[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 325242, member: 24910"] He has enough time to make the RWC squad (assuming he's good enough) - he will play in the NPC for Canterbury (starting at the end of next month) and if he plays well they will take him on the end of year tour to the Northern Hemisphere. Playing for Canterbury and the Crusaders is probably the best way to get him up to speed with NZ rugby quickly. In understand he has been playing mainly at 12 for his French club. He could potentially play 12 for Canterbury along side Fruean in the Canterbury and Crusaders midfield - that would be a huge (and very talented) midfied, but I do wonder whether these two players would gel together, as they are quite similar players. During the NPC he may play a bit at 13 with someone like Crotty, Brett, or Bleyendaal inside him, to see how he goes in that position. [/QUOTE]
