Take Stocker for example, why put him in the 30 if you then cull the kid....or Fas for that matter (or any of them really)

I suspect that the players know whether they will be taking the field or providing injury cover. How often do you hear a surprise, last minute selection say, "Bolts told me I was playing on Thursday"? The 30 man squad is just to maintain supporter interest and keep the opposition guessing.
