I would have Hunt in the team when it counts, he is good enough to push Folau to the wing

I'm just worried about a lack of pace with folau and dhp on wings. Or do you think that in every other regard it's better, therefore worth not having the out and out one on one ability of speight/naivalu?
I like wings who have the skills of a 15, safe under the high ball and knows where the try line is.
That kind of back three takes the kick out of a lot of the plans of attacking sides.
Pace? we don't score many runaway tries, neither does Speight, Naivalu would be more likely. I wouldn't be concerned with either of them being in the side
I don't mind the lack of extreme pace. DHP & Folau have the uncanny ability to always beat the first tackle. Couple that with Folau's offload and DHP's boot, their all round games will save / result in a lot more points than the out and out speed of Speight/Naivalu

We're definitely seeing a trend of the better wingers in the world also being accomplished fullbacks. Adam Ashley-Cooper, Ben Smith, Dane Haylett-Petty, Santiago Cordero, Willie le Roux, Lucas González Amorosino, Elliot Daly, Nehe Milner-Skudder, Jack Nowell, and Ruan Combrinck. But there are still plenty of amazing straight-up wingers out there, and it does come down to playstyle.
no real alternative is there?

I know - kinda damned if you do & assemble a squad early & start running mid week/Sunday sessions or damned if you don't & wait until the last minute to see who plays themselves into/out of a jersey (or who's last man standing in some cases)...
Either way, one thing for certain is we can be sure there'll be too many 'tahs in the squad

To be fair his game back for the wallabies was off the back of injury and got head knock pretty early.

Is that certain? If so then Hunt gets a spot. DHP is a huge loss....
