Note that Wing is out and Buderus and Gower are in. Priddis is supposedly on standby for Buderus.

Tahu in for Rooney as well. Grothe must have been a close go, I would have rather he got picked as I don't rate Tahu. But they like to stick with players who have been there done that so they don't run the risk of another Kimmorley choke.

I can't believe that Tahu is ahead of Grothe!

Tahu is in good form and he's tried and tested. They cant experiment with the decider
