Ah yes, Cheika v Eddie, "the gift that keeps on giving"!!

Thanks BH. How do you rate their chances going on the current form of all teams? Maybe the first four at least, to equal the ABs?!

If England wins this test, that will give them 14 straight. Is it too soon to ask in what order they play their next five tests, and how realistic it is to suggest that they might beat the All Blacks record of 18 consecutive wins?!

Interesting item on ABC radio news at 11 am (Qld), of an interview with Michael Cheika, accusing Eddie Jones of being disrespectful to the Wallabies and to his birth-country, (which gave him his coaching skills)! It's going to be an interesting 4-5 days!!

Thanks for posting those highlights, WO.

The men in gold by 10 to 15 points. Enjoy the match folks!

I am eagerly anticipating this one. It has the potential to be the Wallabies "Test match of the year". The multiple components (read 'contests') include the player match-ups, the goal kicking, the English fans v the Aussie fans, the English media v the Australian media, and last, but by no...

FWA, you can use less words on this forum by describing the above situation as "The Matt Dunning Option"!!

I turned to Mrs Doug, and suggested that he must be under strict instructions from his Mother to not be seen with his socks down!

Some here are hard to please. I saw two teams thrown together, in a match that was played on the 'other side of the world', yet able to be viewed in my lounge room, and it was competitive Rugby. I'm glad I was able to watch it. Tight five had to work hard all match, against some big units in the...

Plenty of "passion" out there, it will be an interesting second 40!!

Thanks KOB!

Great feed, and plenty of volume, coupled with male plus female commentary. Who got our 8 points? Ground quality looks like Suncorp Stadium!

Aw shucks Scrubber, you know how to batter a bloke's ego!:(

Thank you Scrubber, you have just confirmed that I must be "above average"!!

My mistake, Micheal. I thought it was a "National team", branded "Wallaby XV". I also thought that the team was to run out wearing the "Wallabies" jumpers. You may feel comfortable to rate this team as "The Waratahs", and the French Barbarians as a "B team", but some of us here see it as more...

With just a day and a bit to go, we still have no run-on team, no captain and no vice-captain, and some on this forum still question why Rugby is touted as the fourth-most-important football code in Australia!!

BH, don't forget the 15 "die hard (Queensland) Rugby fans" who will have to be up at 3:30am!! I heard this morning that Ireland have lost another three players to injury, (added to the previous two). I predict a win for the boys in gold, but I'm not so confident about our chances against "Fast...

Hasn't Justin Harrison been doing commentary on one of the feeds, and isn't Justin Harrison one of the coaches of the Wallaby XV? Assuming that it's the same Justin Harrison, why can't he be "miked up" to provide an English commentary, (audio only)?!

Ch 7 and Ch 9 both had items (with film) in their sports reports at the end of the news this morning, and ABC "Offsiders" mentioned it briefly (no film), at the end of their regular half-hour segment.
