Another change in the forward has Ben Landry playing at lock alongside Nate Brakeley. Nick Civetta went back to his club. Also starting is Psalm Wooching who will get a chance at flanker. Throwing him out against Chile is probably the most optimal time to test him out. Also starting in the back-row is Tony Lamborn and Cam Dolan.

I'm excited to see de Haas and Lasike get some time.
ReplyDeleteDe Haas and Lasike both looked good today- accurate, quick passing from the 21, and tough, hard running and tackling from Lasike. Wow, and what a treat to see 2 debutantes get tries. Psalm had a great match, too- what a tough kid.
ReplyDeleteRight now at 9, I'd put Davies #1, de Haas #2.
