[QUOTE="Brigantine, post: 860094, member: 73940"] So the starting XV has 282 caps between them - an average of 18.8 each, and 73% are from Super Rugby. Meanwhile there are 173 caps on the bench - an average of 21.6 each, and 75% are from Super Rugby. My prediction is already wrong! It's like they're not even trying to win. Compared to last week: 1 - Inagaki (15 caps) moved to the bench, replacement has just 5 caps (-10) 2 - Horie (51 caps) moved to the bench, replacement has just 2 caps (-49) 3 - Ito (6 caps) is out of the squad, replacement off the bench has 7 caps (+1) 4 - Yatabe (14 caps) moved to the bench to make way for reinforcements to the tune of 63 caps (+49) 7 - Tokunaga (6 caps) moved to the bench, replacement has 7 (+1) 9 - Tanaka (60 caps) moved to the bench, replacement has only 5 (-55) 10/12 - The 12 Lafaele (6 caps) is dropped from the squad. Tamura (44 caps) moves from 10 to 12, the new 10 (3 caps) wasn't in the 23 last week (-3) 13/14 - The 13 Tupou (1 cap) is dropped from the squad. Matsushima (24 caps) moves from 14 to 13, and reinforcements arrive on the wing with 22 caps (+21) On the bench - Hendrik Tui (40 caps) and Carpenter (1 cap) are dropped, replaced by Watanabe (9 caps) and Yamanaka (10 caps). (-22) Overall that's 45 caps rotated out of the starting XV, but the bench has been reinforced by 98 caps. [/QUOTE]
