I am rather disturbed and somewhat confused as a result of the selection of the All Black team to play Australia in the first test. To include Osborne, who stated he was finished with international football, is small comfort to those who played in the trials and for New Zealand last season. I will be watching Osborne's performance at Lancaster Park with great interest'. Also. South beat North, but only got two out of 15 in the team. They might as well call it the North Island team.
