He won 1 out of 10 lineouts on the weekend. Played 52 minsThose watching Skelton's current games - is he jumping?
It's a shame Chieka the master motivator couldn't get Skelton in shape.
Yeah shame Cheika isn't a master dietician, nutritionist and rehab professional as well, he could spend all his time working on those things in the background then..

Being a selector Cheika could have steered Skelton towards following the advice of the experts in those roles who he seemed to be ignoring. 'Eat properly or you're dropped from the team' is motivation, continually getting selected just reinforces the 'I don't need to listen to these people' attitude. Clearly something has taken place at Saracens to get him in better shape.
Isn't getting the most out of the players we have available not only CHieka's job, but also his supposed specialty? Is he paid big money so he can avoid responsibility when the players aren't fit enough just because he isn't the fitness coach? Does he get a pass on our awful defence because he isn't the D coach? If you can pass the buck to someone else for pretty much everything, what's the point of having him?
Where does the buck stop? Doesn't he pick all the players and appoint basically everyone else?
I doubt Mark McCall lived with Skelton 24/7 either.

It's clearly the Government's fault.The concept of self-responsibility is not receiving a lot of love these days, I blame the internet
It's Russian hackers!It's clearly the Government's fault.
JP is a year away right? Played Currie cup in 2016 and needs three years here after that?So if slipper has the sort of game he had last week against the Vikings and same for JP Smith had against the Force they would just have to be in the Wallaby mix.
JP Smith months away from eligibility for Wallabies and has to be in the running for Wallabies squad as is Slipper who already had pedigree before injury and drug related issues.
