      Eddie Jones is already thinking about picking Harry Potter for the Wallabies, but having seen him play for Leicester Tigers Eddie knows he only plays well in spells.

      True that but Eddie has created an exciting new position for Harry at 9 and 3/4. Harry says it has given him a great new platform to train.

                        @Stargazer I hope he shifts to fullback, or another position beyond 10.

                              I do find it funny they mention his NZ mother player for the Oz women's team - it should be enough that he was born and raised there without the need to add that Oz poached his Mum. 😉

                              Also, I'd take TKB in a heartbeat for the ABs, especially over the Ginga.

                                it would be huge for rugby in general but especially in aus if the wallabies could snatch the cup leading into 2027, they need to do EVERYTHING they can to win

                                  Given the draw and their capability to put out a dangerous 23, I’d not be surprised to see Oz in the final.

                                  They’d likely get a very tired team from the other side.

                                  Ideal opportunity for Eddie.

                                  Injuries will be crucial for them.

                                          @Kiwiwomble Yep, and there's not much variation possible if you want the main colour to stay the same.

                                          You'll almost certainly come back to something that's been tried before.
