[QUOTE="Brodizzle, post: 147585"] To be honest there are alot of people who should be in the squad who aren't, more about the selectors reliance on your older players eg. why bring over Cordingley? He is only 3 years younger then Gregan, why not blood a younger player? If you argue Mitchell shouldn't have been in the squad the same could be said for Gerrard, he hasn't done anything of worth to the Wallabies for years....plus despite the hype about AAC he really hasn't set the world alight, I saw him far too few times for the position he was playing last night, not to mention he injured Staniforth, who should have probably started ahead of AAC in the centres anyway.... ARC is no where near the level that the World Cup is, hell, Sam Norton Knight is actually not playing too bad in the ARC but damned if I'm going to approve him to play for the Wallabies, note: Beale's eventual melt down in the Super 14 compared with his form in the ARC, whole different levels. If Shepherd gets game time against Canada that'd be great, I personally think he will play with alot more vigour then he did in the ARC(I think that being left out of the world cup squad sapped alot of his motivation) and hopefully his play will click into place ala. Super 14. If Shepherd starts playing well he can be a whole lot better then any of the wingers on offer at the moment. [/QUOTE]
