[QUOTE="Ali's Choice, post: 404768, member: 51424"] Yeah, I agree that all the positions you mentioned will be close calls. I think Jane will be in the mix because he's been a very good player for the ABs over the past couple of seasons. Gear v Sivi is a tough call, but I think Henry realises that his backline was much more potent with a genuine finisher on his left wing on last year's EOYT. In saying that, Sivivatu is arguably in better form and I wouldn't be at all surprised if Sitiveni gets the nod. Graham Henry has generally picked Sivivatu when he has been fit to play. As for Ben Franks vs Afoa, I think Franks will get the nod because of his defensive workrate and superior S15 form. And whilst they are pretty even as tightheads, I think Ben is a slightly better LH.
