Just reinforces how well McCalman is playing. Yet most proposed Wallabies line-ups coming out don't even have him in the 23.

Do we know how many games each 8 has played? I know Ben has missed 1 througn suspension and Palu 1 or 2 with injury.

Good stats work there TG. Look how much work the big dog is getting through.

Jake Schatz is useless

[BeeJay]

Jake Schatz is useless

So is Mowen.

[Kept One]

Ben McCalman will expose Dave Dennis on Saturday and you can add another useless to the pile.

[WFDom]

So is Mowen.

Quade Cooper's had less missed tackles!

[jargan83]

So is Mowen.

Yeah but everyone already knew that.

He's probably counting Euro's already
