    Aussie really has some fantastic youngsters coming through. James O Connor is the obvious one to get a lot of attention in 09- but Rob Horne is another youngster with blistering pace, and serious ball. A real one to watch this year.

    Chris Thomson is the son of Wallabies manager Phil. The Tahs will be light on in the pack without Vickerman, Kanaar, Dunning, Kepu, Elsom and Lyons. Peter Playford is an ex Brumby was supposed to be going overseas. Coridas dread locked ginger who played in the sevens sides possible replacement for Waugh.
