    2012 Rugby Championship Round 3 Game 1 Australia vs South Africa - 8 Sep

    Your point? Phil Kearns opinions have zero relevance. He is coated in fake tan and full of hot air.

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

    the only thing it changes is that he was good in the game and a major threat throughout. don't recall ever analysing his career, just correcting your misstatement that he was poor.

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

    got some early morning mail today from a mate who went over to auckland, he returned to the hotel (same one as the wobblies) after dinner and drinks at just after midnight and guess who was sinking beers in the hotel bar? Quade and Kurtley a solid professional attitude no doubt.

    Injuries deprives him of much consistency for the rebels but the times when he did get to have a few runs I thought he was one of our best. Hard runner constantly getting over the line and often drawing in two players. Good hands and passing. Excellent defense and he hits rucks when needed...

    if you were a rebels fan and watched all the rebels games with JOC (James O'Connor) at 12 this year, you wouldn't say that. he's not a super 15 IC let alone a Test IC. he's a wing or a full back and maybe...maybe one day a fly half. not a 12 at all.

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

    for clarification - quade was sufficient at best, but was prevented from getting into his groove at 10 for whatever reason due to barnes. i thought beale was useless. i would be happy to see him remain on the bench or be dropped all up. put JOC (James O'Connor) on the wing and coops at FB in Beales' stead...

    front row positives all around moore played with some tenacity. yes that lost ball in the first half was "shit" to quote alexander but overall, they held their own second row- sharpe a few questionable penalities. timani was excellent and should/must hold his place. he played with vigour and...

    don't agree with that. sonny was dangerous all night and pretty much at a minimum double teamed. he was one poor pass away from setting up a great try. he was quiet as far as run metres, but he did a hell of a lot more than SFA - more to centres than tries. A faainga missed a few tackles...

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

    with the right pack and bench, i don't think this game is a right off. but deans needs a pretty big change in selection. both barnes and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) are excellent defenders, particularly in the centres, so i don't think much is lost with either of them. i'm not the world's biggest QC (Quade Cooper) fan in test...

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

    I think hooper would be a bad option. this all blacks unit has rendered an out and out fetcher useless - unless supported by a fit enough pack (which the wallabies clearly are not). pocock was nowhere to be seen on saturday and i can't see any reason to suggest that hooper would be any better...

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

    please stop brining up the scotland loss. that was an ARU and mother nature issue, not a deans issue. samoa - it was a trial match for fringe players predominantly. and many of those players underestimated the quality of the samoan team. i don't lay as much blame on deans for this. it was clear...

    Wallabies Backup Scrum-half

    i'd go kinghi. 9,10,11,14 and 15. plus if he has to go in for the final 10-15 mins he has another dimension - being his excellent attack either form the ruck or counter attack. he is much better than phipps. his injury at the start of this year was a shame as on form he would have remained ahead...

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

    I rate him as a coach more than some of you. However if aus don't come 2nd in the RC or higher, I'd say he's gone. Giving the new coach time to work with the team before the lions. Lions will beat wallabies on form Cheika, mckenzie, mallet and white should all be considered.

    Rugby League take on 7's

    just watched a youtube clip of 9's. its worse than regular league because its meant to be a faster more flowing version and it isn't! they still have the kick rules, they still don't contest the breakdown. booorree off, mungoes!
