Always find it strange why they never move Fotu to 8. Is he poor at the back of the scrum?

Not much mention of Benn Robinson. Guess no-one will be surprised about seeing him dropped from the squad? I honestly haven't seen too many Tah's games but I'm surprised their aren't more Tah's fans pushing for him to be in the squad.

My thoughts as the same as tranquillity. Lots of talk about CFS but I'm yet to see him shine. Potential is there but he isnt performing to the level everyone seems to be raving about.

I hope you right Pfitzy as most of our regular line-out callers are either in questionable form (Simmons) or unavailable for selection (Pyle, Mowen).

Can't believe no other Aus province didn't pick him up. Could have been a solid regular starter for any other Aus province.

Is Higgers the line-out caller for the Rebs?

Nice points on Horwill & Simmons. Can't agree with Kepu or Cummins. I feel Alexander is playing his best rugby and has really benefited from the new scrum laws. I think you may be blinded by the Honey Badgers awesome post-match interviews because his form is not much better then Tomane's...

At this stage I definitely think we need to blood a new lock (from the bench) as our current lock stocks in Horwill, Simmons, Douglas are becoming pedestrian. Winger their will be Spreight. Can't see anymore.

Plus Moggs boot will be more valuable then ever against the Saders. Also the only way he will improve under pressure is for him to play these sorts of games. McCabe with the form he is in is the unluckiest bloke in the super XV to miss out on a starting spot, but i agree with the selection.

Wow did not realise it was this soon.

Currently agree with this. But there is still quite some time left of the super xv season. The 10. To'omua 12. Lealifano partnership would flourish for the rest of the reason, likewise a drop in form from Cooper could see things change quickly.

Form is temporary, class is permanent. Crusaders will always be a classy team. A real Test for the Brumbies. Looking forward to seeing Lealifano regain some form after his injury lay-off. Will be interesting to see how he performs.

Agree with this, however key questions are where is To'omua going to play, 10 or 12. Likewise with Fardy at 4 or 6. Howver agree, they are a shoe-in to start Would also question the Badger, don't think he has played better then Tomane, plus with options of Spreight or shifting ACC to the wing...

And to be fair, the best team available on form is largely going to players with Test experience. I don't see many Bolters at all apart from Spreight and Maybe a lock. Also most players are specialists in their rightful positions apart from To'omua if he shifts to 12 - but thats proven to...

I can see Nonu having a field day in the 10-12 channel this game. Sure his form is always questionable but I can almost guarantee he will steam-roll over the top of Beale this game at least once. Given they both play.

Would have dropped Coleman and shifted McCabe to the wing. Coleman has been great but McCabe has been better. No Cruden for the Chief's is a big plus for us.

Hooper will be the starting 7. And rightly so. Hodgeson I hope will be back-up. With the form he is in I will be disappointed to see Gill ahead of him in the pecking order.

i'll throw Morahan's name out there. I think he could well be one of the dark horse's that steps up and does well. The reason, when he first came on the scene I was very impressed with his running game. Then his game verse the B&I Lions was amazing, 2 try saving tackles, and a superb solo...

The problem I see with having McCabe in the squad is his similarity in style to the others which are likely to be selected. He doesn't balance out the squad nicely. For example if you got AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper), To'omua and Cummins in the squad, they are all hard direct runners. Then your adding McCabe too who is...

Yes It was hard to admit being a Brumbies supporter and a big Mogg fan, but he is still questionable and has to prove himself at Test level whereas JOC (James O'Connor) doesnt. Although I agree the potential is definitely there and he is improving nicely. Also he hasn't had much time defending on the wing as...
