Digby Ioane FTW - I think it was Ripper than mentioned that O'Connor would perhaps have a free license on the wing in much the way as Ioane, but I don't think thats been particularly successful and would prefer to see O'Connor in his more usual position at fullback (in saying that Beale's performance was solid enough and justified his selection at 15). Faingaa (at 12) was caught out in the line a few times though was generally sound - also seemed to suit the way Australia wanted to play the game with his ball running skills.
