I think he is the 8 in the first teamView attachment 15415

Weight a typo Reg? Thinks it's Wright?

Edit: just seen your post clarifying

That's a great troll by Eddie, puts enough 1st choices in there so it's not very clearly a troll but also controversial selections to get everyone talking. He knew someone would snap that.

Ultimate piss take would've been naming the Brumbies squad

Absolutely awesome piece of media baiting. Beautiful.

Eddie may as well turn around and ask if he wrote it large enough

The wing on the 1st team perhaps more Jorgensen, which makes more sense. And possible Wright bracketed after Samu

Eddie's having a laugh if Swain beat Frost based on Melbourne performances.

Every report has said Nawa which seems correct.

This list only involves players playing right now for Super Rugby teams based on what I can see.

Yep - for mine it looks like overseas players could be listed behind his hand in red, under where it seems to say 'OS'

Suprised not to see Carter Gordon name there.

I think with his performance the last 2 weeks, long as he keeps up the form and keeps banking these team of the week performances he will find his way into the wallabies frame.

Agree… has played well so far… maybe Eddie doesn’t like his haircut!

Swain and Neville..... Just absolute piss taking having either of them over Frost.

to be fair the Brumbies have hit paydirt with quality from the bench (White, Loloesio, Neville, Slipper for the first game, etc).

Perhaps Eddie wants to do the same? There is certain merit in bringing Frost on for 25 or so and telling him to go nuts. Of course I wouldn't have Swain anywhere near the wallaby team at the moment, but Eddie loves a hot head.

Captain if history repeats. Consistent with the "smash and grab" great rugby swindle too.

It's also just a list Eddie Jones jotted on a piece of paper. Did a vast amount of thought go into each name and where they were positioned before he wrote anything down or was it just a rough draft of players that are standing out to him? There's no names crossed out on the list so it's clear he didn't rejig things as he thought of different people or reconsidered the order.

 

[Derpus]

Still unsure about Eddie but I am all about this level of trolling.

he needs to do this again next week but just have a starting XV with nothing but NRL names.

I bet the NRL agents would love that troll

It only confirms my belief that Eddie's natural home is right here on the forum.

Scrawling a team in the middle of round two is peak GAGR. In two weeks he will be shouting at nearby spectators that Hooper is really a 12.

So Donaldson will be playing 10 in coming weeks for Tahs?
