Foster giving out the caps like confetti. -
christie is an obvious surprise...dont get giving guys one game off the bench and then gone, surely ease them in to bench and then start and then try someone else
anyone else think ardie could have been given a rest? im the first one to say players should be given a few games in a row to settle etc...but he's got nothing to prove and there are still question marks over who covers him if he picks up a niggle

@taniwharugby
Yep pain in the arse to get over a bit like groin injuries. -

lol at the thought of the average Eddie Jones team after he's been in charge for 5 years
Props who can't scrum
Locks who can't maul
Add 12 loig backs and we're set like a jelly! -

Wallabies named
- Angus Bell (22 Tests) 2. David Porecki (13 Tests) 3. Pone Fa’amausili (4 Tests)
Consistency + injury replacement
- Nick Frost (11 Tests) 5. Richie Arnold (3 Tests)
Frost yes. Arnold....
- Tom Hooper (2 Tests) 7. Fraser McReight (11 Tests) 8. Rob Valetini (33 Tests)
Maybe a bit unfair on Holloway but McReight given a chance to get on the place
- Tate McDermott (c) (24 Tests) 10. Carter Gordon (3 Tests) 11. Marika Koroibete (54 Tests) 12. Samu Kerevi (44 Tests) 13. Jordan Petaia (26 Tests) 14. Mark Nawaqanitawase (5 Tests) 15. Andrew Kellaway (22 Tests)
Consistency. Good to see. Won't make a difference, but good to see.
Finishers
16. Jordan Uelese (18 Tests) 17. James Slipper (130 Tests) 18. Zane Nonggorr (1 Test) 19. Will Skelton (27 Tests) 20. Rob Leota (15 Tests)
21. Nic White (62 Tests) 22. Quade Cooper (79 Tests) 23. Izaia Perese (4 Tests)Same but different with the loss of Tupou (again: why the fuck did he take up 2 plane seats getting over there?).
Skelton rotates with Arnold. Not bad policy.
Still, ABs by 40.

I understand why, but it still seems a bit farked up that Melbourne gets the A team and Dunedin gets the B team.

Yeah but I read it as today. Don't dismiss my lived experience.

I reckon mounga on bench for emergency, dmac plays the full 80
-
Ha ha. Lot of posters with egg on faces with the selection for this weekend.
-
@Rancid-Schnitzel There was probably more kiwis at the game in Melbourne than there will be in Dunners...
-
Fucking stubborn Foster. Still can't shake SF on the blind.
Forward pack looks handy I reckon, not one I'd cringe at against any other side.
Like that SS gets his debut with DMac running the cutter, their combination is the cherry on top for Stevenson's form. Just hope Christie and Ennor don't ruin it for the back 3.
