None of them because we aren't good at rugby football.
Except Skelton I suppose.

How's Valentini been going this season? Every test I see him in he seems to get better and better

Yeah he's class. Our best loosie and arguably the best in the comp behind Ardie.
British and Irish Lions warn Australia over potential contract breach
The British and Irish Lions have warned Australia they will be in breach of contract if they fail to release their Test stars for all tour games involving Super Rugby teams.

Hmm nil I kinda think it's a little unfair this.
Like let's be real the B&I lions weren't going to not tour Aus, and Aus have poor depth currently. I think some of the squad players should be released but ARU shouldn't be made to release their main guys
Sheesh, who cares about the midweek games anyway. Let them cotton wool some players if you want competetive tests

I cant believe Valentini is only 26. He seems to have been around for years.

...yep....that could do it
Aw that sucks. Especially Valentini, he's a real point of difference
Samu has a chance to make a late claim
The latest is it’s for Fiji and potentially first test though right?

Seems Skelton will miss the first test at least and probably the series. Not sure about Valetini.
Skelton plays 23 matches this year and gets injured as soon as he hits Wallaby camp. We are cursed.

Apparently Kerevi was up for this one but his club required a five figure insurance policy for his contract so they opted against his inclusion.
Shame really, as it would have been good to see if he was potentially up for a late inclusion.

There is one thing I don't understand about Australian rugby union's lack of good players. People say all the best rugby players in Australia go and play in the NRL. But in rugby league there is no position for players that are 6'7" beanpoles. So players with that physique are not going to the NRL. So why aren't the 6'7" beanpoles in Australia going to play rugby union? Why do Australia produce so few locks?
