[QUOTE="Umaga's Witness, post: 1090492, member: 65365"] [USER=45355]@Kiwiwomble[/USER] as the thread starter, I wonder if you are able to edit the tile of the thread to all blacks 2021/22? Was just reading some articles in all blacks.com that give some taste of what we might see in terms of selection. Foster says he isn’t excited about jordies move to 12, no surprises there but I had hoped he would have become more flexible in his thinking. Foster says their focus will be on passing skills, but he also said they’d have to think about the length of their passes as we’d been getting caught out with our long passes. Not sure whether the latter point affects selection or not. He also said of rts that he was tracking well but they were hopping to see more of his passing and kicking game. He also said rieko had shown last year that he is a centre, not just a wing trying to play centre, and that he had been playing well this season. So what does that mean? My guess is goodhue starts at 12 with ione at centre. Will be interesting to watch the passing of rts and tupaea in these finals games. Havili to me is a very good player but I personally don’t see him forming a good combo with any of our 13 options (with the possible exception of an umaga jensen, but I don’t think they will be considered). However, if the focus is on passing, you’d have to say havili is in the mix. Ennor too. Foster hasn’t said anything about needing someone to make gainline (unless I forgot, I did read these articles yesterday), like the rest of the world has been thinking we need. [/QUOTE]
