I think I mentioned that Jones would talk Ford up after the last game and then quietly drop him. I see Aust have 3 debutants including a 6ft 10 type

I know there's pressure etc pulling on the shirt, butI really think Stevie Wonder might have done better than ford last time with some of those kicks.
Was it 1 from 7 or something?
I've never even see a minnows kicker get those sort of percentages, actually felt sorry for the bloke.

Ford DROPPED... wowza... bigger surprise is Jack Nowell on the bench... he's up there with any world class back at the moment... lot of talk Itoje going back row which I think would have been interesting... very very strong bench (Ford apart)... Roll on saturday

Fazza' has been absolutely outstanding this season... had a lot of obstacles put in his way and has overcome them all... playing at the absolute top of his game at the moment.

I was one of Farrell's biggest critics, but he has stepped up his game and continues to do so, he's world class now (though that's probably jinxed him forever)
I see Itoje moving to 6 in the second half and I see that then continuing into the next game with him starting there

I like that team a lot. Very agile and pacey but still strong where it needs to be.

Australia are terrible right now, Folau aside.
If they picked a Super Rugby XV, I'm not sure they would have more than him in the entire squad.
