Good decision. Anyone can go down at any stage and giving Quade another 20 minutes of game time at 10 could be invaluable if he is called on at a later stage. Much safer subbing in a winger that hasn't played for a few weeks.Quade on the bench is the interesting one. Wonder if they're trying to get him to 60.
We'll be in trouble if an outside back incl. 13 gets injured.
AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) can come in one.

You and BR both.I have been fairly critical about Benny Macs overall impact in test games in the past, but last week he shoved all my doubts so deep into my throat that they came out from the other end.
I am expecting a huge game from him.

I'm surprised it's not Speight just because he can cover wing and 13, and we already have To'omua to cover 10
How much more time do they give Horne before sending him home?

I think we can safely shelve the Speight for 13 plan. AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) is the back up. We probably could have easily brought another centre instead of one of the wingers. I guess no-one really put their hand up. Kerevi maybe?
We'll be in trouble if two go down. Otherwise, Foley has played plenty of fullback and could comfortably push Kurtley to the wing (where he played well against England), which would free up AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) to play 13 (where he has played well in the past).
Cheika will have a plan.
It would have made more sense to use Speight unless the plan is to get Cooper some game time at 10 to keep him an option if Foley goes down.
Horne? he trained doing contact work this week, he must be close enough and Chieka appreciates his points of difference
