A difficult exercise that kinda highlights how the balance is off in terms of too few locks and too many back rows. I'd prefer Bundee as 23, but considering the injury profile of the back three I think you gotta have flexibility with Hansen. (Anyone who has no idea what I'm talking about, Paramount+ will be showing the three match rugby series between Australia and the British & Irish Lions all-star team, which starts this weekend)
