    Australia v England

    Please quote where I said they were "titanic leaders". Don't put words in my mouth and then use them as a basic for argument. I used the word "rarely" with purpose because I am well aware that other captains (the two I mentioned included) do get roasted. At no stage did I say that "only Hooper...

    Australia v England

    Want to engage with your base during tough times (or any times - but people are going to be more receptive during the good times naturally)? Don't thrust a divisive individual in front of them. *edit* divisive is the wrong word - polarising is the one I am after. As to your second point, TJ...

    Australia v England

    Hooper has twice been heard to tell refs that his players aren't listening to him. And they weren't. I have never heard any other captain say that ever (and no captain should ever do so). Hooper is constantly dismissed by referees while the other two were not. When the other two make...

    Australia v England

    I think Barabarian's post earlier paraphrasing the Dave Dennis story gives some perspective that muddies the waters of that particular decision. Having a feel for the game and recognising the effect a particular game changing decision may have is something that good captains will have. I doubt...

    https://www.smh.com.au/sport/rugby-union/cheika-to-front-rugby-australia-board-as-player-tensions-surface-20181125-p50i96.html Did Hooper know about the "indiscretion" and do nothing about it until team mates forced the issue? Earlier reports indicated that the coaching staff and management...

    Australia v England

    Wallaby skills are horribad. Nothing new - just reaffirming the bleeding obvious.......... again. There is no way they are practising the things they are trying to do on the field. *edit* - don't bother coming back, guys. Just stay over there and get a job pulling beers or something where...

    Interesting interpretation by the referee on Farrell's shoulder charge there.

    Australia v England

    Does this mean that the SMH "journalists" are now going to make up some shit about Cheika sleeping with one of his assistants? I can't see us getting even remotely close to a functioning England side. Whether England are a functioning side remains to be seen though.

    The selections reek of a desperate coaching staff tbh.

    Reds 2019

    The squad looks too 12 and 13 heavy. It looks too light at 15 and the wings. Playing people out of position is dumb and rarely works - and fucks up young guy's development. Reds recruiting processes are just haphazard and without planning. They are a bad organisation.

    Wallabies v Italy

    Actually the "not straight" throws were set as the standard earlier - it's a bit harsh to start calling them now

    Wallabies v Italy

    What do the wallabies actually do at training? It certainly isn't any kind of teamwork or drills judging by what they are doing on the field at the moment. have they even met each other before the match today?

    Wallabies v Italy

    It Isn't Necessary That's is what ALL of us have been saying ALL of this time. FFS - are you posting this shit to be deliberately antagonising, or are you truly blind to the concept that other people actually have different thoughts?

    Wallabies v Italy

    And yet anyone else's comments are just whinging or provincial bias.........

    Wallabies v Italy

    You are completely missing the point - that part of your statement is wrong.

    Wallabies v Italy

    It's not. The last time Cheika ran Foley at 12 he crowded the 10, and in some instances interfered with the 10 and it was around kinds of shit. You have called it whinging, accused people of provincial bias (LOL I'm not even from canberra and the brumbies are my least favourite team in...
