    2012 Rugby Championship Game 2 New Zealand vs Australia - 25 August

    Bring on Gill if Pocock is out. I'm with Waylon If (and that's a big if) Deans picks the right team we could cause a boil over. If they get off the line quicker in defence & play a more positive/attacking backline I think we could do it. Some players will be forgiven for last night some won't...

    Wallabies Positivity Thread . .

    Sharpe was a positive, Timani was a lot better than expected. Digby Ioane proved that running from deep with good body height is better than standing flat footed.

    The ranting at Deans/ARU/O'Neill/Players thread

    Again they were classed as very good Wallaby players at the end of their career but a good majority were rejects in the Sydney club comp & ended up at the Brumbies. Majority of those very good Wallabies were also around in 1997 when we lost to the Argies. A very smart coach made that team as...

    A) Barnes included I think next week we need Cooper for a couple of good reasons. 1. Th All Blacks will be worried about his wide passing game. 2. Our Forwards can then look to get over the advantage line & produce quick ball with pick & drives & running as pods.

    The ranting at Deans/ARU/O'Neill/Players thread

    I totally disagree about picking the right team & we should expect to lose to the All Blacks. People have always said that man for man we aren't as good as the All Blacks even in the MacQueen era but we had a 71% win rate & that was purely because we played better as a team & MacQueen along with...

    The ranting at Deans/ARU/O'Neill/Players thread

    Mank, I note the sarcasm but this just keeps happening under his leadership we need change, it may not fix anything but we need to try. We played better when we spent less time with Deans during the inbound tests & I hate the excuse that we don't have the cattle because I know we do.

    Ok even now that I've calmed down I can give Beale and Fainga'a an extra 1 but Higgers stays.

    2012 Rugby Championship Game 2 New Zealand vs Australia - 25 August

    Busy week ahead for Robbie he has to teach them how to kick, pass, catch & tackle & on top of that he will have to make up a different game plan & teach them how to come up off the line in defence in a straight line.

    15. Beale (0) Yes actually zero he did nothing good in this game at all. 14. AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) (4) dropped a high ball but otherwise did nothing wrong. 13. Horne (5) Actually finished the game pretty strong. 12. Fainga'a (2) He's actually a pretty good super rugby player. 11. Ioane (7) Was good did nothing...

    The ranting at Deans/ARU/O'Neill/Players thread

    Just getting in early, for some reason I just have feeling this is going to be 2009 all over again. What area are they going to stuff up tonight in 2009 it was basically everything in 2010 it was re-starts/kick offs in 2011 it was defence & then at the world cup it was attack that went to shit...

    Rugby TV Shows

    The rugby club is shit until Kafer has something to say. Foxtel or any television network would be better off bringing in neutral commentators for test matches. So we should have the Saffas call our game this week or bring in one of the six nations commentators to call the game.

    2012 Rugby Championship Game 1 Australia vs New Zealand - 18 August

    I just can't believe that he has picked Timani over Simmons, Douglas, Pyle & Neville. I just become depressed when I think about the team & the match on saturday & how fucked in the head Robbie Deans is. I can live with Rob Horne being in the team but Timani & Phipps is beyond belief that...

    So, who here thinks Deans is the coach we need?

    He must go now. He had his chance & he failed he should have been shipped after the RWC. This latest Wallaby 22 he's announced is proof that he is only getting worse.

    Who would you bring into the Wallabies?

    A young Stirling Mortlock would be fantastic didn't anyone see Chooseday night rugby this week with Larkham & Mortlock carving up the Chiefs? Mortlock was such a wicked outside centre.

    Who would you bring into the Wallabies?

    Hugh McMeniman & Ewen McKenzie.

    Seems like Deans is going to start Timani, All Blacks by 90. Well done Deans you don't even hide the sabotage anymore.

    Aus rugby areas of depth and weakness

    Fullback can be covered by JOC (James O'Connor) & AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper). Inside centre #12: Barnes, JOC (James O'Connor), Tapuai Outside centre # 13: AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper), McCabe, Fainga'a & Horne I still think our best centre combo is Barnes & AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper).
