With all the players at his disposal why are we not just playing the best players in their best positions?? A 6-2 split will mean that Malins will sit on the bench until 75th minute just in case, how will he get Simmonds and Dombrandt on unless he completely unbalances the back row?? Ewels???
It's not fucking difficult to pick a better team for this game
Genge
George
Sinks
Lawes - he's a good if slightly lightweight lock so I'd swop him for Hill vs the Boks
Maro
Curry - not a world class 8 but a great 6 or 7 so play him there
Underhill
Dombrant - let him start with a balanced back row
Youngs - normally good against Aussies and no other experience in squad at all because some useless twat has never developed any more 9's
Smith - we know what Farrell can do so bench him and avoid having him try and dominate Smith by making all the calls from 12 as he did vs Cips in the SA test.
May
Manu
Slade
Radwan
Steward
Blamire, Rodd (captured), Hill, Simmonds, Mitchell - good game on debut so don't drop him from squad, Farrell, Malins
Not fucking tricky is it, you useless out dated self opinionated git
I know he wants to have a look at Quirke and the kid looks the business, but when someone comes in and performs as Mitchell did, it's not great to drop him and it perpetuates the back up 9 merry go round that allows no one but Ben Youngs to experience appreciable game time or put a run of performances together.
