[QUOTE="turmeric2015, post: 690158, member: 71874"] Hey bro, agree pretty much with your team. Pretty much the only contentious positions are Starting 10 and bench 10. I go Cruden/Barrett. 1, Crockett 2, Coles 3, O Franks 4, Whitelock 5, Retalick 6, [B]Kaino[/B] - Kaino starts at 6 if he's fit, with loose forward bench cover being Cane (Messam if Kaino still out) 7, McCaw 8, Read 9, A Smith 10, [B]Cruden[/B] - For sure I think they should start with Cruden, and as I've said before, I think Barrett has become the preferred bench cover at 10, regardless of the starting 10. His ability to cover fullback, and his pace has got him that spot. 11, Savea 12, SBW 13, Conrad Smith 14, Ben Smith 15, Israel Dagg 16, Mealamu 17, Ben Franks 18, [B]Faumuina[/B] - Faumuina gets bench spot as well over Moody. 19, [B]P Tuipalotu [/B] - I think Tuipolotu is the preferred bench cover at lock, despite how well Thrush played last week. That being said, Thrush may be rewarded for his tremdous performance. I just don't think he has the impact the coaches are looking for coming off the bench that Tuipulotu offers. 20, [B]Sam Cane[/B] 21, [B]Perenara[/B] - Perenara should get spot on the bench. 22, [B]Barrett[/B] 23, Fekitoa That's my preferred "best" AB team right now and what I hope they play v Wales!
