Changes things.

That sums up his career over the last few season. Made of glass.

It will be interesting to see who comes in the AB squad announced tonight to replace Crotty and S Barrett.
My first thought is they might lean on bringing in a 13 rather than a 12 to replace Crotty as they already have plenty of cover for 12 (ALB, Laumape, SBW, Goodhue can play 12) whereas not as much at 13.
The names that come to mind for 13 would be Ennor or Proctor.
For Barrett I'd assume they'd replace him with a lock (rather than a 6) so someone like IWL, Franklin or Parkinson?

Proctor would have to be the next rated midfielder after the top 5. He's been there before (vs Japan) and Ennor showed he isn't ready as a centre yet.
Rieko could be used again as midfield cover.

@taniwharugby TJ Faiane - covers 12/13. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
@KiwiMurph I think that is tongue in cheek but he is not good enough.

@NTA @barbarian @antipodean great news Wallaby fans, your season is saved!! James O'Connor. Yes, that's right the James O'Connor has put pen to paper and is eligible for the Wallabies again this year. Your worries are a thing of the past.
Superb.
Enough of these Bible-bashing Folau types; back to good old, over-privileged white boy, cocaine-fuelled bad haircut shenaningans.

In the old days all the Coke they got through was just to add finish to the Bundies!

Squire is an interesting one.
If the lack of time on the field due to injury wasn't enough, the lack of time due to yellow card...

From NZ Rugby's official release: "Unavailable for selection: Liam Squire has also made himself unavailable as he felt he wasn’t ready to return to international rugby at this stage."
