The League trio showed that they can play some of the best rugby in the team and they did provide 3 tries (the lead up to Burke's try was all Rogers from memory) but they also made at least 3 huge mistakes that cost at least 4 tries.

Also is it just me or is it whenever Wendall is at first receiver at the lineout he always scores a solo try. I think that it was about the 4th or 5th time he did it on Saturday night.

As much as Wendall and Rogers are great players, they are both a little too undisciplined at the moment and another season of Super 12 would probably be a huge help, but unfortunately they don't have another season. The World Cup is this year and if the Wallabies are going to have any chance of winning it the League Trio have to be in it.

I don't think Burke is out of it just yet, you would want him in your side just for goalkicking ability, especially against the Northern Hemisphere teams where their want is to give away penalty after penalty in kicking range.
