So I think every game's going to be difficult.

But the other thing that I think is really interesting is that they're different teams.

France and Italy and Ireland are completely different teams.

And you do take that into consideration when you're selecting all black sides.

Who are you playing?

What sort of game do they play?

So I think we're in for a very intriguing 12 months to see the way it unfolds with the new coaching line-up

at home here against three worthy opponents, the French, the Irish and the Italians.

And I'm counting the Italians as worthy because they've got a bit of character, that team now.

And then, of course, they're going to South Africa to play an impossible series.

Four test matches and equivalent to test matches midweek.

I see we're taking a huge number of players.

44, yep, yep, yep.

Can't even remember how many it is.

Is it?

44, is it?

Yeah, so you see he's got plenty of room, isn't he?

So the midweek, there'll be midweek players that may not play a test.

They may play all midweek.

He may develop two teams here, two squads.
