Yeah would like to see Lam
We know that we'll only see him if injuries appear.
It's been our best selector this year.
Jordie won't play
So Havili to the bench.

Please please gives some guys a chance. If Love isn’t in the 23 (ideally in the starting XV) then what’s the point?

@Bones said in New Zealand v Italy:
I bet they still ignore Proctor.
Given he’s no longer in the squad I’d say you’re right.

It's only Italy. I'd like to see either Perofeta, Plummer, or both get a run at 10

Lam replaced Plummer in the squad - Plummer picked up a leg injury
I would like to see Lam get some burn. He can cover midfield and wing

You pick your best side otherwise like others who’ve underestimated Italy you could be wearing egg

We don't want to fall into the Fozzie trap of flooding the team with newbies. But I would like to see at least a couple of the fringe players getting a run

Outside of injury they should be riding the pine desperate to get on

Disgraceful.

I am happy to give Lam a crack, but long-term I’m not sure he is the answer. Good player, but not really what we need at 12… another outside back. Need a good hard runner, who can distribute. Despite the criticism, the ABs were massively worse after taking J Barrett off

That's exactly what Lam is.
He did that during SR. For what it's worth....

He did it more recently than that.

Not sure it was a choice

@Bones said in New Zealand v Italy:
Real shame ENS got injured, he's accurate and well rounded, could go great guns at test level. Fihaki is unexplainable.
Yeah he's even luckier than Havili.
He's still in the squad isn't he? Or will Tele'a be fit?
The update said Plummers injury was minor leg injury. Will Lam be retained?

AJ LamThe starting midfield has a bit of a tang to it.
