Sonny Bill to star but where will he play?

Writing in The New Zealand Herald, Wynne Gray wonders if there is a place for Sonny Bill Williams in the All Blacks squad.

"I'm with Khoder Nasser all the way. Couldn't quibble with the bloke - even if some of his methods, from a distance, seem a bit agricultural.

"Nasser is the bloke who manages boxer Anthony Mundine and Sonny Bill Williams, the yet to get started Cantab in the ITM Cup.

"There was his manager, talking recently through a range of his topics associated with his two main clients and predicting impending All Black status for SBW.

"No worries, said Nasser, SBW would be picked for the All Blacks and would be a star.

"I half agree at least. Star? Dunno, but it will be 29 blokes plus SBW for the end-of-year tour with the All Blacks.

"Nothing will surprise unless the bloke is damaged.

"Why else would the NZRU and All Black selectors go through all their ingratiation unless they thought SBW was of international calibre? That done, the investment will have to be used on the end-of-year tour."
