Yes.

Re Kellaway, I think we established last year he is a player who needs to be on the end of a good backline. From memory he was pretty average for the Rebels last year too before getting selected for the Wallabies and getting that WR (World Rugby) Rookie of year Gong. I'm happy to let Rennie decide.

Again strange comment. He played only a handful of games last year after rejoining the team when he finished his contract in Japan. Kinda like Hanigan is this year. Was sensational against the Crusaders which caught Rennies eye.

I think Kellaway’s strength is he is a smart player who works hard off the ball and makes very few mistakes. If he is ‘flashy’ at all it is only in the sense that he’ll make a play work by turning up in the right spot, running the right line or making a good read. He’s the sort of player that makes playmakers look good, extends line breaks and makes his tackles.

That’s what I thought he did on Friday night.

He plays like many of those underappreciated Kiwi backs, he just does the job consistently well and can be relied upon deliver every week

Not performing at the Rebels? He ain't alone there

Front row and half backs were close, back 3 very difficult to pick stand outs

Hoopert, Valetini, the two Gordon’s and any other fullback strong options.

* subject to being Wallabies eligible - can someone confirm.

I'll openly admit that I've got too many Reds and Tahs and not enough Brumbies, but this is the way my highly complex algorithm calculated things - I think it must be the infamous 'quality of opposition' variable. However Sio, Lonergan, Valetini, Brown and Muirhead would all be on the bench.
