Waratahs 2025

[The Ghost of Raelene]

David Wilson just saw the light and wanted to settle here. Wouldn’t be half the player if he didn’t go through it down here…

We all know Tupou is a lucky get by RA but it’s on brand for QLD footy codes I guess

Good to finally see someone from inside the organization calling it like it is:

Queensland coach, Queensland prop, Queensland halfback things are looking up down south.

Swings and roundabouts. What about Link McKenzie, Chris Carberry, Peter Horton, Bunter Shaw, Chris Latham, Michael Foley, Morgan Turinui, Lachie Turner, Tony Daly, Matt Ryan, Fletcher Dyson, Jim McInerney moving north to name a few.

 

[Adam84]

they're Queenslanders?

 

[Lindommer]

In yer dreams. Quite a few saw the light and returned to God's country.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

For all the dejected NSW supporters.

I'm sure the Brumbies enjoyed watching their future stars run around.....

Future is/can be bright.

Just to bring you back down: Sua'ali'i is long odds to return this week, yet to resume normal running and Gordon is out for at least 3 weeks+.

 

[fatprop]

I actually though Wilson was very good at 9, very crisp pass from the ground

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

The Tahs can't bring me down. Iv'e had a weird feeling this year that the wins don't take me that high and the lows like Saturday don't bury me either. I float between 4-6 on a 1-10 scale atm.

 

[John S]

Yeah, I liked what Wilson was bringing to the game. Looked good in the first 20 minutes when the forwards gave him good go forward ball

 

[Wilson]

I thought Reilly was also excellent for the tahs in that first quarter and a big part of the good start they put on. There wasn't much room for a winger to get involved beyond that, but I expect he'll hold that starting spot even if Lancaster is available this week.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Might have heard his name for a while but that was Wilson's first start. Pretty good effort in a big game

His defence was great. Looking for involvements and reminds me a lot of Pietsch in regard to being able to squeeze effort out to make up for any natural deficiencies they may have when comparing to others who are more gifted. Might be the start of some guys developing from depth in the squad. Gotta work harder to get a crack and when you get it, go out and show it.

 

[A mutterer]

His pass was great,his kicking from hand was poor

 

[Strewthcobber]

This is pretty much the stated reason why he didn't get much game time last year wasn't it?

 

[Major Tom]

I didn’t see any poor kicks from him. Definitely no worse than Gordon’s kicking.

 

[Crashy]

This Sualii injury is a joke. we spend megabucks and the bloke barely plays 3/4 of a game. What arent they telling us??

 

[Wilson]

not sure the mega bucks were spent for him to play for the tahs (or even by the tahs).

 

[Lindommer]

Scrummies kicking? I don't think I can recall ANY Oz halfback doing a decent kick this year. Fer Chrissake, stop it!

 

[Derpus]

I actually though Wilson was very good at 9, very crisp pass from the ground

He was faster than Gordon, that is true, but I thought he was a good deal less composed. Hopefully something he improves on as he gets more experienced.

I think we really miss Gordon as a team particularly without a 10 who is able to manage a game.

I'm confused, why is it a joke? Players get injured
