Adjusted NZ Team

[Albeano]

I think that the selectors have chosen a pretty good squad appart from a few players who are probably not ready yet, and I doubt wether they will provide any impact.... so I have come together with a more solid looking team using the same players, but put in different positions....

1 David Vaealiki
2 Lesley Vainikolo
3 Nigel Vagana
4 Clinton Toopi
5 Francis Meli
6 Thomas Leuluai
7 Robbie Paul
8 Jerry Seuseu
9 Tevita Latu
10 Nathan Cayless
11 Tony Puletua
12 Ruben Wiki
13 Stephen Kearney

14 Sione Faumuina
15 Epalahame Lauaki
16 Joe Galavao
17 Jason Cayless

 

[In-goal]

it's a pitty hull didn't play last weekend as that would have freed up R.Swain and possibly forgoten hero Ritchie Barnett

 

[Matt M]

Barnett has retired from rep footy. I think the final side will be

1 Vagana
2 Vanikolo
3 Whatuira
4 Toopi
5 Meli
6 Paul
7 Leuluai
8 Cayless
9 Latu
10 Cayless
11 Gulavao
12 Puletua
13 Faumuina (can't see Wiki getting off)

14 Seuseu
15 Kearney
16 Williams
17 Pritchard

they said that if wiki does get suspended then kearney will start and either lauaki or pritchard will come on to the bench
