[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 585966, member: 20605"] I have voted Toomua because I believe he is their best prospect at 10, but I hope they do pick Cooper. This would be good for us, because, as Larkesea correctly suggests, the All Blacks know how to exploit his defensive weaknesses. If they try the failed tactic the Reds did (same coach remember) against the Crusaders, of hiding him at the back, they will get found out big-time. Another point is that, while IMO James O'Connor isn't really a 10, I think he has received more criticism than he deserves for his performances against the Lions. Its hard to show any great distribution skills you might have when you are back-pedalling due to the fact that your forwards are having their arses handed to them. [/QUOTE]
