    happy enough to see gregory have a "rest"

    Interesting that Gregory was named at 12 on the official Aussie rugby site (the rest of the 23 was the same)
    Maybe he was a late injury rather than dropped?

    @Kiwiwomble I like it. He's a good fullback

    Back to a 6:2 bench but Gilbert at least provides more cover if any early injury strikes.

    Holy shit you've nailed it. He's Blair!

    I think @ACT-Crusader used to suggest he should have been a ten. Well now you know, no sir he fucking shouldn't have.

    He can cover right from 10 - 15! Including the midfield

    @SouthernMann I'd say he could cover the loose forwards too

    Brown was very complimentary of this midfield earlier in the season, saying they had the potential to be world class.

    Now he's shifted them around in their positions? Weird.

    they havent exactly lit the world on fire, maybe just a sign he's not too stubborn to change, this was my preferred midfield at the start of the season so really hoping they do well

    TUJ before his injury was terrific at 12. The issue was at 13. Hope it goes well though.

    no doubt, and ive said before i'm just a stupid forward that have never really understood the apparent huge difference between 12 and 13, foolishly claiming they could be swapped around more before being corrected

    TUJ has shown an ability to break the line so might just be as simple as brownie wants to do that slightly wider and bring the wings into the game?

    @KiwiMurph @Kiwiwomble

    Maybe Brown is as confused as the rest of us at getting this amazing midfielder in Paea who then runs out and does a very sweet fuck all., So is switching his position because he must be wrong with so many rating him.

    Edit: it could also be at the AB selectors request? Shifting Paea to 12 opens up the possibility of a Paea/Ennor midfield.

    It's very possible that their jerseys will be the other way round when they take the field on Sunday. Late changes sometimes aren't accurately reflected in team releases.
