No BROWN ..........................at the moment

Butcher,what team would you go with?

I think the team picks itself for the most part. If Rangi is fit he should be in. If there's any doubt over fitness then he should be left out for the more important fixtures coming up. If we have feelings of wanting to win this one then we have a higher percentage chance to do so with him on the field.

Regardless of who plays I see this fixture as a way to right the wrongs of last week, regardless of the ultimate result. I can see Watson and Sheens wanting very specific things to improve and show commitment on.

For me, commitment and effort are more important than the overall result. Building confidence and cohesion for the second part of the season will be crucial.

Why no Hauraki, anyone know?
