[QUOTE="FrenchFan, post: 784651, member: 70871"] Good call on Maestri. I remember saying he was going to lose out to Jedrasiak. Competition is catching up with him. And he'd have been a target for ref and opposition after his citing. Suprised to see Yacouba Camara out. Burban in finally after 4 yrs wasted. Same for Machenaud and FTD. What a waste of 4 yrs for these kids. That backrow needs a big carrying 8 like Picamoles or Goujon. Won't get that with Chouly. Chouly is a transition player since he's the only 30 yo among the kids. They will pick him because there's nobody else around atm with enough caps and with Pica injured + previous selector didn't develop anyone else at 8. Chouly won't last 4 yrs under Noves. He'll get pushed out eventually by Picamoles, Camara and co. [I]Noves does not have a group of players who are fresh enough to play the high tempo rugby he can coach, not after a round of T14 last weekend and a 5 day recovery. Physical freshness and time with players who are on a completey different agenda than his. 2 key ingredients that are going to elude him.[/I] Wales will prob target new wing and run their tanks into Plisson's channel. If they don't butcher opps like Ireland did they should have a lead built by HT. Wales by 20-25pts [/QUOTE]
