Interesting. I would've gone with Papali'i
I guess it makes it easier to sub Dalton early and make more use of guys like Choat and Segner
-
I found this interesting from Vern Cotter in the decision of Tuipulotu over Papalii
Cotter said the decision to reinstate Tuipulotu was a case of it being the best man for the job.
“Because he’s very clearly the leader of this group and has been before. -
Come on guys he has the good oil at the time of posting. It's not his fault things change at the last minute.

Both of those public statements together are a slap in the face for Dalts.
It could be a blessing in disguise for him. Just concentrate on playing and being the best 7 you can be and cement your place in the ABs xv

Yes, he did. Which I thought was really strange. Seems to be some pr bullshit to make it look like one big happy family.

I think there has been a small error from the Blues media people though. When this was announced they should've had Cotter, Tuipulotu & Papali'i available to answer questions
That might've delayed the announcement (not sure if Dalton is training again?)
The media person should've predicted the dumb 'Dalton dropped' headlines. The rugby media is bored at this time of the year and will over hype anything
