Ronaldson/Aki, Farrell kept too!
And Above all, Heffernan to start!! can't be happier with that selection!!
Just a bit worried about the overall youth of the halfbacks And back-three,
but it has to be a great game because I want to see that team the more we can in the future!
Think the issue is calling not jumping. Posted the stats on here before, 75% success in the lineout when Roux and Dillane start together. Hopefully they improve in this aspect because they can be a very good partnership.

Lineout could be a disaster.
Butler and Muldoon are handy lineout jumpers, I think but am not sure Masterson isn't bad either so that gives plenty of options and will hopefully shore it up a bit.
My worry is more Dillane and Roux being in the row together.

Craig's covering 10. No need to have three 10's in the 23.

He wasn't in the injury update, and it sounded like he had a poor game on the radio. Highlights show he missed a tackle badly for the first try too (the defensive line was also misaligned which falls at the feet of the two props, so he's wasn't the only one to blame), so I'm guessing dropped.
