[QUOTE="Black_Magic, post: 504227, member: 61329"] Yeah, but that versatility is both a big asset and a curse - I think players tied to one position develop some specific skills and get even better. As for that idea with Barnes, I'd vote for that, although he hasn't played well at all in the SR this year. But, as is the case with All Blacks' Nonu and few others, there are players that clearly step up in a national jersey. Barnes was awesome at the RWC last year. The other change I'd make would be to switch AAC to centre, he can play pretty much everywhere (with his weight he could even be useful in the scrum ;-) ), but I think 13 is the right place for him. McCabe & AAC seems like a terrific pairing to me. So, my Aussie backs would be, from 10 to 15: Barnes - Ioane - McCabe - Ashley-Cooper - Tomane (not really sure about this one though) - Beale Who is Cooper Vuna eligible for? [/QUOTE]
