Anthony Minichello would replace Timana Tahu and Brent Tate will not play making way for Cooper who is playing on a 'promise' from Bennett.
The backline will apparently be:
1 - Darren Lockyer (c)
2 - Anthony Minichello
3 - Matt Cooper
4 - Mark Gasnier
5 - Matt King
6 - Trent Barrett
7 - Andrew Johns
Well, I will leave it at that given this is possibly only another rumour that comes about around selection time so people can claim 'I told you so' once it is confirmed.
We'll see, I cannot see Bennett moving his captain though the backline in saying that does look as strong if not stronger.
