Re: 2024 All Blacks

Is Dalton Papali'i really Cane's successor at openside? I've never been convinced that he's a test starter, tbh. Assuming Razor goes with someone like Finau, Akira or Grace at blindside, I think I'd prefer Ardie to move back to 7 and Sotutu to start at 8, and keep Papali'i on the bench. Not really ...

Good luck to Cane... he was always battling with being in the shadow of McCaw really and must have done it tough with some of the negativity thrown his way.
