    Rumoured team from a guy on reddit who claims he knows someone in the AB camp...

    "Dagg injured, Mckenzie at full back, Ben Smith and Rieko on the wings. SBW and Crotty. Read, Cane and Squire in the loose. The rest of the squad the same as BIL series. Dan Coles out for the series 😞 "

    I hope not.

    Surely you'd want 15. Ben 14. Nehe 11. Rieko ?

    Well, if they want to try DMac then I guess having Smith to help him out would be good for the transition. I don't really think Nehe has shown any form yet?

    @antipodean More worried about Coles than the team he's predicting... if he's proven to be correct.

    I'm ok with DMac at the back. Let's see if he can hack it at the highest level and having Smith at the back will definitely assist him.

    Or 15 Ben 14 Naholo 11 Rieko. Not a trio that would work against every team but Wallabies id be more than comfortable.

    We definitely need to have a look at Squire with the first choice pack around him.. But I would be a little surprised as Kaino was the player on media duty yesterday

    @Duluth Good point. Normally the starters are the ones who do the PCs.

    Skudder has been released to Manawatu. I assume they want him getting more game time.

    Then KiwiMurph's suggestion it is.

    If a Wallaby winger had to be named, then I would have taken Tuqiri.

    Nah. Roff's try scoring record and ability to beat a man on the outside was far superior to Lote's.

    @Tim Aaron Smith. The Aussie media have chosen a perfect time to leak this. Dirty scoundrels.

    @Tim text messages between Aaron Smith and the toilet bird have leaked to the press - the texts are not a good look for Aaron Smith/nzru
