I have been pondering the "pop pass". On the weekend the highlanders halfback gets tackled and falls to the ground rolling onto his back. He is flat on the ground but throws a pop pass. Why is that not playing the ball off your feet. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Yes but it was the Captains choice to go long to try for a maul and 4th try according to Larkham on the Radio. If you try for extra length then errors can happen. In other words it was not his bad decision. We just had a failure of execution. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

You could say that about all the Wallaby players over the last few years. Apart from playing Wales the Wallabies have been quite patchy. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Yes and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) seems to be exempted from criticism for missing Thomas twice in his try and nearly letting one through on the other wing when he blocked Foley and missed the tackle. Fortunately we had Tomane to clean it up. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

No, in the tri nations we could always manage a podium finish. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

I can understand only two pages on the game. It was a nightmare and the less said about it the better. Mogy has paid the price for inconsistency and defence. However, he is a talent and it would be good for Australian Rugby if he rectified these deficiencies. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Good luck to the team. With your rate of improvement you might have to seek some competition from further afield. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

One way to increase the time in play is to stop the delays at the scrum when forwards take an "injury " rest. Have a set time to get the scrum set and if it is not the first side ready should have the option of a scrum with the feed or a free kick. You could do the same with line outs. Sent...

Well done. I have enjoyed your posts and look forward to next season. When does it start? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

You might be right but I don't see why the other countries would follow our lead seeing that they have no need to make their rugby more attractive and their kicking makes it more attractive to have penalties. I can't see SA wanting to surrender their advantage, NZ Seems to combine flowing...

It won't become bigger in Australia if Australia keeps losing which we surely will if we discourage the development of decent kicking skills. We still struggle to select a reliable kicker in our best 23 and we don't seem to be able to produce kickers in the class as NZ, South Africa or England...

I thought he might like to round of with a spray at the judiciary. :-) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

I think it is that he doesn't think Link has sufficient faith in his ability or trust that he will be selected on form rather than having no faith in his own ability. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Sadly, as a. Brumbies supporter I am not confident. It is frustrating that apart from the Crusaders, we loose to the bottom teams. We have lost to the cheetahs, the reds and the rebels. Unfortunately that is not what you would expect from a genuine contender. It is so frustrating but I live...

Why can' t the Wararahs pull 132,000 which is the pro rata crowd on a population basis? On the game itself, the conditions were bad and I thought it was amazing that there were relatively few handling errors. When I got to the game I was expecting quite a bit of dropped ball. Sent from my...

No 4 points for a bye this year:-( Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

He was as far as the forming of the line out but I believe he erred in at least one instance when he allowed a quick throw in after Nick White had handled the ball when it had bounced into touch. As White had not carried the ball into touch his handling of the ball cancels the option. Law 19.2...
