Apparently Burns has been picked over Ballin incase Matais neck doesn't hold up, in which case Burns to 6 and Lyon back to centre

Hick's dad assures me that Chris will be right for next week. leg muscle bruise from the try that wasn't last week. What's up with Menzies and will Willo be back next week? We surely need both with their defense.

Menzies said on TV it was just a very minor niggle that they felt wasn't worth risking

Williamson went down in the warmup, knee i think it was, not sure of the extent
