TSR, I never accused you of being a Cheika apologist. Before getting sanctimonious with me, check out the mental health thread and you will know exactly where I come from on matters of mental health. He isn't the first Wallaby coach to have a blow torch applied to him. Link before him had...

I don't support hate mail or even playing the man. His performance in the role is very questionable and on that level people should attack away. At the end of the day, the punters are pissed off with a whole union that has no bloody concept or regard for accountability. A few idiots go to...

A pot plant could do a better job than Cheika. If it reassures his usual appologists, I'm sure we can spray paint the pot plant sky blue.

What gets me is how far away from the ethos of rugby the ARU has become. Strip rugby down to its nuts and bolts and what the game is about and what the rugby community is about. Whether you go to watch your kids juniors game each week Coach that junior side or assist the coach (wash...

Kerevi needs to work on his defense and should be cut loose from the squad to do so. I hope he sorts it out because when on song in attack, we have no weapon like him. Meakes and Kuindrani should be tried in the centres. Beale is the same as Kerevi in being a liability. Might be time to...

Absolutely love that Hanagan fella. I can really see why they thought he would be better than RHP.

Sombody will come up with an idea of a player to try. Then another person will come up with that he's not test quality shit.

All good in Wallaby land. it was a brave performance and the boys fought back hard. In All Blacks land they are absolutely seething at that 2nd half. They will pound us into a pulp next week. ......... Oh and another thought. Bring back that Quade fella.

Oh dear, what a mess. Even Malcom Turnbull is a better leader than Hooper. Hanagan vs Squire, out of compassion, somebody throw in the towel. X factor Beale. Hair by Beale couldn't tackle to save himself. Keep loving the cream puff though. Eales at half time. I just see a stinking...

Who knows what the clowns at SANZAAR will cook up. Would not be bothered if he got stuff all. Letting his team down in a final is more punishment than they could possibly hand out to him.

Shame about the card but the ref ruled by the book and you can'y hold that against them. Lions were bloody brave but they made some errors they probably would of got away with against another side. Congratulations Saders on a deserved win. been the form team this year. Congratulations...

That's the point though fatprop. In Pocock's case I wonder if it was his lived experience that gave him the drive to work hard. It probably also explains his strong social conscience away from rugby.

Good on Cowan. Pretty sad that is the exception and not the normal professional standard. Also sad he has found this attitude at the ripe age of 31. There is a big gap in assisting talented players from adolescence to full adulthood. We are dealing with human beings and it is an important...

Super Rugby is in a bad way but it is also the way forward for professional rugby in Australia. In a saturated market, it is our point of difference. Week in week out international rugby. The structure has become to complicated with this conference stuff. Simplify it back to each team...

Speaking of the officials, the touchy Rasta with the big long last name is a bloody good official. Been watching him all season. He is incredibly fit and has a very good eye on the play as well as player management. He refs a good contest this bloke. I also like the way he backed himself in...

There was lots of talk about the Lions not playing a Kiwi side this year but in reality the Lions play like a Kiwi side. I have a soft spot for them so I hope they get up next week.

Hooper will be the next Wallaby captain but its a pretty crappy decision in my view. Never seen much to suggest he is a good captain to date. Not commanding enough. Would like to see Coleman or Carter personally. Carter has shown to be a good captain though the issue for him is he is in...

Rangi looks good from what I have seen of him. Hope we see more of him. Will see regarding Mafi. He has certainly made the most of his opportunity and credit to him for that. Happy Moore has bowed out this way. I was looking like he was going the George Greagan route and hanging around...

We are doing okay at hooker in this country. Good options amongst the younger ones.

Beale doesn't run straight. he crabs into the space of his outside man. Let's not forget those chip kicks either.
