    20. loganb - 1439
    63. Snake - 297

    I really don't think 15% in wing would make up for that.

    But post counts don't count for everything. AVA dominated from early on.

    The fact he has 15% shows he will have more tendencies to do things right. I'm only guessing but I think it would play its part in this sim as it would be based on probabilities.

    No point in saying "if" tbh. We don't so that doesn't matter.

    Yeah, but realistically, I'd much prefer a better player at wing than a good winger.

    For example, I'd much prefer Ben Foden on the wing than Paul Sackey. Not that you'll get that reference, but yeah. :p

    What happened to Paul Sackey? He was a gun.

    Nah not really had any major problems with Callum's selections tbh. Probably would have gone for Luffers over Pilgrim at the start and had an extra back rower on the bench in the first game but apart from that all is good.

    Really? I was the best choice halfback. There was no way anyone would've know that I was going to have a shit game.

    Tbf the only reason I would have played Luffers is he has been gun at 10 all season, and when he played 9 for GB against NZ he scored 4 tries and ripped the shit out of them.

    Fair reason imo :p yeah, in all fairness, Callum's selecting has been good imo.

    I've been gun at 9 all season. Not to mention I played good in the Aus/Qld games. Since we were choosing the 9 spot it would be right to choose me at 9, which was what happened. You would make a poor selector.

    T'was a pretty tough call, tbh. Luffers has played well all season, and then tore up in that GB game. However, as you've been playing with Eds all season and combined well with him, I would have gone with the established pairing too. Someone else playing at 10, and it would have been a close call.

    Nah fuck off. It's a 50:50 call in anyone's book. The tipping point for me would have been that Luffers scored 4 in the game he played at 9 for GB. Couldn't have had any complaints that you go picked which is why Ididn't make a fuss at the time. But I would have seriously considered Luffers after his NZperformance.

    I think Blunder should have a go on the wing. That way we can both play in the test side.

    14. Blunder
    15. Jacobs

    Wouldnt even matter who the other person at the back was, we'd rip cunts to shreds. Blunder to confirm.

    14. Jacobs imo

    Wouldn't even need any more in the full backline tbh.

    Test selection has shown this to be true. Giving any sort of power to a pom will always lead to failure.

    Yeah feel my persistent dredging of Gemmell's omission has been vindicated here.

    Who was the selector again? Stupid pommy cunts.
