    Scrum Talk

    I think the problem has faded because we are currently playing S15 rather than internationals. I can see the issue of scrum resets raising its head again once the IRB refs come and take charge. S15 has either come up with a working solution - refs and players alike, or the various forward...

    Waratahs 2012

    Does anyone know when next year's coach will be decided upon ? Consensus seems to be that Foley will get the job ? What about the assistants, will Foley geta say in who fills these roles ( if he gets the job )?

    Semifinal 1: Reds V Blues

    Is there any room left on this bandwagon? OK, It's monday morning, Tah's are goooone. I think its time to get on the bandwagon. Would it help if I told you I was born is Brisbane and was once able to proudly hold up the Risdon Cup before skulling some XXXX from it, after an epic victory at...

    Semi Final 1: Blues vs Waratahs

    Ash - Good call. KB (Kurtley Beale) at fullback is world class, at 5/8 he's not first choice at S15 level.

    Phil Waugh retires

    Congrats on a wonderful career. My favourite memories where of Waugh and Smith battling for selection in the Wallabies. On the occasions when they were both selected, I found the wallaby games most intriguing. A highlights video should definitely include a big hit he put on John Roe who had...

    Scrum Penalty Analysis by Gary Gold

    The coaches would know some of this I would think. As a coach I would be interested in any ideas that would protect the loosehead when he is scrumming in his own half. e.g. how do you keep the ref from going around to the side away from the scrum feed at the very least. When scrumming within...

    Semi Final 1: Blues vs Waratahs

    Tahs have performed well over the last month, IMO they have had more form than the blues. We all know that the blues are a hot and cold team. I think the gameplan from Hickey will be very tight even though we are missing some front rowers. Gain ascendency at the tackle contest and hopefully...

    Semi Final Qualifier 2: Crusaders v Sharks: Nelson

    I'm going to tip home teams first in these finals. Status quo remains intact.

    Waratahs v. Brumbies 2011R18

    qwerty51 I dunno, I like Mumm at 6. Don't be fooled that he isn't mobile enough to play it because he's a lock. I agree. I think Mumm is a better 6 than lock. He is very mobile. He needs to develop better impact and get dominant tackles like Kiano or Elsom or Burger or Higgers.

    Waratahs v. Brumbies 2011R18

    Ok what do GAGR's think about this game? I need to pick this correctly to win my tipping comp so I want to ask for comment on the expected result. I see it as a tight game, the Waratah injuries make it difficult to pick them outright, along with some Brumby form in recent weeks. This will not...

    SA Conferense and Derbies

    PB, Whatty, Blue Bull. Can you give an impartial assessment of the winner in this game. I am currently on top of my local tipping comp. My early thoughts were to back the bulls based on recent momentum and no travelling problems to Cape Town. But stormers had a very successful tour and have...

    The Death of the Props

    The league props are only weighing in at 105 - 110 kgs. They don't have the same size and shape as a prop in union, the codes have diverged heavily in this department. A league prop would possibly be useful as a line bending centre or a loose forward if they could keep moving all game...

    Reds v. Crusaders, May 29th, Suncorp - 2011R15

    I haven't read any of the other post match comments, so apologies if this repeats any of the points above. The game was epic, with players out on their feet. Even so there was brilliant composure from both sides to keep performing and keep doing things well. There were no soft tries which I...

    Cipriani

    Sounds like he would do better at the Brumbies. He might be able to use his fame to jag a female PM at our nations capital. That should at least relegate Gits to No 12 on the weekends.

    Cipriani

    The biggest curiosity for me in this whole saga is that Cipriani was the first player signed to the rebels. Does this mean that Macqueen hadn't decided on a no dickheads policy at this point. Or did he think he could reform the party boy. Either way it is a shame that the potential for both...

    Sharks v. Tahs - 2011R15

    PaarlBok; The Sharks have midfield issues. You need to attack them in the 10/12/13 channel. Good signs with Kurtley running off Berrick last week to probe the midfield. I'm confident of the forwards competing well in the set piece and in loose play. Hard to pick this one but I'm going Tahs...

    The ARC 4 years on

    Wait until the changes in the S15 and the Tri nations go through before making decisions on the 3rd tier competition. There are plenty of options but they need to be considered once we see the effects of the longer Super season and the 4 nations. We do have an issue in terms of the skills gap...
