    Definitely Ainsley over Jager.

    Dickson and Hicks worth a look?

    Nankivell could probably do the Havili role better than Havili at the moment...

      How about we go all 1986 and declare this lot in SA at the moment the Cavaliers. Meanwhile we put together a Baby Blacks back home then join a handful from the Cavs back in for the rest of the tear.

      Who is the squad once the dead wood is cut and we jump the backups right into the fresh stuff? No pressure to win immediately but to sweep the room and rebuild.

      DeGroot
      Ross
      Bower
      ST
      McAlister
      AN Hooker
      Jager
      Williams
      Newell
      Vai'i
      Gardiner
      McWhannell
      Grace
      Blackadder
      Mikaili-Tu'u
      Savea
      Plumtree
      Papali'i
      Ratima
      Fakatava
      Perofeta
      Z Sullivan
      Tupaea
      R Ioane
      Jordan
      ....

      Plenty of gaps to fill.

      @Crucial when you mention Gardner do you mean Dom Gardiner from the crusaders😳

              That's a tough one, the Irish guy or the NZer who chose Oz.

                no

                THe NZRU has now banned most of the AB squad for being shit. In order to meet our test match obligations new players must be found. new players who will go on to revolutionise rugby and win the world cup next year

                              A winger that rips into everything, makes great decisions and very few mistakes?

                              Back 3 of him, Perofuture and Reece would be tasty.

                                    @Crucial he reminds me of if Scott Gregory was a loose forward.. 😅 hopefully Dom can prove me wrong! The more good young players coming through the better

                                      I thought that the concept was easy to understand.
                                      Not a second XV. Not necessarily players that would be next cab in a spate of injuries and also not necessarily the U20s.
                                      Add to those current ABs that are doing Ok a bunch of fresh faces with high ceilings and accelerate their progress.
                                      The likes of Zarn Sullivan as example. Anyone with half a brain can see the talent and time on ball this guy has. Instead of making him wait, chuck him in the pool now.
                                      There’s quite a few like him if you look around.
                                      Our seconds are seconds mostly because they aren’t even as good as the current mob and probably never will be.
                                      Let’s get the future a head start.
