Chase Stanley

[Dragooner]

Stanley and Setu have played representitive footy at an under 19 level but as far as I am concerned, that means nothing really. They can still choose to play for the Kiwis.

I think that Rangi will play for NZ no questions asked!

 

[brendothejet]

Well Chase Stanley was drinking at the meridien the other night so that automatically qualifies him as a Kiwi - particularly seeing as he was also at hill st...

 

[doogiehowser_md]

Rangi Chase was picked in the kiwis squad last year but missed the final cut, so he should be in again this year. I also read in the Sunday Papers yesterday that kiwis coach Gary Kemble made a visit to Rangi Chase, Chase Stanley and Kris Inu to tell them they will be a part of the kiwis this year or next year. So fingers crossed it looks as though Stanley will be in the black & white.

We all know Rangi Chase is shoe-in for this years tour - surely. Betcha they'll use him as a halfback though. They are picking a squad of 25 players. He can play 6,7 or 9.

Stanley - who knows?? it could be worth while taking him on tour and playing in him in one game or so for the experience but at the same time it might be beneficial for Stanley to stay back and have a big offseason etc. I dare say they might have told him he's in their plans for the world cup etc.

Inu - well he a shoe-in for starting 13.

 

[mean_maori_mean]

Stanley, Setu and Florence are all eligible for both NZ and Oz.

In my opinion.

If all 3 reach international level (Stanley and Florence are shoe-ins) Stanley will choose Australia and NSW over NZ, Florence will play for Aus/NSW but I think Lagi would be a queenslander.

I''l go against that and say that both Stanley and 'Florence" will represent NZ.

News coming sounds good that both Stanley and 'Florence' will be representing NZ in the near future.

Well Darryl Halligan played international and you will see Luke Covell name added to the kiwi train on squad.

Nightingale mite be added to kiwis train on squad. There been a few injuries to kiwi outside backs.

Ellis if he gets some good game time next season will be up for selection.

 

[Dragooner]

Ellis is better than Woolford by a mile!!!

And is it just me or does Woolford choose the wrong option 99% of the time?

 

[KiWi_BoI_15]

Read in an article that new Kiwis Coach Gary Kemble has already approached some players in a visit to Australia last week, to inform Kiwi hopefuls that they are in the frame of selection if not this year definately next year. 3 big names that came out of those players were Rangi Chase, Isaac Luke and Chase Stanley.

Spot on there, Woolford was alright before he got injured but has been sh*t since.
The only thing he is good at is whinging to the ref and blowing up the younger players.

 

[SilverSteeler]

And I hope Rangi Chase gets a spot in the final 17 for the Kiwis. He might end up alongside his old mate Marshall in the halves.

Also I think Nightingale has potential to play for the Kiwis, not this year though.

lol he only played 2 games before he got injured! Call me crazy but I for one would love to see Woolford in the Red V next year.

 

[SilverSteeler]

Exactly!

He doesn't seem to fit in with the team for some reason. His defense is solid, always getting involved around the ruck and he provides experience.

But in attack he choses the wrong options, he provides no surprises for the opposing defense therefore they can act faster and shut down our attack.

Maybe it will take a full offseason to blend in with the team, I hope.

 

[Dragooner]

In attack, far too often, he'll be in dummy half, tackle 3, we have overlap down one side of the field, the crowds screaming to go right, but out of dummy half he pushes out to the left and plays a grubber through which goes dead in goal, and you think, wtf!?!?!?!?

That's hapened numerous occasions, and most of the time early in the set!!! (not tackles 4 or 5)

 

[Father Ted]

I think he's had a difficult year , injuries have prevented him from forming combinations with the rest of the team . He also has the distinction of being the only player I can remember to have his head split open by a linesmen .

 

[Dragooner]

:lol:

That happened right infront of me, was more funny seeing it live! :lol:

Why don't we have more touchys of that ability? :sarcasm:

 

[Dragooner]

Back to Chase, Rangi, Florence and Setu, when is the Kiwi's train-on squad named?

 

[SilverSteeler]

Looks like Stanley will be playing for the Kiwis
