    Wallabies v Springboks - Adelaide Oval, Sat 27th August, 2022

    From what I read about a previous pre-season, Skelton wouldn't dare come back over weight again. O'Gara has a take crap stance to this and worked Skelton extremely hard when he came back over weight.

    Rebels 2023

    It's one thing I think the Rebels have done well the last few years, is the promotion of rugby in public schools. At the same time they are still missing out on the catholic schools that fall in the middle. There is a lot of good schools in that middle category that produce good athletes that...

    Yeah, Box Hill was a long enough trip, EH is a good hour drive from me. Still tempting as House made the final and have not got down to watch them except when they played at the junior club.

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    You missed one for India, the Indian hockey league is the biggest hockey comp in the world. Draws all the best players from around the world in the same fashion the IPL works. One of the teams even plays in a 30k stadium.

    Rugby Scrums

    It is pretty harsh when the scrum getting smashed is made up of 8 players, only the props are going to get the card.

    Rugby Scrums

    The issues with Scrums is the players in the front row and now just too strong. You can't expect a team to be able to hook the ball when the opposition applies force, 3 v 2 push. The Scrum half can't try and feed straight as they would never win the ball back. I don't know how you find a...

    Wallabies 2023

    Remove Cheika's first year, and the Wallabies have been below 40% since then. He has actually made a slight improvement from where he took over. Problem is in that 8 years roughly, France and improved, Ireland have improved, England improved, Argentina improved, South Africa improved.

    Ireland have it worse, GAA control the parish. Some clubs still don't allow kids to play both football and rugby, and a lot more kids play football then Rugby. It's the same as here where it's a private schools thing.

    Wallabies 2023

    Considering his said he wants to win the world cup with 2 different nations, sign him up on a 5 year deal and go you have 2 attempts before you get to move onto your second nation.

    Wallabies 2023

    Well you would expect the Wallabies are bringing 30-35 blokes, there would be 10 that can be involved in both at least. A year out from a RWC where you need to perform to start creating interest ahead of the 2027 RWC being at home. Ireland played 5 games in 3 weeks in NZ, Wallabies with a...

    Well seems we will find out, AAA has flown home for family reasons.

    Wallabies 2023

    While I agree his not as good as the two ahead of him, it's a year out from the RWC and you need to give him a shot before then to see if he can make the step up in level. His set piece was solid enough in Super Rugby that some game time is not the worst decision before next year.

    Wallabies 2023

    Wasn't Colby added to the squad last year as well? I think Wilkin was hard done by not to be included in Aussie A squad, had a really solid season. Jordy has played well in the Premiership, has been talked about as a darkie for the Poms this season to.

    What's Hodges record starting at 10? I know it's mainly been easier games but I can't think of a lose when he started 10.

    Rebels 2023

    The Reds confirmed Stewart's release with a sly shot at the Rebels as they deal with salary cap pressure "The Western Force made the request through the appropriate channels. They had a need with some injuries and departing inside backs," Reds GM of Rugby Sam Cordingley added. “We have good...

    We have an attacking coach? Not sure I'm to worried about the loss if the last 2 seasons is anything to go by.

    Rebels 2023

    3 seasons, 7 games, 41 min. His only 24 now, so was quite young when here. Would have played under Coleman in LA so not that surprising that his ended up at the Tahs.
