I did think withy and Taylor would be in the squad
Also fakatava
Happy with most of the backs except I’m surprised with McLeod and fihaki who I personally think are extremely lucky.
Etene nanai setoru and Daniel Rona I think are more deserving of a place
I think cane deserves a rest and have savea,Ioane and sotutu starting in the back row
45-21 was final score to all black xv over Uruguay
Faketava is a hell of a player,everything he did was top class,all black in waiting that’s for sure
@taniwharugby well deserved in my opinion,been very consistent and think he offers more than George bridge
Wow. Big surprise for me is no hodgeman ,pita gus sawakula and no umaga jenson brothers .
Also I like the fact that Levi aumua is picked ,I’ve been very impressed with him and Ruben love is going to be some player
Finau has to play at 6 and hopefully tuipolotu is back
Aj lam I would add to that list
Love to see Lucas Casey get a shot ,I know it’s early days but he seems the best bet at 7 for all blacks
I’m thinking tangitau and pledger should be looked at next year also iose if he keeps his form up
Got to say it’s the best I’ve seen josh goodhue play,he was into everything. Close behind I thought was Sam nock who has impressed this season
For otago I thought josh timu and umaga jenson both played very well and nareki looked very dangerous
Suprised no Kara pryer as I think he been playing really well
@victor-meldrew would like to see more of Peter umaga jenson aswell

@broughie said in Wales v All Blacks 30th Oct NH Tour:
@sparky But we need a 2nd five and Goodhue has played center mainly for the AB’s so who will he displace?. We need a genuine 2nd 5. Goodhue might not be any where near the player he was before. He was beaten for pace at center prior to his injury.
I know I’ve said this before but Peter umaga jenson should be in the squad in my opinion. Has the size and pace and runs nice lines
Taniela telea maybe? I like what he brings to the table
Akira has to start at 6 and whitelock back at lock and fainganuku out completely for Will Jordan and mounga for Barrett
Could be the worst looking crusaders team I’ve ever seen!
No idea what to do when they get the ball,
Way they are looking maybe go all super rugby season without getting a win
Hastie has really impressed me this season. Never really thought much of him before
A Georgian ref next game I see
