[QUOTE="Larksea, post: 346086, member: 43875"] I like the idea of form over reputation as well but there is one little problem. This is the last all black series before the world cup, I honestly believe it's pretty much too late to blood new players. Do we really want to rely on players in a world cup when the most caps they will have is ~5 or so given that it's unlikely a player blooded now will play every game or even most gamess before then. I think less than a year out from the world cup the AB coaches will have tagged a group of ~35 players they are going to concentrate on as a 30man squad and a few backups to cover injury. And I also think the AB coaches will see Mills, Jane and Sivivatu as the best back 3 and Hore & Mealamu as the top hookers. And in the past both Hore & Sivi have returned from injury very well.
