Bobby Bridge has counted the votes and comes up with:

Though I did myself, I was surprised to see the number of votes cast for Matteo Minozzi. I still think Dai will start Keiran rather than JTA.

Interesting. The front row is contentious but in reality it's a six man selection there rather than three. The big calls for Dai will be Willis v Shields and De Jongh v Fekitoa and to a lesser extent Carr v Willis v Vailanu. Rotation should be possible looking at the depth we have which should give us an edge. Just need some luck with injuries.

Back Row depth is screaming for rotation. Might depend on the opposition and strategy. For example if we need more of a ball carrier use Vailanu. If we need possession and hence a jackal use Willis.
