Jeez that's rough on Otago.

@reprobate those 3 Waikato players being released was always going to happen good for them, although seeing as tho one reserve prop Tosi is released this weekend I wonder why Bower isn't?

[frugby]

@Grooter The only thing I can come up with, is they think Otago are bound for the semis, so Bower will get another game, whereas they want Tosi to get a game in.

Did you watch the Shield game vs Southland? The 3 of them were fucking shocking.

Waikato have had mixed results with the ABs. Terrible (Southland) and above average ( Ta$man). I am assuming G Wrampling is out with HIA so ALB can slot into 2nd 5. Finau to start at lock again, and Jacobson at 6.

Possible, but Mitch is the co-captain and has played fairly well when on the field. Eti has played big minutes for a 20-yr old who wasn't in the original squad so moving him back to the bench seems the best option. Then it is about the loose forward mix.

Razor's gone native!

It's why we've got all these bloody Chiefs players in the ABs and now he's boosting those central North Island swamp provinces!

Finlay Christie not released to Ta$man - presumably soon on a plane to Europe.
