Does anyone know why Magnus Bradbury wasn’t selected ?

No one fell over

No Israel Folau.

Injured? God wont let him play? He found out there's a gay player in the RWC? He's the additional player not named yet?

Also see we need to find a new wing now too.

Bovidae

Did Adam Coleman not play in any of the pre-RWC games? He'll provide plenty of height at lock.

So, I'm playing for Selknam when I emigrate to Chile. All the other clubs must cop horrible hidings.

@booboo Selknam is the only pro-club in Chile, I think.

Selknam plays in Super Rugby Americas.

Maybe his injury rules him out?
