Good to see Wells back in the XXIII and Mapapalangi keeping his place. Tait at 12 should be interesting; Toomua's only supposed to be out for a couple of weeks, so should hopefully be back after the AWC.

Real solid look about Falcons nowadays. Flood will give them some direction at 10, they've got 2 good try scoring wingers and a willing pack full of grafters. Interesting to see if they can maintain this seasons very good form.
