There seems to be a recurring theme to your posts that you want any option that doesn't involve Hooper starting.
It's arguable that the pilfering player off the bench can have a greater impact because they get to play against tiring players who might be slightly slower or less effective with their cleanouts.
Sure.
I like the way the AB's do the split with Todd/Cane starting for breakdown focus and in tight play and A Savea to pick up the tempo.
Look what happened when Hooper started Todd had a field day since Hooper's strength is not the ruck.
Warburton is out for Wales and Tipuric will be starting who is a ruck monkey.
