[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1080658, member: 74121"] So why pick Kinghorn and not Hastings for the first 3 games? Townsend has clearly got it wrong at some point in this tournament in that question and in terms of the centres selections. It's just weird selection processes. The Italy game is ripe for experimentation but instead he picks two 'failed' 12s and a third guy who can cover 12. On Kinghorn my point is not for him at 10, but that he is a good player that has done nothing wrong in this tournament and provides solid cover in 4 positions (counting wing as 2). To me that is someone I put down as close to the first name on the squad list due to the excellent injury coverage he provides. Hastings can cover 12 so I'd have gone Hastings and Kinghorn and dropped Tuiplotu. [/QUOTE]
