I feel like Numia was going to be picked and then he got that big injury with his calf.
And then it's just sort of taken a bit.
I really feel like the Hurricane Scrum is humming and Whoop has got them.
I don't think that's a fair question mark anymore.
I do actually think he warrants an opportunity at Test Match level.
And I think his game suits the style, the pace, the tempo that Dave Rennie and his coaching group will want.
And I think Norris' comeback, man, he looks a beast.
So, yeah, the only other one that is a potential is George Dyer.
You know, like if there's injuries to those sort of main three tight heads, like he puts in the yards, man.
He's a little bit of an unsung hero for the amount of minutes he plays and the damage he does up front.
Yeah, but I think to answer the question, I think it's a good thing because I think what we've seen with the success of South Africa
is the ability for them to play in different styles and i think although i think everyone well we assume how they'll dave rennie and his coaching group want to play i do think they want to innovate they want to be first they want to be different and you're going to need a range of players and and i think if you if you're so set on okay that's our 23 we can't do that
And so I think if we have this debate and we're not sure, one, I think we're not sure because this is a new coaching group, so we're not sure who they like yet.
But two, I think it would be more concerning if we were like, okay, this is the 23.
I love the debate because I genuinely, I obviously have strong opinions on certain things, but I can't, I literally, I've probably got about 48 names, and that's got to get down to 34.
They've been doing it.
It's just different.
So it used to be on the end-of-year tour, they've been doing it for all the home series.
So I think good examples are Pete Lakai.
He did that.
