He is an average prop who has played zero Super Rugby minutes this year. Selecting him ahead of Zane is not selecting on form.
Bell in the tight yes, Tupou is terrible in the tight, fantastic at scrum time and with ball in hand.

I find it pretty weird that there is any expectation for a pro coach like Schmidt to pick "on form".
Super Rugby round games finished nearly 3 months ago. There is no form for non-test players
Joe Blow
Peter Sullivan (51)
You sound like someone in the know? He has always stood up technically at scrum time and has been busy at the coalface. I presume JS and Mike Cron feel the same way. Angus Bell started after not having played for anybody for how many months?

Any feedback appreciated. Not too sure about the front row, could definitely could have Bell in there. Also not too sure about the centre positioning with Paisami out.

As well as a loosehead can go I think in a middling team. Started every game, didn't let himself down nor set the world on fire. I don't remember him getting much attention from commentators but I've never really seen any Aussie props go OS and get praise.

Robertson has no form in 2024 and Schmidt stipulated his selection criteria.
And he shouldn't have been selected over Zane is my point.

Where did Schmidt do that?
I've heard Nongorr snores and no-one want to share a room with him
Robertson has great form for carrying a tackle bag, being the 4th choice LH and 3rd choice TH, and getting 10 mins at the end of one of the games, while keeping spirits up with stories of the Oxford College initiation rituals. He's the perfect guy to take on tour.
He's also a doctor so can safely administer the backroom performance-enhancing injections that they usually rely on some impressionable easily swayed student to do
(note none of this is true)
For those that can't read, Schmidt said he will select on form.
