Stick JOC (James O'Connor) at 15 and give Noah a run at 10. Perese to 13, Kellaway 14 and Daugunu 11.

They are both pretty bad. Maloney is ok, tries hard at least. Only bloke I really rate at the moment is Turinui who has a lot of genuine insight. Merts is just a Canterbury version of Kearns.

I think thats harsh on Ikitau - he's has some pretty great moments in attack that didn't involve Kerevi. Running over Pollard to storm over was as attacking as it gets.

Anyone seen Dismal lately? Been quiet from him

Our scrum was fronting up against the Saffas fine (the best) . I don't get the mechanics but the outputs following the new selections certainly don't suggest an improvement. Scrum should be a strength of ours.

It is funny how we swing off these blokes nuts when they perform and then call for their heads when they have a shit game. Long season, thinning squad and some experimental picks. Plus, really, a game we would rarely expect to win going back more than a decade. Shit performance, learn your...

Thought hed been ruled out for the finals matches of the year.

Its pretty disappointing TBH.

Forgot about that.

Sure - I've been wrong before and it won't be the last time. I think it can work with Japanese based players but Europe is just too far.

Yeah, Philip is the best of the lot IMO. I can't get my head around Skelton having one run across two games. The fucks the point in having him in the side?

With Hooper injured who comes in at 7? I guess Samu. Every gamble in the squad selection for this tour has failed.

I dunno - I just think you need time and continuity as a team to properly perform. They'll never have it - except maybe in a WC. At which point it'd be fucking bullshit to drop a player who's been a consistent part of the squad for a European ring-in. If they were in Japan it would be...

Also what does time have to do with 1 carry in forty minutes of football from a player who's supposed strength is carrying?

Time? How do we get them time. They live in Europe.

So we tested out the European contingent. Good thing we did it now and not in a WC. Bin em.

Was a stupid comment then and remains so. Agree Beale is obviously past it though.

Yeah not convinced JOC (James O'Connor) is better than Noah. He's not getting any better - Noah is.

We've turned into Wales
