    Definitely worth a try. Good player that. Good hands, physical, and gets round the park.

    Go on. Whats your starting 15 from what we know so far?

    Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

    I think there will definitely be a few of the NH players in the squad inside the release window. The NH clubs have no choice, at least: Faf Dupreez Bros x3 de Allende Akker vd Merwe Coenie Oosthuizen Vincent Koch Not clear what happens with the Japan players who are sitting idle. Like Marx...

    12.5% contraction of the economy. There was a better way. But they love her.

    Not so much I don't think. Actually now I see him being listed as an openside on most sites so I clearly have no idea what I am talking about :D

    Perhaps he will experiment with Wilson at 6? Why not?

    Fair enough. I am biased :) I agree nobody can really fulfil those roles 100% but that should be the kind of ceiling you look for. That is the blueprint. I believe the Kiwi Frizell is 95% there. He scares the living shite out of me. Has all the skills. The Pom's Curry, albeit a little light...

    Until Australia finds a 6 that fulfils all the critical roles of the modern 6 with distinction, they will not be able to have a consistently competitive pack. Everyone plays a fast game now. There is no such magical gear any longer. A great 6 is a unique animal that can play like 7 at times...

    The UK based players will arrive late. So they will have to quarantine separately and not selected for the first test, possibly 2. Let's rather wait for next year's fictitious vaccine.

    Right now those players have not played any rugby and have been in contact training for a week. It is complete madness.

    SANZAR sits and talks about the money and the sponsors and not much about rugby. SA Rugby might well be against it, driven by the coaches. Mixed messages.

    I suspect SA are going to decline involvement. Cannot see how they can cobble a squad together. Pollard also with a season ending injury now.

    Beat me to it. Clearly has not. Watched Permiership games live earlier this year and last year. Watch quite a bit of the European rugby on tele. It is like watching a different human being.

    "Skelton is problematic as it means we are a lineout jumper short but that could be combated with Wright at 6, LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) and an 8 who can jump also" Taking enough ball at 2. Trimmed down. Gets up more than well enough. Pick a proper 6 at 6 and an 8 that can jump and this is a non-issue. Skelton...

    Right. Will Gladys allow us to partake I wonder?

    No. It will go ahead. All about money and nothing else. Logic has long since left the building.

    Rugby Championship in an Aussie bubble?

    Should be Bledisloe only. Boks will be too undercooked. It's a zero sum game for us. All the SA based players returned to contact training last week only. The European based players have had 2 weeks of rugby. SA domestic season only starting (perhaps) in November. Japan based players...

    9. White 10. JOC (James O'Connor) 12. To'omua To me that is totally obvious. No discussion. White and To'omua take a ton of kicking pressure off JOC (James O'Connor). White kicks for goal. Best of the 3 (stats-wise I stand to be corrected?). I would not pick JOC (James O'Connor) at 10 without those two on either side because they complement...

    No marching. Gladys won't be happy. No way Rennie does not pick Hooper. But I think he needs to be relieved of the burden of captaincy and just put all his energy into what he has to do, which is always a lot.

    All Blacks vs Kangaroos?

    NO NO NO NO NO NO.
