No, I don't think that is the point BamBam was trying to make. It is not about being crap and getting dropped, rather if neither White nor Genia had put in standout performances and he only wanted to take two halves to the RWC, then it would make sense to take Genia over White.
Genia has had a half game against the Springbok before going off with a knee injury which who knows hampered him for how long in that half. He played OK but nothing out of the box.
White last weekend came on for what, 12 mins & had a blinder. Cheika I think is showing the smarts. He wants to see White get some real game time to allow Cheika to make an informed decision, in that Phipps also came on when the opposition were becoming weary against the 'bok and also put on a blinder. But was only ok against the Argies, and we all know how he played last weekend.
The halves for the RWC team is a real poser. If White plays a good game, I'm predicting he & Genia (assuming near injury recovery) will get the coaches' nod.
