[QUOTE="Count of Devonshire, post: 267274"] Would anyone else be not in the least bit surprised if the ghastly O'Connell picked up a mystery 'injury' in the next few days? I'd certainly pick the chap Hines above him, a fine piece of Highlands beef. I feel that Shaw ought to have been given the opportunity to start a game by now, but he still might have a chance in the second or third test depending just how badly Botha and Matfield make mincemeat out of the two Irishmen I expect 'Geech' to pick. As it is, in the predicted absence of Shaw, who really is a magnificent beast and a fantastic product of the Empire, I'd look for both Hines and the Welsh chap Wyn-Jones, who seems a decent fruit despite not quite having phlegm.
