Yes most of the best Kiwis are with Bradford but you guys would be pleasantly suprised to see how good Willie Poching is these days.

Smith could prove useful. He made the Team of the Year, didn't he? Poching was damn good in the matches I saw him play, but NZ really need some halves. Their threequarter line is infinitely better than the current Aussie one, and their forward pack's probably on a par with it.
