[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 830138, member: 45598"] As of now I'd agree, he's only had three caps with two at 12, but he'll be 13 throughout the 6 nations for one of the better two nations and will likely reach a semi final in Europe so if form goes his way there's 9 matches that'll be watched to give him a chance. I don't see all that much between any of the guys in the conversation for 13 after JJ. Along with wing I think its the weakest position though, they'll be relying heavily on JJ making it through the tour because after him there's a big drop if no one throws their hand up in the next few months. This tour has a chance to pick some really young guys, I wouldn't waste that chance if I was Gatland because I think it'd help boost morale very quickly and lead to less injuries along the way.
