This might be a little too ambitious from rassie. He treating Australia like Portugal. If he pulls it off it will be awesome…
I think SA currently has the depth to do it. This appears to be their version of our 2004-07 squad.
Lots to lose though. If they’re trying to win the championship, this is risky. But in the bigger picture, great to be putting new players out there to see what they’re made of.
It’s definitely going to be entertaining! -

With WW2 spitfire pilot look-alike Nic White pulling the strings, anything is possible for them
As one who is a technical descendant of those mighty few fighter crews, wash your mouth out!
A technical descendant?? There's a cloning factory?

My money’s on Mustard this week.
That would be quite the turnaround in form for both teams. Oz would need a good lead when you look at the benches.

20 Seru Uru* - Wests Bulldogs
23 Max Jorgensen* - Balmain WolvesThought Jorgensen might get selected sooner rather than later (another father and son to add to the Wallaby list), but surprised to see Uru in there. I guess you never know when that call might come especially when loosies have been dropping like flies for the Wallabies.
That will be debutantes 11 and 12 this season for Schmidt. Certainly spreading his wings.
