Otago v Lions
OTAGO: Glen Horton; Hayden Pedersen, Neil Brew, Seilala Mapusua, Matt Saunders; Nick Evans, Danny Lee; Carl Hoeft, Jason Macdonald, Craig Dunlea, Filipo Levi, Tom Donnelly, Craig Newby (Capt), Josh Blackie, Grant Webb.
Replacements: Jed Vercoe, Jeremy Aldworth, Andrew McClintock, Alando Soakai, Chris Smylie, Ryan Bambry, Jason Shoemark.
Certainly not as strong as Wellington side today.
It'll be interesting to see who SCW puts out.
Test side or another mishmash?

That'll mean a number of players, notably O'Driscoll, playing three games in a week. BO'D looks like he could do with another game anyway.
But I would like to see the Test side play this Saturday and then all get next Wednesday off.
Southland aren't much cop - normally in bottom half of NPC.

hhhmmmmmm!!!!!!!
So it seems the Test side will not have played together until they run out at Christchurch on 25 June - I really can't see them all playing against Southland.
Players in this side with realistic chances of pushing for TEst selection - Murphy, O'Callaghan and to lesser extent D'Arcy and Bulloch.
