It seems McCabe's injury isn't as bad as firt thought. He'll be back playing in the Brumbies game on the 31st May. If he is selectd (which I am anticipating), then this forum will go into hyperspeed melt-down. On the positive news front, George Smith's knee is grade 2. This means he'll be...

I agree on the rationale. But practicaly, if Timani or Horwill go down with injury in the first 60 minutes of a test and Dennis came on to replace them, you can kiss any chance of winning good bye. The Northerns would jump on this like a fat kid on a cup cake and our scrums would be decimated...

Yes..... and I want some.

I think we're more likely to see Chariots Carter at 12 than Volavola.

No. Simply put he doesn't have the requisite experience.

We've already got too many threats dedicated to Quade. If you want to read more on Quade Cooper I can point you in the direction of the following threads..... another one would be superfluous Wallabies Watch Wallabies 12 Man Squad Reds 2013 Reds 2014 Quade Cooper in need of a makeover

I don't think Cooper has seen anyt lucrative offers from NRL.... that was all hyperbole when Cooper was going through contract renegotiations to drive up his price. Realistically, there was interest from the NRL, not no lucrative offers as you suggest.

But CFS is playing at 13, not 12. Fainga'a is playing 12 at the reds at the moment - and he's hardly setting the world on fire. The difference between Taps and Fainga'a is that Fainga'a is not expected to play any sort of 'play maker' role whereas Taps is.

Halleluja..... someone speaking sense.

I think someone else has raised it before. But Cheiks faces a selection debate this week as to what to do with Barnes. For my mind I'd like to see Barnes get at least 60 minutes of football this week in preparation for the Lions series. So do you start Barnes at 10,12 or 15.... if so, who do...

.... didn't that happen last year?

Players in contention for the final six squad places: The composition of the final squad places is largely unkown, however it is likely that we will see at least one halfback, a second row, a fullback / wing, a prop, potentially a third hooker or another backrow and at least one inside back or...

Well, name names then.

I do..... It's simple. TOO MANY TAHS TOO MANY TAHS. Same. Old. Broken. Record.

This is rugby, not gridiron

Sorry, please forgive me. I was wrong. All hail King Cooper.

Jesus, some people amaze me... Quade Cooper is not the only attacking player in Australia....

And how do you figure that? Sure it'll be boring with Genia, O'Connor, Lealiifano, Ashley Cooper, Tomane, Cummins and Folau... real boring. Hell even Horne sliced through a few gaps and passed the pill against the ponies...

No real kicking option at the back. We'll see Barnes in the 15 jersey for sure. The question is whether Folau will be selected at 14.

I don't think that's far wrong. We may see both White and Burgess in the hunt...
