[QUOTE="Kiwi_, post: 754942, member: 71618"] With the injuries Wales sadly have and the blistering form the Australians are in, I really can't see the Welsh getting a result here. In saying that, Cheika might not play his outright best team and there could be some changes. If he keeps the same 15 he had for England, I'm putting the Aussies at a bonus point win, 34 - 18. Biggar needs to pull out another MotM performance to try keep Wales in the game, expect George North to step up as well. If Australia make a number of changes, especially if he chooses to play Cooper, which I doubt, but you never know with Cheika, I think it will be a lot closer and Wales will have a good chance. But I just don't see a decent reason for him not to field his strongest 15, unless maybe just one or two positions he might rest or try to avoid injury in, Simmons, Folau or Pocock, but doubt it. I'll be watching Foley closely, I want to see if he can bring consistency to his game. Or if England simply just made him look good (which I get the feeling they did to an extent). [/QUOTE]
