@mariner4life That'll probably be the side they'll go with, maybe with Blackadder and Frizzell fighting it out for the 6 jersey.

My expectations for the ABs could be lower coming into the 2023 RWC than any other RWC ever

@Yeahtheboys rough! Didn't think Brown, Burke, Havili and especially Gilbert had been bad this season. I'd take any of them over Hunt 😭

Bones

@Yeahtheboys and I wouldn't cringe as much seeing Romano as I would Caird!

kiwi_expat

Bower, Taylor, Laulala, B.Evans, Blackwell, Princep, Christie, Grace, Drummond, Burke, Ennor, Havili, Goodhue, Dawai, Bridge.

Reserves: Brewis, McAlister, T.Mafileo, D.Gardiner, Princep, TTT/Hall, McLeod, Hickey.

Razor must be a goddamn supercoach for maintaining a 'greater than the sum of their parts' Crusaders, look at all that Red & Black mediocrity.
