Deans’ dilemma for Wallabies

AUSTRALIA’S five-point win over New Zealand in the Tri Nations decider has left Robbie Deans with a number of selection dilemmas to sort through before the World Cup.

With less than a fortnight until the Wallabies begin their campaign with a pool match against Italy, the make-up of Australia’s first-choice starting 15 remains unclear.

The three promoted to start in the 25-20 victory – Anthony Faingaa, Radike Samo and Dan Vickerman – all had outstanding games and were vital to lifting the prestigious trophy for the first time since 2001.
