She was a reserve in the first test against England, and hasn't been seen since. In fact, Moore has kept the same 4 props since then.
By my quick count, 2 of the squad haven't played at all.

A slight improvement from previous weeks but generally the same weaknesses too (poor kicking, discipline, defending the maul). Simon provided some much-needed physical presence.
I still can't believe that a player can have played 30+ tests as a hooker but still can't throw for shit.

Anton Oliver?
seriously, though, it's in the mens game to a certain extent. Halfbacks with 10s of caps who can't pass (Justin, TJP)
