McIntyre to start at 10, Greene on the bench is the word on the street.

Pocock's "jazz hands" explained, in response to the ever so lovely Miranda Devine calling him out on it...

Yep, Quade gone for two years to Toulon. Would be 29 when he's off contract, potentially leaving the door open for a tilt back in Oz rugby/RWC19? Pretty devastated but to to be honest it's not much of a shock.

Another very strong game from Liam Gill in an average Reds team...

Is O'Connor in doubt this week? Hearing murmurings of a pretty unusual backline for the Reds.

Reds are still lacking penetrating ball runners in the forwards. This was highlighted last week when Slipper was off and Horwill injured. Think it's time to try someone else at 8, but is Browning the one to step up?

Maybe. But if it happened pre Reds contract and post Suns contract would the WADA rules still come into play? Or has it been worked out he was still signed to the Suns at the time?

Good to see Murday get his first Queensland cap, made a dominant tackle on Wykes that lead to a turnover when the Force were hot on attack. Despite the sloppiness of the contest you have to be happy as a Reds fan, it wasn't pretty but the effort was there. Well done to Lachie Turner and Frisby...

Kearns really is the worst commentator of the lot

So anyway, Turner to fullback and Magnay to wing?

So is it too early for a Reds 2016 thread?

Such a big blow at the start of a season with so much promise.

Some highlights of backline play from 02-05 here

Bizarrely The Parrot is actually anti-CSG, maybe the mining companies haven't kicked in enough advertising or comment on 2GB. Good on Pocock for standing up for something he believes in, but he will have to tread a very fine line after this.

Have watched most of the highlight clips of last year's 2013 as well as the Argie game at Rosario and it's noticeable how prominent Folau was in those games and the amount of opportunities created by him. Makes the John Eales medal win more understandable. Hopefully he has a great game against...

Beale's back - bench named: Res: James Hanson, Tetera Faulkner, Benn Robinson, Will Skelton, Jake Schatz, Will Genia, Quade Cooper, Kurtley Beale.

Higgers is out for the rest of the tour due to the hammy, which is a bummer. No word on who KB (Kurtley Beale) is covering, but doesn't look for Godwin's hopes of getting a run in the remaining games.

His ability to swerve at full pace and the low centre of gravity/stability is very reminiscent of Rupeni, NOT that I want to start making comparisons, but it's who always springs to mind when I see Kerevi make a good run. That ability to glide over ground very quickly without seeming to be...

Funnily enough I watched the Wales v Wallabies pool game from '07 a few nights ago ahead of a trip to Cardiff next weekend and the backline was still pretty formidable. Gregan (who played very well) Barnes (was still green but set up a great try) Mitchell Giteau Mortlock Tuqiri Latham...
