[QUOTE="kbourke88, post: 127591"] Obviously not a Huxley fan. Gonna have to disagree with you. He has made some school boy errors this year but I thought he was really solid on the weekend. When everyone around him was losing there heads throwing stupid passes he was calmly raking the ball 60m down field getting us out of trouble and finding touch. Gerrard is to slow to be a winger. I sill have visions of McCaw mowing him down from behind in Brisbane last year. Any half decent finisher would have scored that try. 4 of his 7 tries last year came against that B grade England team which was like shooting fish in a barrell. I rate AAC. He just signed a 4 year deal with the Brumbies and the ARU so obviously the coaches and selectors do to. Big prediction for the team against NZ. Despite his good game on the weekend Knuckles won't be able to get over his lack of size and Hoiles will move back to the bench. McMeniman will play 6 and Elsom 8, although Smith will play 8 on attack. Hoiles will come on after 50 when the game opens up. I don't completely agree with it but I've been watching John Connolly coached teams all my life an I reckon he'll push for McMeniman.
