If i have to select an All Black team right now from the current available NZ players in the Super 14 comp, this would be the 15 running out onto the grd, based on current form (not on experience or last yrs AB's)
15 Fullback Isaia Toeava or Cory Jane
14 Wing Joe Rokocoko
13 Center Conrad Smith
12 2nd 5 Benson Stanley or Ma'a Nonu
11 Wing Rudi Wulf
10 1st 5 Dan Carter
9 1/2 back Alby Mathewson or Brendon Leonard
8 Keiran Read or Viliami Ma’afu
7 Richie McCaw
6 Jerome Kaino
5 Sam Whitelock or Jeremy Thrush or Chris Jack
4 Brad Thorn
3 Owen Franks
2 Keven Mealamu
1 Tony Woodcock
Now, you'd have to say that there are a number of players out with injury, which would change things somewhat, such as the following;
Tom Donnelly -lock
Anthony Boric -lock
Mils Muliaina -Fullback
Andrew Hore -hooker
Sitiveni Sivivatu -wing
Ali Williams -Lock
To name a few.... And of course they are subs. With a few above players to come back, i'd expect my team to change. Maybe I'll revise it closer to the test season?
