Injured. Or something.

"Weird" would have been my description. Unless one of them is actually a full-back in disguise?

Maybe they are hoping that Joseph Sua'ali'i will change his mind and join us in the international sunlight instead of playing that other awful, insular, game.

Yep, they are pretty adept. But of course back in the good old, bad old, days, national allegiance was a pretty malleable quality. Des Connor flew to New Zealand and became an All Black almost overnight. In the same era, club rugby in Sydney was based on residential qualification. If you...

Marky Mark (Nawaqanitawase) is a possibility at 15 if he has learned to tackle and kick in the off season.

One year. Not exactly a firm commitment, eh?

The Irish have made an art form out of poaching.

We lived on the Central Coast at the time, the Irish were based there, and Terrigal was heaving with their supporters. Never seen anything like it.

I am pretty sure that every game was a full house back in 2003.

One would hope that he wasn't "told" - a player at this level has choices. If this was the best option for both the player and the team, he should buy in.

Not a bad effort, Reg. Gee I hope Pone can make it. I want to see him run through Sinckler.

I would be gobsmacked if LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) does not tour.

The penny has dropped that a significant share of their readership are rah rahs. No point upsetting them for nothing.

The only thing that can work is a collaborative approach, although some kind of player draft would be worth looking at for new entrants.

If Skelton starts against England we will need another two lineout specialists. I would pick LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) at 6 to provide one of the specialist jumpers.

Why not really stoop and bring back Jeremy Tilse.

Maybe they take us a bit easy. They all looked well off the pace, not up for the contest at all. That said, they did get pretty close, it could have been two wins for them.

I was told by a mate who played at the highest level that loose head prop was more difficult, but that was 40 years ago. Something to do with only engaging with one shoulder.

We have always had some good, even world class, locks. We have had some pretty dire props. Takes a long time for perceptions to change, I reckon.
