ReplyDeleteAndy ellis is definitely oh second best 9 if not the best we have! He still has plenty to give in the black jersey. Matt todds form can't be over looked either.
ReplyDeleteIf Piri can't make the side, Andy really has got no hope in hell.
DeleteYou can't look over Colin Slade for the ten jersey, he is playing with confidence and kicking well. Ben Smith should play at his natural position of fullback, where he is the best in the world. As for Andy Ellis at halfback? Hell yes!
ReplyDeleteSee my comment above.
DeleteThey usually name more forwards than backs. They will go for six props at the expense of a loose forward an outside back probably.
