[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 526259, member: 24910"] [URL="http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/all-blacks/7710445/Beauden-Barrett-makes-All-Blacks-touring-squad"][B]AB's touring squad:[/B][/URL][I] Forwards[/I]: Andrew Hore, Kevin Mealamu, Charlie Faumuina, Ben Franks, Owen Franks, Tony Woodcock, Brodie Retallick, Luke Romano, Sam Whitelock, Sam Cane, Richie McCaw (c), Liam Messam, Kieran Read, Adam Thomson, Victor Vito. [I]Backs[/I]: Aaron Smith, Piri Weepu, Beauden Barrett, Daniel Carter, Aaron Cruden, Tamati Ellison, Ma'a Nonu, Conrad Smith, Israel Dagg, Hosea Gear, Cory Jane, Ben Smith, Julian Savea. No major injury concerns, though the fact that Beauden Barrett has been included is an indication that Carter isn't yet 100%. Assuming Carter is fit I predict we will see a 22 something along the lines of: Woodcock, Mealamu, O Franks, Romano, Whitelock, Messam, McCaw, Read, A Smith, Carter, Savea, Nonu, C Smith, Jane, Dagg. [I]Reserves:[/I] Hore, Faumuina, Retallick, Vito, Weepu, Cruden, B Smith. The biggest selection issues for me would be the locks (personally I would start Retallick), hooker (as this is a 50:50 choice in my opinion), and the left wing spot, where Savea, Gear, and possibly even Ben Smith are options.
