I agree but it was a rehearsed move that needs to be removed from the playbook

What sort of stupid brain dead waste of possession was that 5m scrum play?

I agree, but the problem is we don’t have one of those who is a 10. There is little downside in giving Donaldson a go though.

Noah needs to go off. That’s all I have to say.

About as good as we can put out with the fit personnel, acid test.

It could, but it could also because Joe wants his captain to be an 80 minute player, halfbacks are generally subbed off with 20-30 to go. I know props are as well but I think AAA and Slips being made captains was because they already had notched that up so he didn't want to anoint a new one...

Say for example, climbing off the canvas to come from behind and just get over the 64th ranked team in the world and then have the media carry on like they just landed a World Cup semi final berth.....oh wait....

I do know they performed better than all the alternative 10/12 combinations that are in consideration for this weekend.

I'd be interested to hear from a 'clubbie' who has also played super rugby if there is one here as to the step up required to go to the next level. I have heard it's all about the speed of the game, especially when going up to test level, and not so much the physicality. At the end of the day...

He's on what they call the 'extended bench', which means he's a reserve reserve, if that makes sense. Not a bad shout 2 games in though.

Stewart reminds me a lot of Kyle Godwin, but in a good way. On his day he was fantastic, and he put in a belter in his only (I think?) test v France on an EOYT. Hopefully Hamish puts in a belter too.

Just described a s a'really bad stinger'.

Not forgotten but I don’t think he counts as he didn’t really make a conscious choice to defect to another sport, it was more out of necessity. If he didn’t post weird shit on instagram he would probably still be fullback for the Wallabies.

There actually hasn't been too much wrong with our scrum for several years, except when we are poleaxed with injuries. Maul defence, well that's a separate issue.

It's only an academy contract. The news is that Freddy's son is potentially choosing rugby over the NRL, not that it's a superstar multi-million dollar signing. He was in NSW Schoolboys, I don't think it's outrageous to put him in the academy, regardless of surname, they should sign as many of...

I wondered the same but he and thegrounskeeper joined at the same time and seem to use this platform to have conversations with each other.

I could be wrong but I don't think anything has actually been confirmed. He asked for the early release (something to do with his American wife I believe), but it was only so he could have their blessings to explore the market. He's still a Tah at this stage.

I agree in principle with most of this but who determined that Len Ikitau is world class? Very good player and certainly one of the few auto picks in our squad, but doesn't world class imply that if you were picking a world xv he would be in it, at 13? Or put another way, he'd make the best...
