ALL BLACKS SQUAD for SOUTH AFRICA: Who Plays Fullback? Kirifi & Hotham Unlucky

The All Blacks squad to tour South Africa is out and the boys have
questions. Seven wingers but no out-and-out fullback, only three
halfbacks, five injury-prone locks, and Damian McKenzie named at
first five but destined for the back field. Justin Marshall and
Kieran Read drop into what it's actually like touring the Republic:
altitude, boot parties, beer cans at the bus, and why four Tests in
a row is like playing four finals. Plus: Ethan Blackadder back from
the wilderness, how to build the loose trio around Ardie Savea, the
unlucky ones (Du'Plessis Kirifi, Noah Hotham), what happens if
Richie Mo'unga gets the call, and how you even prep a squad for
games every three days. ───────────────────────────── CHAPTERS
