They didn't even manage that against the might of Fiji? It's not like this is the 2015 vintage ABs.
Sure, they'll probably spank us once or twice but 60 seems unlikely.

Because things could get worse.
Either way, the game is in 2 weeks time and they'd be set to head back into camp, why not do the whole 2 weeks in New Zealand.

I think so, though I'm not sure exactly what size that'd be. At this stage rugby championship tests will probably be reshuffled to at least play everything set for new zealand in new zealand, so I imagine they'll be there for a while. Will need the extras to train with and won't be able to call replacements in quickly in the event of injury.
At the end of the day I'm just speculating on all this but I'd be amazed if they didn't have some fairly developed contingency planning for just this event.

Apparently Tom Wright, Andrew Muirhead and the Lonergan brothers are now in Canberra. Would it be possible for them, or anyone else from outside Queensland to join the touring squad? I wouldn't have thought so.

Fortunately not in our best 23 but L. Longeran & Wright would be first injury replacements, so that's a blow.

Exempt - in what way Muzza? I understood other States had lumped ACT into NSW in declaring their borders shut.

Pretty much agree. Ryan Lonergan is probably effectively replaced by Nic White returning. Three half backs would be sufficient.
Lachlan Lonergan's role is most likely tied up with the return of Kaiatu'u. That would give us three hookers too which should be enough.
But with Daugunu's injury, Wright would perhaps come back into the starting lineup, and in that case Muirhead would perhaps normally be the first reserve. They could well be missed.

Exactly - do a 3 game series or something -

Maybe that’s just saying they’re not going to be in the squad.

From my understanding Queensland has not shut boarders to ACT residence

Don't know exactly how it worked but they said on Rugby Heaven on tue that all Brumbies players were the only ones allowed to return home for a week, I think all of them did.

He looks the goods but i'm not sure he'd jump Harrison in the queue....

Not while the club season is still going, best thing for him right now is more game time and he wouldn't be getting that filling numbers in the Wallabies squad. Would be a good candidate for one of the squad spots they usually bring along on the Northern tours though.

Of course he would.
Harrison isn’t playing any football whatsoever and Carter is putting his hand up and then some in the Qld premier rugby.
