    Ewen McKenzie: Wallaby Coach

    I think you've nailed it Cyclopath. We want to see the right attitude, hunger and desire and scrummaging, physicality and defence are as much about these as is technique. Sometimes watching the Wallabies is a bit like playing golf for me - I am a poor golfer but if I can belt one long drive or...

    Ewen McKenzie: Wallaby Coach

    Not r Not really. The Spring tour Wallabies (12 Waratahs) only returned to Waratah's training in the first week of January, and the Super Rugby season started some 5 weeks later. That's 12 players from his starting team who he only had for that short time plus Folau who was new to rugby. Yes he...

    Rugby League players who could have/could make the switch

    JWH could play as a TH Lock in a heartbeat, in the Brad Thorn mould. Recruitment is about judgement and vision. Ben Kennedy, Rocky Elsom and JWH all represented at Australian Schoolboy level and presented as aggressive, competitive big guys with skills. I'll say it again - big, aggressive...

    Agree Swat. For Australian Rugby at the moment; 1 Great Tight forward = 3 Good Outside backs. Why not pay them accordingly?

    Is his nickname seriously "White Gorilla" and if so, is it acceptable to use it?

    Rugby League players who could have/could make the switch

    I'd say we fucked up, he was under our noses. As you say he played OZ schoolboys, 1st grade and ARC rugby and was big and aggressive all the way through. Types like him are as rare as rocking horse shit. Those of you who watched the movie "Blindside"will remember that NY Giants lionbacker...

    ARU moves to kill off club player payments: A 3rd tier, club rugby and the $60k persuader

    Uni crushed Eastwood 51-6 in the grand final. Eastwood had only lost 2 games all season until then - have Eastwood lifted their standard of performance noticeably or were they about 15-20 Super rugby standard players short at the end of the season against Uni?

    Gavin, are you out there? You've made some claims that don't look too solid.

    ARU moves to kill off club player payments: A 3rd tier, club rugby and the $60k persuader

    I don't think you answered the question at all. Your benchmarks in AFL, hospitality??? and RL are ludicrous. Let's pick apart your RL benchmark. Rugby League has no cap on how much clubs can spend on their coaching/support staff or facilities. West Tigers and Parramatta have amongst the the...

    Yep, the Wallabies are racking up some fantastic frequent flyer miles and still have the EOYT to top them up.

    Springboks v Wallabies, Newlands, September 28 2013

    Blue, I think your first 5 points are spot on. Re No 6 I think the majority of the scuffling came about because the Wallabies decided not to cop the bully boy tactics of the Boks.

    Yep damn any rules, full speed ahead. If you can break import rules then why not take performance enhancement drugs, build a longer and wider field, poison the opposition's water...just bloody well go for it. Then when school finishes these fine young men with these ingrained morals and values...
