A few changes this week - blowing the transfers I had built up. Ti'i Paulo comes in after a continuation of his impressive run of form. My McCaw experiment was short-lived, and I sold him after one week - even though he did okay last week. I just don't see him posting big numbers, and I need to start taking some risks at this stage of the season. I brought in wildman Lauaki instead... he's a gamble but when he's on song, he's a points machine.

Matt Giteau is back... and like McCaw, I've dropped Carter for Cooper. I think he's going to destroy the Lions, and Giteau won't be too shabby against the Cheetahs.

With the Lions in mind, I've dropped Masaga for Ioane - he is almost guaranteed several tries against the leakiest defense in the competition.
