2 Ted 's 2011 RWC squad only had two first-fives initially. Cruden and then Donald came in after injuries:

I thought they had dagg in the squad as the other first five. Or was he solely a fullback then.

Yes I'm reading 100 comments ago. I have some important stuff to procrastinate on.

@Magpie_in_aus Piri was the 'other' 10 option in the 2011 squad. Didn't he play at 10 in the pool game v Canada?

[Stargazer]

You're all forgetting Colin Slade.

[KiwiMurph]

@Stargazer no not forgotten he's one of the two first fives in the initial squad.

Yes, he played the last 30 mins. Slade went to the wing. Weepu became the first-choice goal-kicker too.

@Bovidae Slade was best at left right out

That was more Kaino coming on and bossing than Slade. Although after Cruden's horror show, he looked good.

Cruden turned out to be amazingballs though, can see why the coaches liked him.

I think you are getting confused with Sydney 2010 when Kaino and Slade came off the bench and Cruden started.

Cruden did not play in the Brisbane 2014 game.

Another injury in Eddie's Overly Enthusiastic Training Circus

Brad Shields' injury opens door for uncapped Alex Dombrandt to get England call

Alex Dombrandt featured in Eddie Jones' initial training squads before losing his place, but the uncapped back row has now earned a reprieve following an injury to Brad Shields.
