This is an absolute must win for the Wallabies. They're the only team without a win so far.

With less points than Beaudy on the table

@nepia I think there would be a massive difference in body shape, application, and work rate.
He looked a bit Skelton like in the league video I saw of him ... plus, who would be able to lift him in the lineouts?
Apparently Skelton has slimmed down over in Europe?

Will Skelton's dramatic weight loss was a major talking point today
Will Skelton’s size has been both a blessing and curse for the giant Australian secondrow. It was Skelton’s size that first caught the Australian media’s eye back in 2010. The then
He has really lost some weight in Saracens.

I wish RA had the foresight to sign Jordan Mailata 2 years ago. Could be a starting Wallaby 8 or lock.
NRL didn't like him as he plays a few minutes at a time. High effect, but can't go 80.
NFL loves him as he plays a few minutes at a time. High effect, and can go the distance with breaks, drinks and massages.
So, yeah - probably not a rugby player, but certainly a great American Football dude. Keen to see him develop and hopefully have a good career

@sapetyvi One wonders why the coach here couldn't achieve that from him.

@nzzp with the way "finishers" are being used these days, you could get his fitness to a point where he's a 40 minute player and worth every second.
Actually, he could be the Aussie Tongan-Frizell with 10-20 minute cameos.
