Cheika will be hoping for plenty of areal shots of the scrums to prove that this bloke "scrummages illegally", (as he suggested a couple of days ago)!!

not sure how it's hooper's fault for playing to the coach's plan for the team.

what, he's just going to, in mid-game no less, go "fuck it, i'm going to go native, piss all of the coaches instructions and game plans to get stuck in the rucks"

The internet is a strange place.
When Teflon Hooper plays loose and wide with little impact he is playing to the coaches plan and when higgers does the same (except with more impact and tries) he gets shitcanned for being a seagull

If someone can get on Rugby Heaven and have a look, they have named the Aussie team but I can't open it as I'm over my free quota.

You can access rugby heaven as often as you like if you go incognito or if you delete history. Changes are: Douglas, Timpani, Phipps, Naivalu in; Arnold, Mumm, Genoa, Sleight out. No bench according to smh

I'm happy with those changes, Douglas and Sefa were both better than Arnold and speight last week.
So no bench yet but 1-15
1.Sio 2.Moore 3.Kepu 4.Douglas 5.Simmons 6.Timani 7.Hooper 8.Pocock 9.Phipps 10.Foley 11. Sefa 12.Hodge 13.TK 14.DHP 15. Folau

I'm happy with that 15.

Speight might have a long wait until his next chance now. Hasn't tied down his spot and it has now gone for the foreseeable future.
Injuries can make a mockery of statements like this though.

Douglas, Simmons and Mumm as our lock options.........?

Sheeesh........... one step forward two steps back, but prove me wrong.

Tough for Arnold and AAA. I would have thought Arnold for the first half full steam ahead would have been a good option and AAA has been very strong for the most part off the bench.
Are they injured or carrying a niggle or two?
