haha. ow shit really? I haven't been following the news

The current Giteau Law is nonsensical. For me there is two option for RA: (a) reduce the Giteau Law to about 30 caps; or (b) make a rule that says that only 3 or 4 overseas players can be named in a Wallabies 23. I probably prefer the latter cause it still ensures that the bulk of your...

Tahs will be infinitely more at home at Leichardt than Suncorp

I thought so no?

Having no crowd in NZ probably doesn't either. The games feel like they lack a bit of intensity without a rabid crowd

If this was being played at Suncorp, I'd back a comfortable Reds win, but with home ground advantage I think the Tahs could spring an upset here. Can't imagine they'll be much in it either way. the flyhalf match up intrigues me . will be a lot of pressure on both 10s.

My big take away from watching the game was man its great to have some rugby to watch again. As the commentors mentioned the win is probably more important for the tahs given their 2021 campaign. Other than that its tough to take much from these trial games as a viewer. They give the coaches a...

Any idea what happened to the stream of the game?

Only got to watch about 10 mins of the game but it was enough to get me fired up for the season. Unfortunately i have one more weekend of twiddling my fingers until round 1

Any idea what time kick off will be / whether theyll be streaming the game?

If Rugby Australia are smart they'll schedule Australia's toughest pool game and their semi final match at Suncorp. It's clearly the stadium where the wallabies play their best footy historically. Plus it clearly won't get the nod for the Grand Final (despite being our best rugby stadium).

I wasnt referring to any specific country. I was just referring to the inevitable spread of covid that we will be living with once international travel is back and mandatory quarantines are gone. The south african variant, and any other variants will eventually find their way to aus

Other countries have said this but ended up back in lockdown. If we get to a point where our hospitals can't cope with the numbers then the state governments will be forced to resort to lockdowns. We've seen this overseas. Seems unlikely but certainly possible particularly if some gnarly new...

well fuck yeh.

I'm unfamiliar with the process, but wasn't South Africa announced as the preferred candidate for 2023 and then lost out on the votes anyway? What's the chances we still lose out?

Fuck this tour has been a massive stich up. The ref did every thing possible to get the welsh home. Thought we were clearly the better side.

Just watched the game. Wallabies attack was just horrendous. Unfortunately we really seem to now be a team that just doesnt know how to plqy well on the road. The only positive is that i did see enough to believe the wallabies should win the england series at home next year. Also the selection...

Yeh, although I re-read the Fairfax article and it wasn't categorical. the headline was (states both "set to miss" the game), but then the article itself just states its a real possibility, so who knows. I assume the wallabies are still hopeful that AA will pass the protocols but are planning...

Foxsports reporting that AA will likely play. I hope they're right.

Qwerty where did you hear Tupou has been ruled out? I'm expecting he will be but I can't see anything reported just yet
