Pocock's no Hooper, but he might be a hooker
Many of us have applauded Michael Hooper’s play at 7 for the Waratahs and Wallabies during the last two years. He rarely has a bad game and his style of play certainly fits the bill required by Michael Cheika and Ewen McKenzie.
Jed Holloway impressed me. He has a way bigger engine than I thought he had, played strongly the whole 80 minutes. He should be the Wallaby 8.
Hunt played well, AAC for me looked slow but he did a lot of talking in defence, organizing.
Rory O’Connor looked the goods, not so sure about Talakai but both did ok.
Send Latu back to club land. He has learnt nothing discipline wise and his throwing was terrible.
A vast improvement in defence from the Tahs but still some very sloppy handling issues.
There's a lot to like about the Waratahs, but the bad elements are still bad
