One of the things I like about Cheika is he gets his team in early. Means they're training together for as long as possible.

Would have preferred Skelton starting and Palu coming off the bench, still the Brumbies won't be happy about getting bashed for 50 minutes then seeing the big man trot on.

given that Walsh is the ref I suggest the "one to be omitted" should be Hoiles

Is Steve Walsh the ref? This means we are guaranteed for him to take centre stage for 5 minutes while he makes a routine TMO call. He is truly insufferable and one of the most frustrating referees on the circuit.

Carraro is out for the season with a shoulder injury, Alofa is at odds I wouldnt be suprised if crawford starts

That's a shame. I'm sure Carraro would have been in the squad for the majority of the matches remaining if fit.

Alofa has been named to start already. Team is at the top of this page.

Chiek on occasion changes the side a bit from that named early in the week. Particulary the make up of his bench

But Taqele and Crawford are both on the bench to cover wing. That tells me Alofa is doubtful and if he drops out one of these two will start. The most worrying thing is that Taqele is named first. His rugby defence has still got L plates. If Alofa is out I dread having Taqele facing Speight at full throttle.

funny, I think he is one of the best at using the TMO
