[QUOTE="ChiefsFan, post: 198337"] Agreed 100% Luckily I think Wayne Smith thinks the same way - he has often mentioned he sees Nonu as a midfielder (mainly at 12). I was really hopeing Masaga would be included to get him involved in the AB's environment...unfourtunately there are no Junior AB's this year so I think he will have to wait until the end of the year tour to be tested at a higher level... [/b][/quote] How come there won't be the JABs this year? [/b][/quote] The NZ Maoris are taking there place periodically in the Pacific Nations (or whatever it's called now...). I don't think it's a good idea. As racist as this might sound, we want the best players playing, not the ones with the most Maori 'heritage'. You don't see the Austrailian Aboriginees in the comp (do they exist?). All it means is that players like Masaga and possibly Donald aren't going to get a good chance to improve if they are left out of the ABs (in Masaga's case). [/QUOTE]
