The Other Kellaway. It would save the McCalmans driving in from Cumnock and from @Lee Grants reports, Nick Kellaway was the second unluckiest New South Welshman to play

^^^ Good call. Nick can cover 4/5 at a pinch as well. Has he played any games at 8, although Korczyk seems to have a vice like grip on that guernsey?

Jack Mack may be a little bit on the light side to be a notta 6/8 replacement. He strikes me as a 7 that can cover 6/8 at a pinch if there is a Yellow Card/Red Card to the 6 or 8.

Jack Redden is on a plane tonight.

Has played 8 and has probably 12 kg on McCalman. Pretty quick for a big guy, but his brother would beg to differ

This is like questioning the Heads of Public Service Department at Senate Estimates time.

Information is coming out on trickle feed rate, and only after the question has been asked 15 times.

So ... ... ... we have a half back and an outside back en route to Italy to replace one of the seemingly match fit halfbacks, and Conrad Quick.

A notta 6/8 is allegedly in a moon boot on the plane home, with seemingly no one on the plane to replace him. Possibly Nick Kellaway, or Hamish Dunbar/Jack MacCalman should be there to replace him. Any one???

Aaron Pleash is also allegedly crocked. Have we got any Pot Plants ready to join the team in Italy? Vuni Fifita, Francis Brown perhaps?

I am going to read my book / sleep and see how I go for the Australian game.

But whilst it is a shame that we lose Lolo, Wilkin is a damn good player. Obviously we are a chance to be bashed off the ball, but I would think we should outwork them (with that backrow) - and I am sure will play accordingly.

Hope we can go with them. We should be aiming to win, always.

South Africa just committed two cynical penalties in a space of a minute five metres from their line and yet no yellow card?

Let's hope the energy sapping heat (they already had a mandatory drinks break half way thru first half) will affect the Saffies more than us...

Yellow card ... ooh almost....

Thank god they don't have any subtly.

Not that they will need it, by the looks.
