That bench is starting to look much better, some units that can actually turn a game

Do the tahs plan to select a team?

From the Twetter

He should take the money as well

Yeah, no, wrong model Rugby is more like Cricket in Aus Test rugby is the money maker, everything else breaks even at best, at worst we minimise the loss - like the Shute Shield & club cricket

mmm keep the $$$ for the two world class props who will require substantial and deserved wage upgrades quite soon

There is load more stock available after a RWC, from memory fringe test units got some big offers just before the last RWC They are aren't competing with starting all those RWC players who will be looking for their last big pay cheques

Why would they counter? He ain't worth that much $$$, he should take it and run

Games at the backend of the Super Rugby have always sort out who can deliver, especially with the Kiwis added Units have to be able to deliver consistently even while carrying niggles in tougher games and every error is punished harder

He is the best 14/second fullback we have, he does all the basics consistently well and finds the line. Vunivalu is only unit that "could" add more ex factor, but so far he is made of glass

I tend to agree he maybe our best 15 option, just not the finished product

only parts, dinner out and excessive drinking intervened

He probably does, but from my viewing those tackle busts aren't usually from kick return (so far), and specifically making the advantage line, with enough "energy" to create front foot ball for that next phase. (too many miracle passes that put the receiver in a worse position) He is a good...

None of them consistently break tackles on kick return or are a guarantee front foot ball.

He hasn't played anyone good yet this year, we are still playing internal trials

Which is why he would be my second choice currently for the Wobs with a RWC around the corner, but at sometime we also have to let one of those flaky and inconsistent younglings get that experience and live with the mistakes, Quade and JOC (James O'Connor) are getting ready for their walkers

JOC (James O'Connor) is very solid, experienced and incredibly consistent But he is no threat at test level

Yeah, it depends on how we want to finish Samu gives you back row flexiblity and mobility, McReight is behind Hooper, I wouldn't plan to replace Hooper and we need lineout options. If Hooper is not playing, McReight is the obvious choice to start Leota? maybe, my challenge with him is...

Yeah, stats ignore those efforts off the ball which are just so important
