The All Blacks announced a squad of 25 (excluding Crusaders players) for the upcoming June tests. It seems Masaga still has a lot more to do (score at least 28 tries in the Super 14) for him to be rewarded the All Black jersey by Henry. Instead the unfancied Rudi Wulf seems to have taken his place.
Intereseingly, here is what Henry said about Jerry Collins, "......All Blacks coach Graham Henry has said the recently retired Jerry Collins wouldn’t have made his training group.I think it’s the correct decision [for Collins to retire],” said Henry.
“He wouldn’t have got in the All Blacks in this first selection anyway. His form had wavered and he’d be the first to agree with that.”........."
Come on Henry, those are pure and juicy sour grapes.............
Nway, here is the New Zealand training squad – John Afoa, Anthony Boric, Daniel Braid, Jimmy Cowan, Stephen Donald, Tom Donnelly, Andrew Hore, Richard Kahui, Jerome Kaino, Sione Lauaki, Brendon Leonard, Keven Mealamu, Mils Muliaina, Ma’a Nonu, Kevin O’Neill, John Schwalger, Sitiveni Sivivatu, Conrad Smith, Rodney So’oialo, Adam Thomson, Neemia Tialata, Anthony Tuitavake, Paul Williams, Tony Woodcock, Rudi Wulf.
