It’s the only place to find consistency. Every young 10 has gone through struggles early on, it’s part of the process Disagree with your view on Donaldson’s season. Thought he was constantly better than Noah was , and in a much worse team

Inconsistency is to be expected while he is inexperienced. He had his best Super season this year because he was playing 10 every game instead of the musical chairs they played at the Tahs We know who Noah is at this stage, only way to find out if Donaldson is better is to play him

He was the most criticised player in Australia last year, he hardly dodged criticism. He hasn’t had nearly the amount of chances Noah has gotten, and He possesses the raw skills to be really good

I like the Tizzano call. Can’t be picking players out of position and Tizzano is the best genuine 7 in the squad. I think he’s going to surprise people Also happy that Donaldson is getting the 10 jersey. He’s been the best 10 in Aus this year and if he can iron out his inconsistent play at...

He was literally 23 when he dismantled the Lions

I think I know what's happening here, you seem to be confusing Carter Gordon with Dan Carter

They are deemed to be better players because they are better players. Gordon is instantly behind the 8 ball because he goal kicks like an under 8's player trying for the first time Players are always instantly better when they aren't playing

True, although am I the only one that thinks Hodgman is a far better option than Slipper right now?

Great to see Toole there. Guy is a match winner

I get it’s injury forced, but Tom Hooper is as much of a 7 as I am an astronaut

oh no, be careful what you wish for I guess Having to call up a guy to make his debut at 7 vs the Springboks is less than ideal. Out of that list I'd go Gamble

It's the amateurish nature of it all that annoys me. If you know the team, name the team. And if you know the team, train as a team. And if you don't know a team, tell us when you plan on naming a team This just feels like the same chaos of last years World cup announcement with Eddie naming a...

I wouldn't think reading a squad list would make people incapable of watching the Olympics. If this is seriously the reason RA need to give their head's a wobble

It's wild that we don't even know when they are naming their squad

Have you seen the QRL?

Thing is the evolution involved teams going for bigger back rows, as opposed to Robinson going for a really undersized one

Springboks have named their squad and have started camp today prior to flying out. Bizarre the wallabies aren’t doing the same, especially with how Schmidt talked about his lack of prep time on numerous occasions

Problem is the makeup of the loose Forwards. With Cane, Papaili, Savea and Jacobson you have 4 open sides. Seems super undersized

I think our talent pool is pretty good all things considered. If countries like Ireland, Scotland, Italy etc. lost the amount of players overseas that we did they would struggle terribly. Guys like Mack Hansen, Jack Dempsey, Finley Bealham show that players that cant really dominate here are...

Are we forgetting Italy lost to NZ 96-17 less than a year ago and just lost to Samoa? These rankings are flawed as anything. And has nothing to do with player talent pools. Italy have some good players, but would Monty Ioane make the Wallabies?
