Wallabies 2024

[Alex Sharpe]

I certainly don't think Cale has been written off. He may have just been told to spend some time between now and the spring tour lifting weights and drinking chocolate milk to get some size on.

Yeah I reckon Cale has been left out of the Springbox squad due to his size

 

[Marce]

Who is the starter openside flanker?

 

[Derpus]

I don't think it will happen but I'd love to see the following back three one time:

11. Koroibete
14. Toole
15. Kellaway/Wright (either works for me)

I think Koroibete and Toole best complement a box-kick oriented game plan and actually have some pace left in their legs.

Reimer with Hooper on the bench.

I can't see Toole getting selected, I think Koroibete, Kellaway & Wright are locked in

 

[Slim 293]

I reckon we'll see Toole in one of these tests against the Boks, whether that's starting or off the bench...

Not sure why people are using the word "dumped" for players who have rotated out. Schmidt was always going to be looking at options.

Rotated out isn't nearly dramatic enough.

We'll only accept dumped, axed or potentially boned if you'd like a mid 2000s media reference.

 

[Sword of Justice]

Hard to drop Daugunu on form but if Koroibete is still as good as he was then it’s one of those tough choices I suppose. Probably prefer putting Kellaway to the back with both Daugunu and Koroibete on wings. I don’t think you lose heaps of kicking that way to be frank.

I would have also taken lambasts if you want to get a bit fancy.

 

[stillmissit]

So, Cale dumped and Uru, Reimer and Tizzano brought in...

I'm not surprised, he was given an opportunity, I didn't think he made the best of it. Not mentioned in the unavailables.

I think it was more to do with his involvement in the match, one of the weakest games I've seen. Wonder if he was overwhelmed or out of sorts...

with SA's fast and small wingers, it might be a smart call to put Toole out there.

Toole is the fastest winger we have. He will get a start soon I would suspect. ”You can’t buy pace”.

I'm sure some people would accept snubbed, jilted, jettisoned

 

[capalaba]

Has Bell returned yet at club level? Seems crazy to parachute him in.

This is a poor selection call, Bell has ambeen injured 3 times with the same foot, Slipper is a libility. I thought Hodgman played well in the Georgia game. Schmidt has called the team too late, no time to work together. I think we are in for a thrashing.

Yes but you don’t “rotate out” the best players.

In the words of Coach Homer Simpson when he was coaching Bart’s little league team - now for my favourite part, the cuts.
