[QUOTE="gsv, post: 283786"] I forgot... For the hooker, I think they should have picked De Malmanche (muscular beast) or Hika Elliot. Corey Flynn is the past, they are the future. De Malmanche's throw it's not much worse than Hore's, in the end, so that shouldn't be a fair reason to drop him. Elliot has slowed his development, probably, but he should have been considered more closely. The props are surely good choices. Big Jamie Mackintosh is my favourite, but I admit he still isn't quite there (and having him to play with such a short hooker as Rutledge in the Stags doesn't help him to impress; I would say switch Rutledge to the loose forwards and put Hall back up front - but this is another story). I think Afoa as a hooker is just superstition: they simply hope the others don't get injuried. [/QUOTE]
