    If the other 14 in the starting XV pick up one week inuries as well we might keep it to a tow score defeat

    I suppose that means JOC will start now. A far better play if you ask me.

    Has Mitchell played any rugby since his injury? I think it will be the same backline that started against Italy except with O'Connor in for Ioane

    Faingaa was poor at 13 against Italy. Deans is never afraid to drop players (are you watching Kidney) so I think AAC will start at 13 and Mitchell will come in on the wing.

    Which, if Mitchell has anything close to the sharpness he had pre-injury, actually makes their back line stronger disturbingly.

    He scored 2 tries for Australia Barbarians (really Australia A) against Fiji a few weeks ago.
