Or Hoops who will still be 33 when the Lions are here and completely plausible to be in selection frame

I think we will see an all Reds 9/10/12 for Japan

Jeez. I was angling at ones running around NPC trying to crack Super Rugby, not lads on a million pounds in the premiership! He would have to REALLY want to come home.

Could be a chance for ex Abs, like Naholo, Milne-Skudder, Ranger etc....though tbh I don't know who etc would be.

How many flankers do you need?! 6 fulltimes in: Kemeny, Leota, Lolesio, Wells, Hardwick & Wilkins 4 developing in: Haisila, Hough, Nuibalavu and Ioane I guess it's nice to have wallis familiar with structures if Hardwick or Wilkins need replacement due to major injury.

Just like with mcmahon kerevi and quade, Rennie likes to give guys time to get to know their systems. They will have 2 weeks in the UK prior to Scotland game, that may be enough, but Rennie just publicised that he won't play all 3 of the French boys v Scotland.

My dream wallaby tour XV, hopefully see it for the last game once they've gotten more comfortable with the structures. 1. Slipper 2. Latu 3. Tupou 4. Arnold 5. Skelton 6. Swinton 8. Valetini 7. Hoops 9. White 10. Quade 11. Koroibete 12. Kerevi 13. Ikitau 14. Kellaway 15. Hodge 16. Fainga'a 17...

Also the younger then arnold and skelton. In 2020 after the giteau law exemption, Rennie tried to get Arnold but he got injured, so he wanted Coleman but he got surgery, so he settled on Simmons. If you were to run out the top 4 aus locks tomorrow I think they would be Arnold, Skelton, Rodda &...

CFS is a good shout for a 13 backup and hard hitting wing backup for kata. Nicely done.

N New article (SMH paywall) mentions Coleman hit a lot of dead ends in his pursuit of a proper lock.

Banks & Mogg.

Jeez so now its what LHP: Bell, Brown THP: Smith, Holz, Tauakipulu Both: Faulkner & HJH (Harry Johnson-Holmes) It is safe to say with Tauakipulu retained and Holz recruited that Breen is still academy or released?

For a team that really wants a big tall strong go forward lock, they keep missing the mark a bit.... Out of the 6, Caird is still the biggest and several of them are very small for Professional locks.

With 5 locks already on the books, plus 6/7 backrowers, PLUS Hanigan, I doubt they have the player or salary cap space to warrant another body in that space.

There is no way McGregor or Strachan will be a clear improvement on Rob Kearney. Miotti is an international player - better then mcintyre, with kuenzle & pasitoa barely super rugby players yet. It's a weaker squad and it's a very much a fingers crossed scenario that its a squad that will...

My problem thus far is that whilst the force were ok they weren't THAT ok. NOW, the force have lost their best 9, 10 (cubelli & miotti), their backup samoan 12 in Taefu (who IMO should have been the 1st choice), their 1st choice wallaby 13 in Tk and probably their best player & 15 in Irish...

Beale if we need a fullback And if Daugunu and Vunivalu still on the rehab list then you must have Naiyaravoro waiting in the 'wings'

I believe Holmes is heading home for his own baby experience and not available to tour.

3. Kellaway 2. Valetini 1. Kerevi

I think it'll be a part of new contracts and not applicable to any existing contract. I think it will be applicable for that term they used around hoarding/warehousing I think it was.So not so much about playing out of position, but just playing! Example scenario: A specialist 15 in Jesse Mogg...
