I think he's on the money. You look across his hypothetical XV and there's plenty of quality. Cheika has what now has to be the unquestioned ability to get the most of players. He's a master at taking a group of blokes and making them better than they were before. Watching Rugby 360 he clearly has that as his aim and in the short time he's had as Wallaby coach he's shown me enough to confirm it.
It's a big squad, one of the purposes is have young new cattle involved, being exposed.
I don't think we should have an issue with some of the new young boys included, they may progress next year or the year after.
I'd be concerned about including ones in the latter half of their career though.
From the daily telegraph:
Props who attended the camp were Ta’avao, Scott Sio, Alan Ala'alatoa, Laurie Weeks, Toby Smith, James Slipper and Greg Holmes, while the Force’s Tetera Faulkner was invited.

He doesn't even derserve the Tahs jersey
But according to many Tahs' fans here, he was only included to hold the tackle bags. Funny that, as there was no actual running and ball work at all according to Cheika, but merely a big talk fest.
If Ta'avao is included in the Wallaby squad for the June Test series this forum will go into meltdown..
