    Australian Rugby / RA

    A lot of knee jerk posts following this. Rebels out, I would think that RA might have followed up a bit more than usual. Vic club world is practically the only place to do that. I wouldn't call it a "requirement" but it would have definitely been more than just "a nice to have".

    Wallabies 2024

    I'd suggest we have the players for a better ranking than #9. It starts with coaching consistency, an improvement in S&C, a consistent game plan and another 10 or so games to lock in the game plan, coaching locking in much more closely to the best 23, best 35, consistency in those selections...

    Wallabies v Springboks, Sat 17th August 2024 Perth

    Strange comment in a game necessarily dominated by forwards. Two defending 10s come to mind - To'omua at the Brumbies/Wallabies and Stewart at the Reds prior to shifting west. Plenty of tries scored in teams with both of these guys in that role. If you hadn't noticed, a lot of what is happening...

    Wallabies 2024

    Fabulous and developing. For the Reds. For internationals I suspect that Flook may need to bide time and that plenty will pine for a bigger body than Paisami.

    Wallabies v Springboks, Sat 17th August 2024 Perth

    There has been considerable dicussion around "radical" or out of position selections to face the Bokke. Some saying it's necessary others that it is stupid. I would think that for a settled, mature team, some rearrangement, possibly even with out of position selections - is justifiable against a...

    Wallabies v Springboks, Sat 17th August 2024 Perth

    How did that work out for Rennie? Seemed fine until... Italy. AND in this cycle we also have BIL. WC is definitely an exposition of great importance, but for a team struggling to hold off 2nd tier status we have plenty that matters in order to ensure that the next RWC matters at all.

    The scrum was attacked and lost on the THP side pretty consistently.

    Wallabies 2024

    Pretty close. Definitely I thought Zane performed much better in the scrum than AAA. Though the change over to the Bomb Squad was initially faced by AAA. 54' Substitute on - Vincent Koch , South Africa 54' Substitute on - Gerhard Steenekamp , South Africa 59' Substitute on -...

    It was a game that finding players for the 3-2-1 was going to be a struggle, Slim. "Sigh...." was right.

    I'd humbly suggest that the Wallabies themselves had just a tad to do with the quiet crowd.

    Wallabies 2024

    If we are to continue with a plan working primarily off 9, I'd be tempted to consider Stewart at 10, and a second backline starting with one of the usual fly halves. It would shore up defence and provide a ruck fetcher while providing no less ball wide than we have now. Kick passes and kicks in...

    For goodness sake, not sure what irritates more, Marce rubbing everyone's nose in it or 5 posters reacting to each Marce provocation. Here's a tip: 1. click on his avatar 2. find the "ignore" button 3. use it If you want it considered by mods, report it. None of the above needs a running...

    Wallabies v Springboks, Sat 10th August 2.30pm AEST @ Suncorp,

    Hey Joe. I realise the above two observations were not directly linked in your post, but thought I might mention that the Wallaby halves when we were two up were Tate and Lynagh.
