It looks like Cheika is going to drop Toomua and Tatafu for the November tests, even though both will be available. He also looks set to back Beale at 12, outside Foley. I consider this quite a bold move. I don't understand why, but Cheika just can't separate himself from Beale. Well see how it pays off in the NH. I think Toomua is largely the fall guy for Beale's woes, he would have a better skillset for the conditions and the kind of game they'll face throughout the tour.

Beale is a gift to the opposition.

Beale is better off the bench, sometimes that is unpredictable. He is not reliable enough to start- not as a centre- and especially  as a starting flyhalf.

If I remember correctly, he played fullback too. If it weren't for Folau and Haylett-Petty, he might be an option. For me, James O'C onnor was the more talented of the three omigos.
