[QUOTE="darwin_23, post: 284646"] Wallabies named 15. Adam Ashley-Cooper, (Brumbies) 14. Peter Hynes, (Queensland Reds) 13. Ryan Cross, (Western Force) 12. Berrick Barnes, (Queensland Reds) 11. Digby Ioane, (Queensland Reds) 10. Matt Giteau, (Western Force) 9. Will Genia, (Queensland Reds) 8. Wycliff Palu, (NSW Waratahs) 7. David Pocock, (Western Force) 6. Rocky Elsom, (Brumbies, captain) 5. Mark Chisholm, (Brumbies) 4. James Horwill, (Queensland Reds) 3. Ben Alexander, (Brumbies) 2. Tatafu Polota-Nau, (NSW Waratahs) 1. Benn Robinson, (NSW Waratahs) Reserves: 16. Stephen Moore, (Brumbies) 17. Matt Dunning, (Western Force) 18. Dean Mumm, (NSW Waratahs) 19. George Smith, (Brumbies) 20. Luke Burgess, (NSW Waratahs) 21. Drew Mitchell, (Western Force) 22. James O’Connor, (Western Force) From a AB's fan I couldn't be happier to see George Smith relegated to the bench - while Pocock is undoubtedly talented I don't think he is at the same level as Smith (yet). An otherwise predictable side, though I thought they may have played Ioane at centre (where he was so effective in the Super 14) and started Mitchell on the wing - maybe they thought it would be a gamble as I don't think Ioane has started a game at centre for the Wallabies. AB's side to be announced later today - by all accounts it should be very similar to the side that played the last test, apart from Sivivatu replacing Rococoko on the wing, Smith replacing Toeava at centre, and possibly So'oialo replacing Read at 8. Edit: I should really learn how to spell "Wallabies" - I would change it but I don't know how (or if I can) edit the ***le of the post though...... [/QUOTE]
