.

                                  “We’re not sure at the moment, his groin is still a bit niggly. The two guys at the moment, him and Jordie, are both a bit 50-50 but we won’t know for sure until we get our hands on them.”

                                      LOL. No one on here got remotely close to picking that squad.

                                      How on earth Karl T makes the cut I don’t know. But fair play to foster for dropping out of form players.

                                        Can't help but feel for Hodgeman and Robinson during that.
