Canberran turned Tokyoite. Started rugby as a slim, smooth faced boy playing fullback, only to somehow end up in the middle of a scrum with the number 2 on my back…

Personally, I would have hoped the Brumbs kept him, they’re good at growing great props.
ANALYSIS: One huge weight off Eddie Jones' shoulders - but several glaring weaknesses he still must fix
OK, I agree his attack is very good, but he just looks too slow on defence.
Wallabies player ratings: Young forwards fire but key players struggle in Bledisloe heartache
Two things I thought from the game:
1. Faessler > Uelese
If Jones chooses Uelese over Faessler for WC somethings suspicious.
2. Foketi > Kerevi
Kerevi is looking slow in attack, and worse in defence. Maybe he isn’t the player he was last year? I would hope Jones is choosing on form rather than on promise.

Don’t think it’s his plan mate
Comment: Jones should go bold and pick young halves against All Blacks for MCG Bledisloe
I agree with you, but I guess it’s hard to just discard a very expensive winger…

Outrageous!

I guess that could be the reason, we know how good Marky can be, so give Suli as much time to (if possible) improve before WC?

You raise a good point. France, Ireland, AB, they make a line break and there are instantly support players around him, ready to ruck or collect an offload. For the Wallabies… is it a mental or physical thing? I think it’s the lack of the small efforts that start to disrupt our team. Take Koroibete for example, every line break he is there ready to keep the play alive. Compare that to Kerevi…
Wallabies player ratings: Wright's rocks and diamonds nature leave 15 jersey open for RWC, winger's perfect night
He will learn, let’s just hope “somebody” doesn’t f-up his development.

'Gutted': Cheika's Pumas steal dramatic win to confirm Eddie's worst Wallabies fears
Well if there’s one positive, we now know C. Gordon is a helluva player. Not afraid to make his tackles.

Lots of players returning from injuries is a bit worrying, otherwise looks like a strong side!
Wallabies CONFIRMED: 10 changes with McReight in for Hoops, Eddie's bench gamble, Rebel's debut and Suli dropped
If both can’t throw, might as well pick Faingaa as he is superior around the pitch.
