also... i have an inkling that Cooper may have known about the resignation. Didn't look like he wanted to play, seemed disinterested and disheartened even when we were up.

White probably played his last game in gold for a while... even if you exclude that fucked box kick he had a shithouse game. he passes to the man, not to where the man is going to be. like WHAT??? HE PLAYS SCRUM HALF FOR AUSTRALIA and he cant pass like 2m in front of the player so that he runs...

they got 1 now. Greene is making his debut, replacing injured Dalgleish

Personally, I think given the circumstances, Hooper is doing somewhere between okay and pretty well. There isn't really a better option at the moment so i think he is safe. Whilst he shouldn't have spoken up in defence of Beale, he was backing a mate and i know i'd do the same if I (perhaps)...

rewatching the first half now, i am so impressed by Houggard. Sweet delivery every time but more importantly, he seems like a player who really cares - especially on those cover tackles on Tomane & AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)'s trys. Players like that are the difference between tier 1 teams and the rest. And shit he is...

Considering we have our battering ram at 13 in Kurindrani, i think that the Khunt could have a part to play at 12 next year if he gets played there for reds - might not if Graham decides to play him at 15 and Taps gets the nod at 12, but taps has been playing at 13 under graham.... not a good thing

thoughts on the hunt at 12? With To'omua underperforming at national level this year i reckon that could be his best chance at cracking the wobs.

pocock - fetcher in the tight. palu/skelton even - enforcer hooper/higgers - ball runner in the loose that is actually how i think of those players.

Can someone clarify the main differences between a 6 and a 7 and why it would be a bad idea for pocock to play 6? for mine, flankers blokes who hang around the ball trying to make a nuisance of themselves at breakdowns. They should be able to do a little bit of lineout work too (which i think...

i like the idea of higgers to 6 and fardy into the second row.

was going through this forum, don't remember posting this one... but maybe i should become a talent scout? you, not so much braveheart

wow, long rehab. i thought he'd be back in time

whats the dealio with chris sautia?

did you really ring your lawyer man? making the same point is not the same as plagiarism.

Lilo won't be in the 23. Sure, he could kick at 90% last year. but this year its been at 50-60%. Also, who would he replace? Granted that there are no injuries he isn't going to take a spot, based on his kicking, over beale, foley or To'omua. To add to that QC (Quade Cooper), who Link would hold in higher value...

Only just got on this thread, but I'm a qld'er living in nsw. so state of origin first, state of choice second. i like the force too but dislike the brumbies, even though i like their players as individuals. Just out of interest. Seeing as aussie's (& nz'ers?) hate both south africa and...

fuck yeah. as a qld'er living in nsw i'm stoked. they are the most fun team to watch and that finishing try to bernard gave me the biggest goosebumps

uni bros was a nailbiter. 1point in it until the dying minutes when uni scored the winner. Uni forwards outdid bros in almost every aspect, just looked like they wanted it more; especially in first half. But brothers crawled back and hung in there. was a weird game IMO. felt for such a close...

just back to the greene, mcintyre thing. i reckon greene has a higher ceiling and suits the reds style more. Having a proper 90%+ kicker who can also kick immensely well in general play seems to be something the reds would be lacking next year. Either way neither of them will probably get a...

Skelton to start with Simmons for mine. Bruise people and evoke hesitation in his opponents. Then bring on Carter/Horwill to play the tighter role at the end of the game where it is more crucial
