Defending in League is obviously physically tough but their decision making is extremely limited in comparison to pretty much any Rugby position. League players are responsible for about 5 lateral metres of the field for an entire game whilst a Rugby player could be anywhere depending on what’s...

I’m on record as saying that Kellaway and Wright don’t work well together and that I’d drop the former at this point in time but devil’s advocate may point out that we aren’t leaking points out the back really and we haven’t been getting humiliated in kicking duels. That’s probably the base line...

RTS (Roger Tuivasa-Sheck) played a few tests but didn’t look great. Tahu played four tests which I have no recollection of.

All players that found league easier. Modern rugby is just so technical in comparison to league. Chess and checkers stuff.

Surely the fact that Gordon and Nawaqanitawase are approaching NRL starts so soon dispels this myth that league is such a higher standard. I’d buy that their cardiovascular fitness will improve but other than that it’s not like the skill demands are extreme.

I don’t believe there’s a great chasm between them. It’s great for Reds and Wallabies fans to have them both competing. Though I would keep Faessler starting at this point in time. Frankly I’m amazed that Nasser has been able to maintain our scrum and lineout at his size and age. Extremely...

This is why I say if he has been training well. If not then I’m happy with our 2 spot as it is.

I thought Faessler was solid last match but I think I’m moving him out for BPA if he’s training well because Nasser has looked seriously great so far. Really impressed with his scrummaging and our lineout hasn’t dipped either.

That last gasp tackle to force the knock on by Wilson could really change our entire season. I thought he was a very safe pair of hands (except for the dropped restart) at captain.

and this is Schmidt's legacy with Ireland. Missed tackle or breakdown and the player is pretty much dropped immediately.

On my behalf can you please go back to these posts and tell them to go get fucked.

You’re being negative against Max as well mate. It was hard for both players. We just won a classic and you’re being like this?

I’m worried that the rookies and younger players are going to find their heads spinning in Argentina but I’ll be happy if we are competitive. The second fixture is one I really believe we can win.

Really hope it’s DuPont but I’d also be happy with Pieter-Steph du Toit or Richie Mo’unga.

I wonder if that was planned or if he was just the only guy confident enough to say ‘yep, I’m him’. Could be a pivotal moment in his life and arguably already is if only one game. If he’s good though, this could be the biggest positive reversal in fortunes for a Wallaby in forever?

Koroibete was amazing for the Rebels this year.

Yep, we will need our best team and atm I think that means Noah. We aren’t in a position to give games away and unfortunately for Lynagh I’m not seeing many opportunities between now and the Lions, barring injury.

2018-2021 was just abysmal imo. What’s the deal with the weird collar? Dismal has a saved photo for phallic neckline design I believe.

Yeah I don’t think he and Wright work well together. They seem to take away from each other’s strongest points. Wright played well last test and has been solid for the last few so I would also select a fast option on the wing.
