ABs set for Read boost

ABs set for Read boost

10 Aug 2012

Kieran Read is confident that he’ll recover from his rib injury in time for the All Blacks’ Rugby Championship opener against the Wallabies next Saturday.

The No 8 missed the Crusaders’ final three matches of their Super Rugby campaign because rib damaged cartilage. However, he confirmed that he should be fit as he joined his All Black team-mates at training in Waitakere on Friday.

‘They’re [the ribs] feeling really good, I haven’t pushed them yet and not a lot of contact, so I’ll just have to see how they pull up next week but feeling really good at the moment,’ Read told the media.

Lock Luke Romano is still an injury concern as he hurt his shoulder in the Super Rugby semi-final. Head coach Steve Hansen will be hoping the second-rower will recover in time as he is the third specialist lock in the squad.

Meanwhile, the All Blacks are yet to confirm Sonny Bill Williams’ availability for selection. The NZRU are trying to sort out a short-term deal with his new Japanese club Panasonic Wild Knights, which will allow him to play in Sydney and the return match against the Wallabies in Auckland a week later.

    Can’t see WP beating the Sharkies today. Really, the team that AC and Fleckie selected for this game????

    As a WP supporter, I can’t see how we can beat them.

    well, first page of this thread says it all

    wait for it has finally had the mental breakdown, and all he has done is highlight how poor saffas are when they lose. before the super rugby final he admired the chiefs, and now they are cheats?

    also, his attacks on Read, imagine if I had. called Saffa players fijlthy scum? without ever.meeting them?

    why has no saffa told him to pull his head in? he is more repetitive then me, but it’s ok to call kiwis filthy scum huh?

    shall I call all saffas rapists? seems this would be frowned upon, but you all remain silent when Houston has a problem

    cool, glad I understand that saffas are the biggest hypocrites ever.

    and then you attack me you sad, raping mofo?

    anytime you want son, you are absolutely pathetic, and colour ALL saffas with the same brush..

    seems the conspriacy has combined with your syphillis and is slowly eating away at the little morsel you like to call a brain..

    regale us again about filthy scum kiwis, how they cheat etc etc ad nauseam..

    seriously, I now understand why Saffas needed black armbands, if this is the level of crying one reaches..

    @260 the idiot HG will be back. The big mouth went missing in action after the lions beat his pet fish. By the way his comrade Fern once vowed to never post here again after being caught out making inappropriate comments about another blogger’s daughters. Needless to say, he was soon seen back in these parts. Spineless

    There is no white nation in South Africa, only the Afrikaner nation. …. out on farms, where they drink brandy, torture natives, and practice incest.

    It’s a well-known fact that the Afrikaner race engages into incest as a form of preserving their pure race.What is so wrong about that?The blood of Herr Fritzl also partially runs through their veins.Nothing wrong about that either.

    Rowing is not an easy sport to do. Dont need to be an idiot cos your team didnt do as good as the Kiwis in the Olympics. But i wont sit here like you and down grade your guys sfforts at the Olympics.
    I thought South Africa did good. Does not matter what sport they won in, mighty effort for individuals to get there. Bit of respect from yourself would be nice, dont think you ever made it in sport let alone those non real sports.
