NBs Final Practice Match

[Baggers]

Good to read Baggers cheers, any one you think put there hand up for selection seriously?

There were a few blokes who staked a claim for promotion for different reasons. The problem is who would they replace? SPS and Pickett were both pretty ordinary today but they're learning and need to be out there - ditto Charlie and SOJ. And BB is not your wholesale changes kind of guy.

Graham (on last week's effort) and Palmer both deserve a shot but neither is quick. Boekhorst would be a chance - was his best today for a long while. Kerridge gets it well but then gives it to the opposition.

I'd be tempted to bite the bullet and rest Casboult... he's giving very little. Jones rucked a bit today and was okay.

Gus and Galucci probably need another run but would have to be real close to a call up.

You could only see one or two changes unless there are injuries - if SOJ doesn't come up, then in Harry as a third tall. If Daisy's injury doesn't come up, then Palmer or Boekhorst (gulp!).

Good to see SOS, BB and other coaches there today. BB... lose the Hollywood sunglasses, standing there in overcast conditions with huge designer sunglasses on a small head was a tad embarrassing - I've seen car windscreens smaller than those sunglasses
