Test Match - Matai

[Chip and Chase]

Just reading the teams in the paper today and I see Shoulders missed out on a NZ call up. Is he injured ? Can't believe they'd pick Brown or Beale over him on form alone.

Injured

 

[Volley]

Booked in for surgery.

 

[Chip and Chase]

Shoulder / neck by any chance ?

 

[Jethro]

Yes C&C, his shoulder / neck. I believe what volley has written in his post to be correct (if you can believe what you read in the papers) that he is booked in for surgery.

 

[castle eagle]

fine by me, ready for next year!

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

Every centre picked for the kiwis has pulled out so far

 

[eagles2win]

Everyone's forgetting about our other international Vic Mauro who's playing for Italy this weekend

 

[Dan]

He should give them the finger for picking manuring over him earlier in the year

 

[Ian Martin tragic]

Matai will be riding one of those old folks mobiles around the footpaths by the time he retires. Major neck surgery every off-season. rest your broken body bud, we need you next year.

 

[Fro]

who says its major??

could be just a cleanout.

 

[Ryan]

Yuck ! Imagine know your getting "clean-up" surgery year after year.

Sterlo said in the call he was "unavailable".........have a rest mate, gonna be a big year, next year
