Won't be there until the final 3 games or so, so therefore not realistic to include IMO.

Nope. Educated at TKS and played Aus Schoolboys. He's obviously got some Kiwi and/or Islander in him though..

EDIT: I got curious so I looked him up on Wikipedia, he was born in NZ, no idea when he came out here, and he returned to NZ to play for Bay of Plenty from 2015-2017

Went to Churchie. VC of Aus U20s while at Rebels (McMahon Captain). Made Super Rugby debut but had already signed 2 year deal with Bayonne. Came back via NZ

KOB does that mean he has to re-qualify to be considered at Wallaby level?

No he went to Kings, I watched him play one day. But just as further evidence:

The former Australian Schoolboys team member won a contract with the Super Rugby franchise after impressing coach Tony McGahan. A graduate of Sydney rugby nursery, The King’s School, 19-year-old Lalakai has been added as a supplementary squad member.

That's as dangerous a backline as anywhere in the conference (although I would swap in Gordon & Clark for Phipps & Rona on the bench in a 6/2 split).

My others:

Rebels: Genia, Cooper, Koro, Hodge, Meakes, Maddocks, DHP (Ruru, English in a 6/2)
Reds: McDermott, Stewart, Naivalu, Kerevi, CFS, Daugunu, Petaia (Sorovi, Hegarty, Paia'aua)
Brumbies: Lucas, Leali'ifano, Muirhead, Simone, Kuridrani, Pulu, Banks (Powell, Hawera, Speight)

I really wanted to give you a thumbs up but for me - replace CFS with Petaia and Hegarty to FB and CFS to bench -and you have nailed it...but gees that is harsh ok thumbs up coming your way

Man I love AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) at 13 for defence but by god I hate him there in attack

Yeh I do tend to agree once Foketi comes back shift AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) to the wing but still in terms of current options would start AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) at 15 until Foketi returns. But agree wing better for AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper).....

Haha thanks! CFS' first half of last year was very good - I'm happy to admit I've never been a huge wrap on him, but credit where it is due, he was very, very good. I also rate Hegarty highly.
