Assuming neither To'omua nor Beale can make the England tests, looking more like Lealiifano at 12 to Foley at 10. He's about the only other experienced at test level player still on his feet.

Of course, Lilo is the first option. I said that is a good opportunity for the boy. There aren't too depth without the first 2 options. I prefer the boy before that someone like Anthony Fainga'a

Ill get shot down i sure but i would love to see Godwin there would be good to see how he'd go with some decent players around him. Also would be good to see what a good coach can get out of him Cheika seems like he is good at getting the best out of players and i dont care what anyone says Godwin has the goods to be a great player he has just lost his was with the lack of direction and development under Foley.
Being on his feet is about all he has at the moment. Leali'ifano is showing nothing of late to convince me he is the answer. I mean the past few years have shown not even Larkham knows where to play him or To'omua. Or how. I struggle to remember which combo actually worked in the past 2 years. It's a problem.

On that basis, you'd pick the whole Force squad,excepting the very few in form, wouldn't you?

Lilo would go fine at 12 for the Wobs.

He has to play some good footy. The national team is no place to see if he can.

Lilo should play 12 if Gits, To'omua and Beale are unavailable.
Next question would be if you need another 10 in both the squad and the 23.

you could see the difference he made to the Force team on the weekend against the Sunwolves he is a decent player the cupboard is very bear atm hence why i put it out there. But like i said i would get shut down never suggest a force player for wobs selection i hear the Under 20's 12 went alright against the baby blacks maybe he should get the gig......

You're not being shut down because you're suggesting a Force player, even if you predicted it beforehand. That's just neurotic. Godwin is promising player, for sure, but he's nowhere near international quality at this stage, which is a shame, because three years ago it seemed certain he would be.
The Wallabies isn't a development squad for promising youngsters.
If it was we'd play Kerevi, whose numbers for run meters, tackles busts and offloads are off the scale.

Jeez we've got a lot of inside backs injured at the moment. Is Gits fit and available? Lilo would be my first choice but it looks a bit think after that. Maybe Bob will get his wish and TK will play 12 and Izzy at 13? Dunno who plays fullback in that scenario....

I will be very surprised if Hunt is not in the 23 for the First Test. He is a very talented footballer.

Lealiifano is the front runner for the 12 position. Kerevi next time line for both positions. Chieka wants Karmichael Hunt pushing Folau for the FB position at the test level. He won't play him at 12 but the versatility could win him a bench spot.
Also Andrew Ready has been added into the Wallaby mix. The big squad is in Sydney today having tea and coffee for the morning & afternoon. No trainings, just meets with the staff etc.
