Think he plays as the no 2 choice no.7 Which means he won't play much unless off the bench a couple times. Nothing crazy for a 21 yr old.

I didnt say they shouldnt. Really have no choice if they continue to overlook the veterans. What I'm saying is that Lolesios journey is nothing like Moungas and the comparison should not have been made.

"Get them their as fast as we can" - is Mckellars words so not a great stretch to suggest thats mckellars narrative

No it's not - but its his Brumbies HC and wallabies assistant who made the comparison.

Exactly right. Mounga is a story of how it should be done, it doesn't reinforce Lolesios path, it counters it. Mounga wasn't in the full crusaders squad until he was 21/22 and he got that chance, plus being thrust into the starting 10 jersey because guys like Slade, Taylor and Carter moved...

You could see the frustration in Mcdermott. Had to do alot himself, but this could also reflect a lack of stern direction from him and Lolesio as play unfolded. Something that Genia/Quade were a masterclass at. Always the general and conductor pulling the strings. Something the youngsters have...

Based on photos think the Aus backline was 9. Lonergan 10. Quade 11. Muirhead 12. To'omua 13. Wright 14. Gordon 15. DP Holmes has been training with them but think played against them. 1. Sio 2. Kaituu 3. Robertson 4. Leota 5. Frost 6. Wilson 7. Mcreight 8. Naisarani Looks like a couple...

This would make more sense if he was actually opposing Tupou.. Would make more sense if we were talking about big Karl because they will actually scrum against each other- HE has come on suspiciously close to Tupous appearances.

and quade :)

Modified, and it was modified some time ago now.

Plan didn't work v france.

Contracts run till December unless released early. Which he hasn't been...yet.

Pete Samu was officially announced in the Bledisloe and TRC squad. He wasn't in the French series, that was Wells instead

Jeez - we are missing more "best possible" players then the ABS. Thank god we get Kerevi and Rodda back otherwise it would have been VERY grim, very grim indeed.

AND there you have it. Fainga'a starts. Bloody musical chairs with these hookers ffs

FF (Folau Fainga'a) has shown up in ALOT of training photos, including WA

Well they have BPA, Kaituu, Fainga'a and Lonergan. Plus not sure if Mcinerney is still with them. I think what is more bewildering is why him and not one of the others.

They don't have 46 players in camp so have to either find extras to fill in or not field a full bench. Assuming they keep as close to their previous team as possible (not my personal choice just for sake of argument) 1. Slipper 2. Amosa 3. Ala'alatoa 4. Swain 5. Phillip 6. Swinton 8. Valetini...

5ft 10 (almost 4cm away from 6ft) but even that i thought is a stretch

Quade can probably - run faster then noah, stronger then noah, pass better then noah, kick better then noah, have better vision then noah, have better communication then noah and have better decision making skills and experience then noah. Yeh I wouldn't pick him either. This is a massive over...
