[QUOTE="Bada-Bing!, post: 913498, member: 70552"] Personally would have preferred NMS to come in on the right wing. Still love his side step. Maybe still needs a couple more Mitre 10 Cup matches under his belt before AB selectors will pick him. No doubt they are keen on Jordie at 15, but not the expense of Smith pushed to the right wing imo. Still frightening how much depth ABs have in their backs, it’s their pack which is so formidable and not surprisingly remains unchanged; basically the 5 of the Crusaders pack plus Squire, Cane and Rettalick Brodie was a complete beast in Bledisloe 1 - in the scrum, lineout, breakdown and still had the gas to hang out on the wing, throw that dummy and score a try. Maro can only watch this guy play and aspire to that standard. Will be the interesting to see how much Cheika changes the Wallabies line up. Certainly one or two in the pack - one of the front row and second row, as at least two will pay for the scrum and lineout woes. Who will replace Folau - Haylett-Petty or Beale back to Full back with Toomua to 12? [/QUOTE]
