YES. kidney in 'shows some balls' shocker. the whole arguement for and oleary/sexton at 9/10, has been totally shot. he was responsible for 10 points on saturday. boss is as good defensivly and works well with sexton. i think boss will start the austrailia game actually, with redden and murray covering the rest.

my only quibbles would be leaving jennings and horan in favour of leamy and buckley. nice to see murphy get the nod. would love him to have a good tournement.

fitzgerald is unlucky, but his shocking 6 nations at 15 has come back to haunt him.

Being a subsciber to the forum allows you to create rugby threads, says so in the small print!

I'll keep adding updates here cos I know people are relying on them.

the number 10 is good at kicking the ball wide. he must practice a lot
