Kyle Lovett and Brendan Santi must be unlucky not to have made the team

Big wraps on Watene-Zelezniak, Cornish and Lichaa. Don't think any of them have received the coverage of Brooks though.

Thought lichaa would have debuted this year. Having 2 hookers in your 17 who play the exact same role kinda defeats the purpose. Degois/lichaa is a better combination

Cornish over langi… surely?

Also, too bad none of Brown, Lovett or Santi got the inclusion.

Very surprised with some of these selections.
Santi unlucky not to grab the lock spot.
Surprised no dogs players made the side.
Think Templeton and Moss unlucky not to be named ahead of Ahearn.
Always going to be difference of opinion on these type teams but I reckon they get caught up with reputation for these sides, Lichaa was down on form a few others I think on performance alone would be over shadowed by those out of the side.
Glad they went Langi over the much hyped Cornish (who was good) as he was outstanding
