The trouble with NZ is that unlike India, OZ, etc, our domestic competition is pretty average. As a result young players dont typically get high level of competition. Therefore its quite uncommon for NZ to bring in young fullahs like Inida do because they simply havent gotten up to speed yet, they tend as a result to mostly come through in their mid 20s. That said there is some pretty good talent coming through. Expect to see the following guys around and in the Black Caps for the next decade (bolded guys are the ones I think will be really good):
Glenn Phillips (22)
Seifert (24)
Chapman (25)
Will Young (25)
Tickner (25)
Sodhi (26)
Tom Bruce (27)
Santner (27)
I am sure we have a few South African players who haven't arrived in the country yet that will be good for us
Fucking work after 4 hours sleep sucks and will probably be like this on Monday morning as well. Worth it all though, I barely watched Origin since I didn't want to miss a wicket.

As said, Nicholls innings v India was very under-rated, Laid the platform for the rest of the team to kick on to a winning total. He is class too and people forget he was actually the incumbent before his injury.
I've got faith in these two...
Nicholls didn’t field because of a hand injury so would be touch and go for the final you would say.
Still absolutely pumped still from the win, was a nervous wreck for most of it.

I must say Welch and Ofa are definitely Origin stars of the future. Both were massive for us last night in there stints. To be honest I think Fifita needs more time. He was freshest on the field and very lazy on that Cook from dummy half try. Just let him run right past him. Norman looked very comfortable. We really need to lock down our back 2,3,4,5. Lots of good signs ahead. Walters knocks down any connection to the Titans also and will full fill the rest of his contract (2 more years)

DCE is far an above the best league player st being interviewed. Speaks well, doesn’t throw out cheap didnit for the boys, game of two halves bullshit. Sticks his neck out, owns losses remains positive.
James graham is pretty good too. Some of the others are such garbage.

DCE has improved a lot, he used to come across as really fake earlier in his career.

I have always said DCE is a great public speaker!! speaks very well. Doesn't stutter or mumble and is very intelligent. Reminds me of Lebron.

Kinda thought lowe would stand up. That last year the cowboys made the GF, he was like the form edge forward of the comp.

No one has really mentioned Lowe's efforts! Was a very late call up into the starting side. Got through 52 tackles and 14 runs, showed plenty of experience nailing the conversion in pressure timing! Plus that charge down and regather nearly won us the game. Might have made that spot his own.

Yes, if he keeps playing at fullback he's on track to become a dual-position player when the next player updates kick in after round 18. - LS re: Milford
