How are the AB's tracking heading into the BIL series?

facepalms
Really? Why?
-
@mariner4life Because they can.
It will likely infuriate some NH fans too so it's all good!
-
It also gives them an unfair advantage too which is a bonus.

Not sure if this has been posted, JK, Ric Salizzo and Grant Fox.
Haven't watched all of it but from the Foxy part at least we now have it confirmed that the AB squad for the series will be 33 with a likely 18/15 split and 3 hookers/3 halfbacks/3 10s. 5 Props of course.
So 10 locks and loosies. Basically 2 of each.
9 centres and outsides. 4 spares. -

@JayCee or maybe they have had BB practising his arse off, but not doing the canes kicking to lull the Lions into a false sense of security...add that to all the fake injuries, this is top work by the AB coaches!
-
@JayCee Yeah that was an interesting comment about "not wanting to drill down into that".
You don't have to look too far to see that if it's not the first five doing the kicking then it's pretty much got to be Dmac or Jordie - unless Dagg is suddenly going to be a revelation.
My guess would be that if they decide it's a major concern then they could shoehorn DMac into fullback and play Ben Smith on the wing (or even vice versa - even though I've not seen McKenzie play wing).
I simply can't see them giving Jordie a debut in this series.
-
fuck it, why bother with kicks at all?
Score tries and head back to half way, we go in multiples of 5 vs thier 3!
-
I think the alternative will be the guy that's played and kicked for 40 odd tests when DC was injured - Cruden. If BB's kicking is really costing us then Cruds will come on, BB to 15 and B Smith to 14. I doubt they're losing too much sleep over it.
