[Bovidae]

@nostrildamus MSR needs to show that aggro on the field.

@frugby

You missed Blackadder a certainty.

If fit... the guy has been an injury magnet.

[george33]

@frugby Blackadder will b injured

Enough beating around the bush, here is Razor's first full squad:

Props:
Ethan de Groot
Tamaiti Williams
George Bower
Tyrel Lomax
Fletcher Newell
Pouri Rakete-Stones

Hookers:
Codie Taylor
Samisoni Taukei'aho
George Bell

Locks:
Scott Barrett
Josh Lord
Quinten Strange
Isaiah Walker-Leawere

Loose Forwards:
Ethan Blackadder
Samipeni Finau
Dalton Papalii
Devan Flanders
Ardie Savea (C)
Cullen Grace
Luke Jacobson

Halfbacks:
Cam Roigard
Folau Fakatava
Finlay Christie

First Fives:
Damian McKenzie
David Havili
Stephen Perofeta

Midfielders:
Jordie Barrett
Rieko Ioane
Anton Lienert-Brown
Dallas McLeod
Quinn Tupaea

Outside Backs:
Macca Springer
Mark Telea
Will Jordan
Emoni Narawa
Shaun Stevenson

Methinks, based on who I think will be available.

Will the first squad even be 36 men?

• Rakete-Stones, don't think so. Mafileo is someone they clearly like the look of.
• Walker-Leaware is just a worse version of Tupou Vaa'i
• Blackadder and Flanders, fair enough, particularly if Cane takes his sabbatical
• I'm not sold on Perofeta, I'd almost say Sullivan may be likely depending on which way round they play in SR
• Forgot about Tupaea, so agree there
• Stevenson will be an interesting one. Part of me wonder if the fact he will be 27 counts against him.

Has anyone seen the dates and venues for the England series

Hah go figure, I thought CH was making reference to the cantab posters bias

The bias that they don't have bias?

[Blunders]

@frugby Agreed hoping sullivan will get a chance at 10 for the Blues don't think Perofeta is good enough.

[African Monkey]

@Bones No never, Cantab posters are the most unbiased posters on here.....

[chchfanatic]

@African-Monkey we are indeed. It’s just too easy to wind you guys up. 7 titles in a row. What more can we say.

In typical NZR fashion we hear about them from the opposition first and dates/locations probably won't be out until next year

[African Monkey]

@chchfanatic Mate, it's an ABs thread, not a Crusaders wankathon thread haha.

Look forward, not back

13s: who is most likely competing with Rieko in 2024, Ennor?

On form Proctor (especially considering Ennor won't be playing for much of 2024 due to injury recovery)

[KiwiMurph]

One guy who is a bit of a forgotten man is TJ Perenara.

Not his biggest fan but I wonder if he's a chance if they are looking for experience in one of their 3 halfbacks with Smith and Weber gone.
