I wouldnt mind Stanger getting to retain his spot. Even if its just for 20 minutes off the bench to see if he can offer something Tuiloma or Nando can't  as preparation for a disaster hypothetical where Boxy and Surman both get injured before the big dance. He didnt get a chance in the last window to show what he can do and now time is running out before the pointy end of WC lead up. Like wise im not going to be opposed if OPP also gets another look just to confirm where he sits in the pecking order.

I did like Coochie's Corban Piper call. Is he a bolter to get a look in during one of the windows between now and June or is he still well off?
