Newington vs Kings, two of the oldest rugby schools in the country.

So why would Eddie give a shit about them? Goes both ways mate.

The questions that I'm referring to were even before Eddie announced the squad. The questions that you're referring to are about Quade's absence etc, which are pretty easily answerable whether it's from Eddie or the people on this forum...

He's in yr 12 but young for his year

From what I've seen, the majority of the questions that have been asked are outright laughable and I do not blame Eddie at all for calling them out on it.

Fair enough, move on.

Did you watch any of the games? He was one of the best players from the u20s southern hemisphere. He may not be at this level currently but i'll back that he's going to play against the Lions for the Wallabies.

He is training mate. Even with his 10 super games, he was still one of the better Australian super rugby players. Just so you know I was never against Wright and Hodge, in fact, I have been a supporter of Wright on this forum for ages (even during his painful to-watch fuck ups), and I still...

You're probably correct and that's what I would want as well.

If he can hold his own in super rugby against teams like the Hurricanes, and the Chiefs, he should be able to do it against Georgia, Fiji, and Portugal. IMO NOT Wales and Fiji, MAYBE Georgia, and LIKELY Portugal. Will be interesting if Eddie throws him at full-back or wing. I suspect Eddie...

To be fair to Donaldson, he's got a decent boot on him, nothing extraordinary but still. Carter's kicking against NZ in the latest test was class, kicked 3/3 (two on the far left edge if i recall), and even got a 50-22 with Will Jordan covering the back. I remember he missed touch twice (in both...

This is why I think Eddie has opted for Petia to move into the 13 jersey in replacement of ikitau. He's got a lot more flare and will spark opportunities like that.

Sure but you can also add in the fact that Wright has had MULTIPLE chances to soldify his spot on the wing or at full-back and hasn't done that.

Because he's earned it over other players, i.e. Wright and Hodge. Takeaway his age and compare all 3 players individually based on their super rugby performances and Jorgensen was clearly above Hodge and marginally better than Wright.

Which players?

Are you having a sook because you asked a question and got an adequate response?

Jorgensen, Gleeson, Gordon, Foketi, Marky Mark (Nawaqanitawase), Walton, Pietch, holloway.

Surely you develop Pasitoa and move Donaldson to the 22 or put him at 15.

The biggest issue I have with all of this is why Eddie just didn't give Donaldson game time against NZ and instead gave it to Cooper. It's so fkn random. Did a knock-on from a shit pass really cause Quade to be cut? If not why the fuck would u give him game time???

I think the backup 10 is likely to be Kellaway. Played there at school and seems like someone who could cover that position well. Read an article few months ago which said that Jorgensen could make the switch to 10 later on - maybe he plays there but tbh that sounds like a horrible idea for...
