Just read this from Eddie Jones on GAGR .
"I will leave it for others to argue the merits of individual selections in the respective positions, but I hope to see selections based on the holistic filling of the required skill sets for each specialist position, rather than a continuation of an overall philosophy of selecting to execute a specific game plan, at the expense of the ability to play a wide range of game plans with balance."
I TOTALLY AGREE...is this the problem we are all having with Robbies selections. Choose your best 15 players then base a game plan around the best talent. It is driving us all nuts watching genuine "x factors" not being selected. JOC (James O'Connor), Beale, Cooper.............. one thing they all have is the ability to read the opposition and change tact if need be. You pick big backs to bash at big backs and if their big backs are better at it you lose because you have no plan B.
This is Wallaby rugby lets run em ragged or turn them around until they get so dizzy they fall over.
