[QUOTE="jomjom, post: 770083, member: 73037"] I don't think it's fair to say that without Pocock the Wallabies drop massively in quality. Yes, against Scotland where Pocock was missing, they fared a good deal worse, but I don't think that was exclusively because of Pocock's absence - I think they were just having a bad day in general (Ireland v Italy comes to mind), Foley for example had a pretty sh*t game... I think without Pocock they're still better than most NH sides, they have tons of quality players, but his absence is certainly felt. Anyways, bar that Scotland match I haven't seen Cheika era Oz play without Pocock so it will be interesting to see how do they fare in the future if he's ever not to play for whatever reason.
