A few observations from the Rebels/Tahs:
- Naisirani would have to be short odds to take the #8 jersey. I've said it in the past, but he really is Cliff Palu 2.0. He doesn't necessarily steamroll over defenders, but he just works and works and works. The effort he was putting into his work in the last 5 minutes of the game was just outstanding.
- Beale is coming into form. He was assured at the back for the Tahs, taking high balls, returning kicks and injecting himself into the line when it's needed. You get the sense he has a few more strings to his bow than DHP, who looks OK but didn't have a great game.
- Koroibete is tightening his hold on the wing spot. He's in great form.
- Matt To'omua has to feature in our squad, on defence alone.
- Adam Coleman might be finding some form. Hope it continues. Had that abrasive edge in defence, which was great to see.
- Harry Johnson-Holmes will play plenty of games for the Wallabies, maybe not this year though.
Will Naisarani help our scrum and lineout?
