    Who should start at fullback for the Wallabies against the All Blacks

    i was just looking on the wallabies website and their current poll is

    'Who should start at fullback for the Qantas Wallabies against the All Blacks in Hong Kong? '

    i just voted and out of ashley cooper, turner (ewww) and drew, take one guess at who is winning

    but who should it be? my vote is kind of obvious, but really, drew should be on the wing instead of lote, not at fullback. with hynes at 14 (my first choice at fullback but again, we need him on the wings) and ashley cooper should be covering the bench. and that leaves turner. the tah. who cannot catch. and screwed up his wallaby debut BADLY...

    so who should it be?

    its a development tour.. as much as it pains me to say, but should turner be given another shot?

    “Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together. The man is a legend!”- Jake White

    if he has a few average games the look at other options
    but turner should be introduced on the wing
    then during the game mayeb switches to fullback
    much like sheps and drew do at the force

    but he has already had his average games. infact, every game is an average game with the odd sparkle of skill. i reckon it's someone elses turn. only question is who.

    (i didnt mention lote in the above list because he is too busy being lote-bashed to play)

    i want robbie to try hynes at fullback. he has the kicking game for it and i reckon he would be brilliant

    beg to differ
    he has been solid all year
    yes he has cocked up but he still relatively new to international rugby
    this european tour is what is either going to make him or break him

    i think we are going to have to agree to disagree. he has been solidly rubbish.
    he was thrown into a position he doesnt play regularly but the way robbie kept him there bad game after bad game was beginning to frustrate the hell out of me!
    he made his debut is 2005, so he isn't that new..

    the only reason i get for his consistantly un-good rugby is that its just not a natural position for him
