This whole Skelton debate reminds me of the one NZ used to have re. Mark Cooksley (2.05m & 125+ kg) through most of the '90s. We really, really wanted him to be this SA-style man-mountain we could build a pack around but he just wasn't quite there so we picked smaller guys who offered a better all-round package.
Has he ever be tried at 1? A guy that size would have to be a disruption on opposition throws, even if he just stands there waving his arms, a pretty decent target for a fast & flat throw on your own ball, a lifter/ blocker for the guy at 2, or just a decoy.
I'm guessing teams will be named tomorrow & that Chieka will keep us waiting until the last minute, probably name 24 or 25 as seems to be his MO?
