I have a feeling QC (Quade Cooper) is going to pull a big one out of the bag in this game.
If he fires on all cylinders and hits the turbo when needed, it could get very messy for the Rebels.

Hopefully "Dead Man" has a game plan. Hopefully the plan can be achieved by the players.

Holmes should start especially after his performance last week.
Shatz will grab the 8 spot and Curtis relegated to the pine.
Will be interesting if Taps retains a starting spot or mrides the pine - I thought he wasn't very good last week.
Still reckon Pickle should get a start over Genia. Jeez the bloke has paid his dues and Will isn't going very well at all. But I;m sure RG will stay the course with Wll.
Also reckon QC (Quade Cooper) will be better and the runners around him, both inside and out, will be more in tune with him. Look forward to some direct running this week

Hopefully Beau will get a bench spot. Hard to be anything else with Thomson, Gill and Shatz - Reckon we'll see some fire from him when and if he gets on

How much attention have you been paying Scubber? Taps came off the bench last week and was pretty good. Ant was ok.
I'd prefer Taps

The penalty was stupid but that wasn't what lost us the game.
Taps has been one of our best backs even with his limited time. The week before the bye he came on and topped the run metres, line breaks and maybe even tackles I think for all the backs and he did it with about 15-20mins game time from memory.
I'd prefer Taps too!

Taps was very good. Consistently a couple of years back - he made the Wallabies - he just isn't playing great football
He seems to have that little jink nearly every time he touches and runs the ball.
Dare I say it - he just seems predictable

I'm certainly not blaming Taps for losing the game.
Every player makes mistakes. Every player
My point re Taps is the level of consistent good play.

Taps has had very little game time. What he has done with it though is contribute more than guys that have three times the minutes.
He is one of the quickest guys in the team over 40m and is the perfect guy to have outside Quade and inside of Kerevi. You're entitled to your opinion Scrubber but I simply can't agree. I'm not sure you're watching him closely enough.
In any case, I hope they start him at 12 this weekend and let him have a good crack. He will add more than Ant I reckon. With the exception of Simmons we c old potentially field our strongest XV yet.
Slipper, Fainga'a, Holmes
Dules and Horwill
Thomson, Gill, Browning
Genia and Cooper
Kuridrani, Taps, Kerevi, JOC (James O'Connor) & Turner
Talakai, Daley, Hansen, Schatz, Kotze, Robinson (if fit), Fainga'a, Hunt, Frisby. Omit one depending on whether bench is 6/2 or 5/3.
EDIT: I really wanted to name Graham on a nine man bench with an asterisk next to his name and a note that said one to be omitted.
