Brumbies v Waratahs Rd 12 Sat 3rd May @ GIO Stadium 7.35pm AEST

Wright and JAS on the field at the same time is definitely a thing that needs to happen. They're both so damaging in attack and will have the the ability to unlock defences with the angles they run and passing in contact. I would think it will be Wright at 15 and JAS at 13. I'd love to see McKellar give Joseph a run in the centres before the tests though.

Yep, with Jorgo (if fit) and Potter, very capable attacking backline.

JAS made his case to be the Wobs 13 with that performance, wasnt really competing with Wright, played vastly different roles.

Yeah I didn't see it as a showdown as JAS has shown his ability and coaches desire to move him around to best suit the game.

I hope we see Len and JAS in the Centres and a guy like Wright lingering off the hip of both as they hit the line. Jorgo and Potter in support as well as Wright finally feels like the threatning back-line the Wallabies need to challenge the top sides and the Lions. It also brings Lynagh back into the equation as a steady hand with a good kicking game is what you need. Donaldson has been exciting but may be a good bench piece along with Kellaway to cover all spots.

Maybe. Manly are ass in 1st grade and Easts had 8.FLW (Fergus Lee-Warner) (Fergus Lee-Warner) 9. Grant 10. Bowen 12. Vaihu

Makes life pretty sweet for the Wingers.

Someone with some commonsense, they beat them 66 - 5. Easy game for a winger.

Makes you a bit excited about the possibility doesn't it.

Finally watched the game yesterday, even knowing the result (I'm a sadistic guy). First half not bad, not sure what Gordon was thinking with his no-arms tackle.

Second half wheels fell off. Whole team effort on that one. Not much width - Kellaway, Reilly didn't see much ball. Man sometimes I hate being a Tahs fan.

I was talking to my mate who's a Brums fan earlier and he was a little circumspect on their chances with their up and down season to date, but he was definitely proved wrong on that one. Brums just really shut down the Tahs, it was a comprehensive working over.

Had the exact same convo with a mate who lives down there but, they have won in Fiji, won at Eden Park then beat the Reds at Suncorp. When it's hard this side can step up which is a good for the finals. Blips happen, just look at the Chiefs v Tahs....
