I like that side, but I'd have George Smith starting and Gunn on the bench

Giteau also was guilty of running across field in attack rather than the north/south channel, making it difficult for his outside backs to find space. Yet when he went off injured in the RWC final, we lost some direction.

On your selected back line, I'd say probably QC (Quade Cooper) on the pine. He can certainly play 10, 12, 15, and if 13 is injured then AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) could move in one and QC (Quade Cooper) on the wing.

That means that Giteau won't be playing at 10 then?;)

I think Cheika will be after play making ability from his inside backs. If he had a combination of Foley/Giteau, or of Cooper/To'omua, neither would surprise me. He will be looking for more variation of play than the backs offered v England series. Both Giteau & Cooper bring more versatility in...

Just wondering if the Brumbies might be putting feelers out for Quade Cooper, now that they are suddenly without Lealiifano (Hopefully he makes a full recovery).

Fishing is good today;)

Who the fuck is A Random?

Are the bookies putting out odds on who the next Reds coach is? That would be the big clue.

Yeah. Tell em they're dreaming. Its actually Brad Thorn. That's why he came back to Qld, didn't you know?

Huh, run that past me again.... Game Plan - arrive on time Starter Plays - If you start, you play Attacking Structures - everyone throw the ball to Karevi

Quade should have made up his mind by then as to whom he prefers as HC from the possibles

Actually, BR, I can see the wisdom of Lealiifano at 10. But what I'd have done is try Foley at 12. He is deceptive in his play making, and can make line breaks. The pairing would have had the soap dodgers scratching their scrotums.

You know A to z. Played against the numerals last year.

Good to see some of the posters doing such insight depth analysis. Its obvious to see a considerable amount of your time has been put aside, Scrubber. Maybe you could have just said 'maybe' for Slipper to arrive at the same conclusion.;)

Yesterday afternoon, the soap dodgers requested a meeting with the referee, Craig Joubert. World Rugby regulations state that an invitation must also be extended to the Australian camp to attend, which Cheika & assistance coaches duly did. The article did not mention what the subject matter was...

Not to mention those ladies loitering on street corners down Fortitude Valley way after dark.

But Mumm is on the bench?

Mumm probably covers more positions (lock & loose forward) than Horwill (lock), who played quite well when he came on in the first test. But Mumm doesn't really inspire me - plays the seagull role well.

And that's just the backs.
