    On form Beale shouldn't be anywhere near the starting Wobs team, but I expect him to be persevered with initially As a 15 at test level, he isn't safe enough under the high ball and struggles to get go forward against a set chase line. But I don't think Banks will start at 15, DHP deserves...

    He maybe, but as a 12 he potentially world class, at 13 he is less than TK

    I agree he is underwhelming, but if we are looking for a back up inside back 10/12 I think he will get the nod (I would take Lilo) I think JOC (James O'Connor) is competing with Beale & Hodge

    To'omua will be there ahead JOC (James O'Connor)

    I think we have learned Kerevi is a gun 12 and average at 13. Of the players who actually play 13, I would actually prefer CFS, then Hodge and then AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)

    So who would you have at 15?

    I like the option of having one winger with the skills of a 15 and the other a power option. I think Maddocks, Pulu & Banks will be tested for the first and Koroibete, Speight, Palu & Naivalu for the later I could see Pulu & Koroibete on the wings with Kerevi & Kuridrani in the centres & DHP...

    The guy is an edge forward and will fit in well as a dynamic crash ball 12, which is where he played (12) for Aus schools. He has been pushed to prop lately to let taller units hit the edges Side note - he at one time was also interested in representing Aus in shot putt at the the Comm...

    I was a little sceptic of DHP, but the quality of his work at 15 is quite impressive, very safe, gets past the first defender, makes good decisions Beale? I wouldn't start him, he hasn't been safe enough at 15 and struggles on kick return against set defenses and ends up getting smashed or...

    If we could rely on the wobs getting consistent front foot ball then Quade would make sense, but we won't, it will be trench warfare when it gets hard and that isn't his game

    I didn't put him in my squad, but I don't dismiss him either, as to his lineout effectiveness, he takes all his balls, gets up fast and creates pressure at two, he isn't crap, but he isn't the dominant crash ball unit I think we need

    We continually focus on players weaknesses and not what they actually bring to the mix. Hanigan is competing with Jones & LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) for the 4/6 bench option they all have weaknesses and strengths and it will be down to the backrow balance. Hanigan is a lineout gun with a high workrate, Jones is the...

    Phipps's pass is a factor of his want to clear the ball faster than any other 9 in aus. So yes you get a shit pass sometimes, but you also end up with a lot of attacking options against un-set defenses because he is by far the quickest to the breakdown and to clear. Like always, it is swings...

    Genia & White are both playmaking 9s, it means you can run the 10 and two running centres (Kerevi & Kuridrani) and pace on the edges Genia \ White Foley\ Lilo Koro \ Pulu Kerevi \ To'omua Kuridrani \ F-Sautia Maddocks \ Banks DHP Big Centres fast outsides

    I wouldn't be surprised if Lilo & Foley are the two 10's taken, they are quite like like for like and will put their bodies on the line
