Haylett-Petty on Wallaby radar

The four players from the Force seems about right, only unlucky one is Faulkner because of the shortage of THP. Joe Powell Brumbies blindsided me but happy for him then Genia.

The selection of Palu is a joke, there is no way he deserves to be there on form. It is a shame Holloway is injured he was looking really impressive.

I really don't think Mike Harris or Luke Morahan are test standard but we are a bit short in those areas. Godwin really should have Mike Harris's spot with Beale and Toomua out but his form has not deserved selection.

Reece Hodge was a bit stiff to miss out, he has been good for the Rebels but still very young.

Having said all that Cheika justified his selections at the world cup so I am backing him.

Palu is baggage, but he'll probably get the gig, expect him to be a monster unless the Poms actually challenge him.

Runs hardest at people who run away from him

Palu is the ultimate flat track bully.

Shame Holloway got injured. He has it over Palu in spades.

I was just given reason to refer to an earlier post of mine where I said I wasn't sure about Izzy at 13. After tonight's game, I'm ok with it now.

Palu isn't a bully. You need to be intimidating to be a bully.
He's shown repeatedly he isn't up to that challenge.
Quite frankly he wouldn't scare a child even if he was standing over them with a chainsaw

Yep outstanding performance among a host of good ones. Gives DHP a better shot at selection if Cheika is thinking along that same line. The try (Hooper IIRC?) after Dennis burst down field was a cracker. Never expected to see Mumm break into the backfield and bung on a side step either. In fact I didn't think the Tahs had that performance in them at all one the evidence presented to date. Really enjoyed the match.

I only caught the second half - but the tahs were just all over the Chiefs. They were on another level last night and just went to town
