It will be interesting to see who comes in the AB squad announced tonight to replace Crotty and S Barrett.
My first thought is they might lean on bringing in a 13 rather than a 12 to replace Crotty as they already have plenty of cover for 12 (ALB, Laumape, SBW, Goodhue can play 12) whereas not as much at 13.
The names that come to mind for 13 would be Ennor or Proctor.
For Barrett I'd assume they'd replace him with a lock (rather than a 6) so someone like IWL, Franklin or Parkinson?
I can't see why. They have 5 midfielders they like for 4 spots. One went down, meaning the other 4 get the gig.
Fair enough. I guess where i'm coming from is with Crotty injured they now will only have 2 x 13s in a 41 man squad. I figure they might want to bolster that spot.
How many do we need?
-
@mariner4life Well if Goodhue is one of the candidates to be rested for the first test that leaves one 13....
-
have to think Ngani-ALB start or SBW-ALB.

Have we lost to Argentina before?
I suppose there is a very real chance if we send a mickey mouse team over there.
Kind of like a 'friendly'.............
they aren't taking it seriously anyway, they are focused on a world cup they won't win (or maybe even get out of the Group).
-
@taniwharugby Geez that will be interesting though I think most players have been mentioned in discussions in the 41.
So I wonder how big any surprises will be. -
@NTA @barbarian @antipodean great news Wallaby fans, your season is saved!! James O'Connor. Yes, that's right the James O'Connor has put pen to paper and is eligible for the Wallabies again this year. Your worries are a thing of the past.
-
@Chris if we were including Crusaders I'd say surprise level low (Ennor, Reece) but as we are not, I'm not sure who else would warrant 'surprise'; except the 51st Player.

@taniwharugby TJ Faiane - covers 12/13.

They call everyone a bolter/surprise who hasn't been in the squad before, so it could be Josh Ioane.
