    I'd suggest that Adam has the rights of the bigger picture here.

    RWC Pool C - Australia v Wales - 5AM 25 Sep AEST

    Is Eddies plan to run a deep 10? I had thought he wanted a flat 10 involved in the direction of the game behind forwards going forward. They ended up deep, not by plan but by failure to execute the plan, I suspect. That fail might be either because ta) he plan isn't good enough or b) they...

    Yeah, but. They breed them differently over there. ;)

    RWC: Pool C - Wallabies v Fiji - Monday 18 Sep 2am AEST

    Completely. He has been silent. Eddie has openly stated that the England fans should continue blaming himself and let the English coaching squad get on with things. I can't remeber anything remotely like gloating from Cheika regarding either Rennie or EJ (Eddie Jones).

    FFS 10. If another poster does not understand or agree with your point after 3 or 4 attempts, LET IT GO, WALK AWAY. It is very boring for other posters when the thread gets hijacked by two people having an argument. Let this be your guide:

    And from there the obvious response is separation. A successful comp requires a roughly equal distribution of talent to level the playing field. If it can't be done - locking the major clump of talent into selected teams - the next best solution is a roughly equaL playing field with lessor...

    Any one of Quade, Foley or JOC (James O'Connor) would very likely have been able to calm things considerably better than Gordon did here.

    Wallabies 2023

    FWIW we seem to have dropped to 9 on the rankings. Again. Behind Fiji, Wales and England, but ahead of Argentina.

    RWC: Pool C - Wallabies v Fiji - Monday 18 Sep 2am AEST

    I don't think the Fijians were accurate over the ball in the ruck, nor do I think the ref "was right about the calls". Which is different to being consistent and that is primarily what we are after. Many of the pinged (for Fiji) turnovers had hands in front of the ball on the ground, no clear...

    RWC: Pool C - Wallabies v Fiji - Monday 18 Sep 2am AEST

    Awesome work Fiji. We are fingers crossed for runners up. Wallabies never got into that game. Ref hands were all over that game, I'm not thinking biassed but definitely had an impact with interpretations that we just didnt click to. And it's not as if penalties didn't go to us that I would...

    Maaybe time is precious. And we haven't looked particularly close to scoring. Difficult, if not unlikely.
