Disagree.....Giteau is not the answer at 12.....too small.....Toomua is better.
I don't rate Horne

 It's a good team, not sure about Foley at 10, would liked to have seen Toomua in the role but then again Cheika would have given it a lot of thought.

A great starting team and even better bench (FOR THIS MATCH).  OZ should do fantastically well.

 Toomua and Kuridrani together are quite possibly the best centre pairing there has ever been. Toomua always contributes so much to the Wallabies and has thus far totally outclassed Giteau every time he has come on the field. Cheika is a damn fool. It will cost him.

 "Toomua and Kuridrani together are quite possibly the best centre pairing there has ever been."

easy, easy, man,......... "the best centre pairing there has ever been"?  sounds quite excessive, how many tests have they played together? 2 or 3?

Toomua is far from been one of the bests 12, Nonu, SBW, Fofana, Roberts, even the aussie Kerevi are IMO beter 12s,....
Toomua is one of the best defensive 12, though he has to learn how to kick and this is why he cannot play at 10 (watch the disastrous last match he had against the AB) but I agree with you that Cheika is making a mistake having the pair Foley-Gitteau as incumbent. Given Foley has been out of form for the whole season and Cooper is a liability in the important matches, I would play:

10. M. Gitteau

12. M. Toomua

13. T. Kuridrani
