Dagg back in black. Looking forward to Ardie let loose.

What happened to Dagg? I don't see any Super Rugby. He seemed to be tearing it up for years and then just disappeared.

The younger surveyor does look a handful from what I've seen too.

People figured out his goose step and that was his attacking game gone. His defence then regressed from being adequate to being poor again. Only thing really keeping him around was his kicking and catching abilities.

He seems, however, to have rediscovered how to run with the ball, so we'll see how he goes. Not sure about his defence, though.

Aren't the Canes a little under-represented there - esp. in the backs?? :evil:
If they're good enough to play at World Cups, why not in between?

No.

Perenara is injury cover on a 50/50 call. Barrett and Savea are in the squad. NMS would be in if fit.

Which other Canes back justifies selection?

Jane has been ok but not as good as Dagg and would be a backwards step.

Aso shows promise but is not the finished article and certainly not better than any player he could replace. Proctor isn't good enough. Laumape is a rookie. I think Halaholo has signed overseas.

I really don't get what you see in Li that ALL the other wingers in NZ don't have.

I've changed my mind. Sopoaga should start.

Is there a way of fitting Cane and Savea into the same 23. Either of them losing out would be pretty harsh. Obviously Cane is in poll position given his experience
I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed person.

NS. Gone but not forgotten.
