I hope we don't make too early subs this time.
It's not a good idea to play O'Connar at Number 10, his not a play maker at all. Deans should get over himself and call up Cooper
I'm going Australia all the way this week. Huge decider in Sydney!
SOB would be playing I think if Philips wasn't being rested. It's the only reason I can think of that Lydiate is on before him. There to do a job on Genia. The back row talent is extremely high.
They won't have a double change at centre if they lose. It'll be one or the other and to be honest the only way Tuilagi will start either will be because of injuries. The 3 preferred centres are BOD JD JR. And Gats has already played North in the centre also so that might well be a thought in the back of his mind too....
Big Test for the centres; if they lose I expect Roberts & Tuilagi to start next week. What does SOB have to do to get onto this team? Mystifying. Otherwise good team
“Mike was fit and available. He’s had problems with a sore knee so he hasn’t been able to take a full part in training. The decision was to rest him,” Gatland said.
“He’s potentially an important component of next weekend. All of the nines have done a great job and we felt it prudent to make sure he was 100% for next week by giving him a few days off his feet.”

Bad decision not to start o Brien major player in the side think people are underestimating youngs tho great talent he on form quick at the breakdown great choice over Philips , Murray might be a bit of a gamble as cover but hope he plays well
