As you said I believe it certainly relates to how the team plays and the other players in the team (what are the strengths) . At a starting point you would want a consistent passer who reads the game well, is a strong communicator and kicks accurately in general play. As a base level. On top...

I think that's a fair comment when you consider: 9. Brumbs 10. Reds 12. Tahs 13. Brumbs Fair bit of disconnect there.

I just don't think Hodge brings what is required of a intl starting 10. He is a good footy player however everything he does is just kind of average (in the test arena). I'm OK with him coming off the bench for 15 mins at the end of the game to stand deep, plug the corners with his big slow...

I just cannot get around Hodge being our starting 10. With out current injury toll I'm OK with him covering multiple positions on the bench but if he is the best we have at fly half then fuck me we are cooked. I'd have both Lolesio and JOC (James O'Connor) starting at 10 over him. However I'd have him on the...

Could not agree more with this mate. It also balances out our ballrunners for the full 80 with Bell starting and TT coming on later in the game around the time Bell will come off.

Agree with this Reg. I've chatted with quite a few guys who have done a stint over there and one of the common things I hear is that it isn't as physical. What that does is free up a bit more mental space for players to focus on other aspects of their play during the games. Obviously the...

Does anyone, who has been paying more attention than I, have a list of injured Wobs players and short/medium/long term diagnosis? Was just thinking about Perese and how I haven't seen anything about the severity of it yet. Obviously looks like a serious one.

Just had lunch around the corner from SUNCORP. Nice to see a few people getting around with wallaby supporter gear on. A few roses getting about too. Weather is great in bris today. Perfect rugby conditions.

Need to make sure Paisami has his tackling technique on point for the weekend. Don't want another 14 man performance with a slipped up tackle/adrenaline. Powerful team. Should be an interesting game. Need Petaia and Wright to have good early touches for their confidence otherwise I could be a...

In what could be a double blow to the Rebels I've heard Luke Jones is coming to the Reds.

This is the impression I got as well. Seemed to be precautionary to ensure he is right for the remainder of the series. If he isn't I was happy with Noah and would like to see him continue to start. Phillip in, Tupou in, the rest of the starting pack unchanged. Holloway to the bench if fit...

Hodge nowhere near the 23 please. We have much better players available to fill 22/23. I am genuinely shocked that muppet Hill hasn't been cited. How a 2 hand aggressive/violent push to the head of a player who doesn't even have the ball isn't a red card is beyond me. No different to a punch in...

Kellaway did really well there. True rest match winger(currently playing 15)

Thought that was a tough pen against slip

You've got to be a special piece of shit to take my most hated English player award from Farrell so congratulations you grubby, pinhead dipshit... you just did.

I saw this earlier too. Can't believe that went uncalled. Wouldn't be surprised to see it sighted. The guys is a full fucking grub

Sitting in my own moment. That lovely moment before the Wallabies play their first test for the year. A moment of hope... hope that they will come out like the Wallabies I supported growing up which fed by passion for the Gold and for the game. A moment before the disappointment of more recent...

Testing the interpretations of the ref... Like any decent 7 does. 1st one could have cone the other way with a different ref.

I wondered what had happened to him. Was very impressed with him a few years ago and was disappointed the Reds hadn't got him in their system.
