Has to be Noah at 10. I'm a Rennie fan, but the way that they have managed this kid over the last two years - in and out, originally not picked for last year's spring tour, filtered to media that he almost missed this year's - must be playing with his head. Give him a start and let him build some confidence. He has plenty to learn, but has done plenty good in gold too

Haven’t seen an explanation why yet but Simone won’t be called in to the squad. Perhaps they are holding off to see if Giteau is fit?

TBH, I think we need to get another winger. Is Sefa Naivalu still around? John Porch has been on a tear for Connacht and what about big Taqele Naiyaravoro? Think we should be done with T Wright.

I'd still really like to see Scott Sio brought in for this match, but accept that it won't be likely.

Hence :

Gibbon, Fainga'a, Tupou, Swain, Skelton, Hanigan, McReight, Samu, McDermott, Lolesio, Pietsch, Paisami, Hodge, Nawaqanitawase, Campbell.

Reserves : Lonergan, Slipper, Robertson, Neville, Gleeson, Gordon, Donaldson, Kellaway

Actually a bit worried for this game, we do need to name a strong team but also need to give some of the guys a rest.

Nah, Wright was mostly pretty good on the weekend... probably just needed to be subbed in that final 10 mins.

I know the line is "sweeping changes," but I wouldn't take Italy lightly...

Still, players who have played a lot of minutes need to be rested.

I assume AAA will be right to go - Tupou played 80 mins on the weekend and should probably come off the bench.

Slipper, Holloway, Valetini and Wright could all use a break, or at least come off the bench.

Obviously Skelton will start.

I'd also start Campbell again to keep his continuity flowing.

Don't think Pietsch is with the squad BR

My bad. Must have thought he should have been there. Getting low on outside backs stocks through injury and form. Maybe Foketi should be replaced with three games left to be played. Not like Simone for example isn't familiar with the Wallabies' structures and game play.
