[QUOTE="Jack Reacher, post: 607440, member: 70405"] It seems a player around 30 will be given the same chance as a player of 23-24. There is no point dropping Mealamu and co just 'incase' they don't perform in 2015. All those aforementioned older players didn't perform at Super Rugby level so were judged by their test performances alone - what a different season we would have had if there was no Woodcock, Hore, Nonu, Mealamu etc they should be picked no matter what. PS If they weren't in the reckoning Hanson would have dispatched them like Weepu and Williams, accept maybe Hore as there was no one else. It will be obvious if there is a better player about, look at Muliaina/Dagg at last WC. I fear as a DC fan we may see his star fade naturally if Cruden has another brilliant season next year....?
