And last years form loosehead from the NPC? No room for Mr T? And you seem to be forgetting that the thug is banned for the first match.

I'd have:

Taumeapou

Telefone

White

Mika

MacDonald

Collins

Braid

Kaino

Devine

Lavea

Ward

G Williams

Atiga

Howlett

Nacewa

With a bench of: Heard, Poching, B Williams, Haui? Baby Mealamu maybe?, Moa, Toe'ava , Koonwaiyou

Although, I have a strange feeling Lam will screw you over by putting Bryce Williams at lock and have MacDonald at 8 with Kaino on the bench. Stupid to make Collins captain.

A what about Waikato? Its hard to think which team they'd select. New coach, no hitouts against the Lions. I don't know if I'd even be able to think of a squad

Collins

Linklator

Manu

Gibbes

Hohneck

Messam

Couch

Bates

Duggen? Jeez, is he still there?

Donald

Korovata? I think thats what the fro'd Fijians name was

Hill

Lowen

Anesi

Chrichton
