Waratahs v Crusaders

@booboo Scott Barrett covers blindside, Cullen Grace covers openside. So you can be pretty sure that Whitelock and Dunshea will replace Strange and Douglas.
Kinda my point.
Do they see that the Tah's loosies are pretty immobile? Or are they intending smashing them up front?
... or both?

Dempsey at 7 is a weird call.
He's kind of stuck between 6,7 and 8.
Over tizzano? Yeah that's a weird call.

@booboo The Crusaders had only two options: this line-up, or fielding inexperienced academy player Liam Allen, who's with the squad as injury cover and has only 2 NPC caps for Canterbury. Not sure why Allen was called up and not Brendon O'Connor. Maybe injured, too?

It's the Waratahs. They have an ace pack. I mean seriously good.
Reckon they could run a rookie off the bench.

@Stargazer @booboo Dunshea covers blindside as well as lock.
Looking forward to the game. Congrats to Vella for the selection. Been around for a while now, so will be interesting to see how he goes.
