Frustrating game- our set piece needs a bit of work, but feel like we are clawing back in the scrums.

Tricky thing is that even if a war dance could be historically dated, it would likely be specific to one particular Aboriginal group. If you invented one, I imagine it would be made in Sydney and probably inappropriate to use in other states or regions. Welcome to country is understood and...

8 teams don't need 3 weeks of finals. Week 1: 1 v 4, 2 v 3. Week 2: Winners in Week 1 final.

I thought a lot of Dave Wessels prior to this season. Thinking again...

Fixed it for you ;)

Koro defo man of the match...

Was there a blatant knock on in the lead up to that try or am I going blind?

That's a really unfortunate situation- but the ref got that one right at least.

Yes- that's shameful- TMO can call on a non-knock on but misses an actual knock-on in the same two phases?

Damn straight. The Rebels are just plain dumb at times. It's embarrassing to watch. Noone really showering themselves in glory in this one.

And they aren't going back for the penalty because?

Damn straight- doesn't this referee know the rules?

I've never seen a player own a test match like Pocock in the 2011 Quarter final (Jonah Lomu '95 maybe?). He deserves special credit for that.

Ahhh! I can see they've finally let you in on Daryl Gibson's objective.

I'll confess I have seen as much of Slipper recently, but the appeal of him is that I feel Sio brings more bench impact. I feel like Slipper is the smarter player (I feel like I heard a commentator saying he was a 10 in school...) and maybe there is value in that earlier on in a game.

After this weekend's matches, my Wallabies starting line up would be: 1. Slipper 2. Fainga'a 3. AAA 4. Arnold 5. Rodda 6. Jones 7. Hooper (but you make a great point TSR) 8. Naisarani 9. Genia 10. Cooper (don't think you can have a KK midfield with Foley) 11. Korobeite (but I am really not...

I think Beale is best suited to being a super sub. DHP may not have the x-factor of Beale, but he is more reliable. Beale better suited to the loose last 20 minutes of the game.

Impressed with Beale's D tonight.

You tell him Derpus! I hate that guy... ;)

I'm pretty comfy with the locks we have. Thought I'd throw out a speculator. Truth be told, I think we'd lose more to overseas in the Giteau law than with that form of Skelton law.
