Australian's call up Smith, Mogg and Tapuai

Suprised that he wasn't in the initial squad. The guy is immence. Another problem for us to worry about at the breakdown. . .

Only fair that I include Mogg and Tapuai aswell. Some big changes coming in for the second test?

Maybe him and Hooper will be the centre partnership next week

Surprised they haven't called up more back cover given the pounding they took yesterday.

Am i wrong in thinking that the three players who left with "suspected concussion" during the game can't play for a couple of weeks under IRB regulations?

Not sure how concussions are handled in Oz.  However, I believe if the scans are negative and the neurological tests are negative, then the player can return the following week.  

Mogg will probably go straight to fullback.  Tapuai would probably be cover for the centres.  George Smith?  WE if he is recovered from his injury, then that is one more top class player for the Wallabies.  But, I get the feeling he would be on the subs bench.

The article says that Leili'ifano should be fit to play on Saturday.  He was clearly knocked out cold yesterday and to my uneducated eye it looked as if the lights stayed out for a brief period afterwards.  Surely he should avoid contact for a couple of weeks after that?  Test match rugby seven days later, and presumably some level of training between now and then, seems a bit risky.

Surprised at Smith being called up to be honest. I think  Mogg is a good choice, would of thought they would have called up Karudini ( however you spell it) for the second test.

Any news on AAC? He left holding his arm, is he injured as well?

So does this mean Cooper won't be at 10 then? And if that's the case will Beale move to 10 and Mogg at 15? Or stick with JOC at 10 with Beale at 15? Or JOC at 10 with Barnes and Leiliifano? So many combinations of amazing players!

Commentators said that Aus doctors though AAC had dislocated his shoulder.  Article says they're waiting for news on him.  If he did dislocate it then you'd think he must be out.  They have lots of options at 10/12/15 but not much at 13 unless they use another of their creative guys.  Digby Ioane could play 13 with JOC switching to wing.  Or Mogg on the wing with JOC and Beale 10/15 whichever way round.  Tapuai could come straight into the side at 13 if he's not needed at 12.  Was Rob Horne still in the squad?  He'd be another that could slot straight in at 13, and his direct style might work in there if Leili'ifano does come back at 12.

Cooper is a fool. JOC has also played 13 though as well. Horne will play 13 though

JOC will work better in the centre's, he's a quality tackler and distributor but needs that extra second he doesn't get at 10.
