[QUOTE="melon, post: 127307"] Whilst I agree with you in saying Mitchell should have the last wing spot, I think Gerrard should be played at fullback to see how he goes. The only problem is that Latham is returning for the next Tri-Nations game which will be against NZ at home and it looks like Latham will be picked as starting fullback. As a result of it being Latham's first game of international rugby for some time I think Connolly should and most likely will bring Latham off in the last 20 minutes of the game depending on how the game is playing out, with Gerrard coming on Then there is Staniforth. I really really want to see this guy get more of a run. He needs to prove his worth. He'll most probably get a run against some of the lesser nations in the pool matches of the RWC to press his claim. Although I said I'd like to see Gerrard given a run at fullback, I'd still prefer Latham there, and with Mitchell and Staniforth there and given they put in good performances, Gerrard may find it very hard to stay in the 22.
