[QUOTE="Thingimubob, post: 858178, member: 20956"] Heh. I too would find it hilarious if he picked Cuthbert for the lols. Have a feeling he's crocked either way after the game earlier today (didn't play too shabbily though, credit where credits due and all that) Hey! You stay away from our Dacey! Damn creepy Pepes... Tbf he's quality in my eyes (hey, he's a Cardiff boy, I'm bound to think that) and probably would do a pretty decent job if he did end up in the squad, on the bench for the mid-week team or something. However, he is still a young promising player who's only just had his first start for Wales, so shouldn't really be the next in line for the Lions. I mean if he progresses like I'm hoping, and challenges Ken for the Wales 2 jersey in the coming seasons then who knows, he might be chucking his hat into the ring in 4 years time - but right now? No. Hill isn't getting called up. Not with Gray in the area, let alone picking the guy who should've been in the squad anyway, Launchbury. That said, anyone remember the reaction when Wade got called up last time? Don't think he's played a huge amount for England when they flew him to Aus, so was a little left field, can't remember any fuss though? Not that it mattered that much, him and most of the others called up around the same time (Twelvetrees, Barritt, etc.) never got a look in to the test squad anyway - I doubt whoever is selected here will either, barring injury crisis.
