Harris at fullback? With Hernandez bombing the shit out of him? No thanks (then again who else, Morahan?) Timani and Samo in the backrow, jeezuz now Hooper has to do the equivelent workload of 3 backrowers.

He looked out of his depth against the Bokke. I haven't seen anything that makes him a long-term solution

When you think about it, our line-out options are looking pretty shithouse right now. Horwill isn't the most used jumper, he is still pretty decent though, but then you have Timani and Douglas who are not prominent jumpers. I don't recall Neville being anything special in the air either. Simmons...

It's a shame we have so many injuries, it would of been nice to experiment with a few players. Jake Shatz is one that comes to mind, would of liked to see him get a few runs. Dan Palmer is another who I think could of solidified a starting spot if fit. That aside, I want to see Luke Morahan...

Easts had their awards night the other day, from memory the awards went something like this Best Player: Jarrad Buttler Best Forward: Blake Enever Best Back: Johnny Wilder Players Player: Jarrad Buttler And I think Dom Fuller got an award, but I can't remember what it was for.

Didn't Shepherdson leave and Jeremy Tilse was expected to sign? Maybe that is it. EPS might look something like 1- Kevin Davis (or another local prop, JP Smith?) 2- Blake Enever 3- Curtis Browning/Jarrad Buttler (I know Buttler is signed but not sure if it is EPS or Full) 4- Some halfback from...

This has the potential to be a fucking ripper. If both teams played like they did last week I'll definatly stay up and watch it instead of the Wallabies.

Sean Cox and Jack Kimmance aswell.

What's the point of him plodding around for 30minutes, when you have Slipper, a far better player at the moment, who can go for 80? It doesn't make sense to me at all, but then again, the Deans factor.

Because his game style is basically running around like a headless chicken on acid. That's not to say he's a bad player, but I don't think structure is what he is best at.

If McCabe is forced to fullback or wing, I'd like to see Harris at 12. He is very underrated, and has been killing it at club level. Taps would be ideal but I suspect he will be overlooked again. 9- Phipps 10- Beale 11- Cummins 12- Harris 13- Fainga'a 14- Shipperely 15- McCabe 20- Sheehan 21-...

Was thinking last night that a Pocock/Hooper tandem could be an option to look at. Obviously that means Palu can't play 8. If Higgers can find his form again he is the ideal jumping backrower. Time for a Pocock vs Hooper thread? Hooper has grown an extra limb since making his debut, because...

If South Africa could play like that every week they would be very close to the All Blacks. The Wallabies were shithouse, but aren't we always? I was impressed by the Boks. We are a shambles, Hooper and maybe Beale are the only players who can hold their head up after that one.

3- Hooper 2- Beale 1- Ashley-Cooper

Great post CA, nothing better then seeing the Reds "stars" coming back to club land, I think it is fairly evident that University maintains a strong relationship with these guys, even when they only play a few games a season. Can't comment on Easts here, although Quirkie and Toua are at every...

I haven't really paid much attention to this thread, or the whole QC (Quade Cooper) twitter matter, but I read what he said last night, and fuckin hell Quade you're digging a hole. I can understand that he has issues with the environment, and I'm sure he isn't the only one, and yes the Wallabies tactics are...

I think with Brothers they have other influential players like Damon Murphy and Nathan Gendle in the backs who can step up. With Easts, apart from maybe Toby White, there isn't anyone who can take the game and control it like Brando can. Brothers wouldn't have performed so poorly in the finals...

I'm so happy to see Steyn gone. I'd rather play a Bok side who play to their full potential.

NG would be a handy EPS pick up considering we may need some extra halfback cover. You lost me at BG though haha

It should be RT, it should of been RT for years now. What ever happened to the halfback that fits TD's description? NG?
