"Jake Gordon and Tane Edmed will start in the halves for the Wallabies on Saturday against the All Blacks, while coach Joe Schmidt has recalled Will Skelton and dropped Angus Bell for the second Bledisloe Cup fixture in Perth."

Yeah, because for whatever reason he has, and we don't yet know why...

How about talking about the alleged dead rubber being played this Saturday night? That'd be great.
Actually Spam, I actually wonder if it got that feel? I not sure I have probably ever been less excited about naming of both teams. Normally I one of those nerds who will watch/listen to both teams being named. Today I saw ABs on news, hour or so after they named, saw the Wallabies when I came on here, Not sure why, is it that Bled is won/held, and RC virtually tied up for SA? I not real sure.

Guessing that Lynagh is being given some time to fully recover and we will see him on the EOYT. Is Lolesio fit again?
I have little faith in either Donaldson or Edmed right now. They just do not seem quite up to the rigours of test footy. Hope they can improve and prove me wrong. We have an issue at 10 with no one really putting up their hand.

Lolesio's definitley not fit for a while, Lynagh listed unavailable

Unfortunately our flyhalf issue goes deeper than just hoping these blokes can improve.

Im sure this is the same sentiment expressed on these forums for the past few years and we have lived in hope.

Whilst we have seen marginal improvements at SRP (Super Rugby Pacific) level in a few blokes, in Donaldson case mostly due to a change in scenery, nothing has translated to test match.
