Yeah, the loose head was obviously up for discussion, I suppose, to the degree of Billy Bowen might squeeze onto the bench.

Tom O'Toole starts, he started against Scotland that day, went very, very well for him.

It was probably his best international performance in a real... If he can maintain that level, it'll be...

He'll be a real asset considering Porter has missed some time.

Yeah, disappointed Bowen isn't on the bench ahead of Lachman.

We know what Lachman gives.

I thought it was a low-risk selection to have Bowen on the bench for this game because Australia aren't a formidable scrummaging pack.

I just think it would have actually been a good way of getting his eye in

And then maybe giving him a bigger role against Japan with an eye to Eton Park because he's had a great season.

I don't agree with the notion that he's like too callow because Lachman is a level.

Bowen, I think, has already shown he can get past that level and pretty quickly.

So I wish he... I wish Andy Farrell had been a little more... He was bold with Paddy McCarthy.

A lot less experience.

I'm not jumping up and down about it.

He actually looked very...

When he had the injury, I think he missed a quarterfinal of Europe, did he?

And then he played against Toulon in the semifinal and was really powerful.

It was probably his best ball-carrying performance we'd seen in quite a while.

Obviously then more injuries scuppered the end of his season, but that little mini-break looked like it benefited him, so maybe just a longer break.

I remember I did the numbers from, like, the 2023 World Cup until, like, his recent injury.
