That could be a lot of money to be put into junior and regional rugby.

Both have good attributes and assets to our test side but I think it is arse about. Selecting Cooper on the bench is expecting him to pull off some freaky shit which is a narrow view of his rugby abilities. I think he is better used by allowing him to stamp his mark on the game from the get...

Love your work David Pocock. It is people like you that will cease Australia further tumbling into the social gutter. Good on you David Pocock on following your moral compass to the point of meaningful action rather than faceless pissing, moaning and hot air on the internet without the courage...

Well I was going to say that he wasn't an innocent clean cut boy boy like Michael Hooper but thought that might have been a little cheeky.

That PCYC cafe that used to be at the Caxton Street end of Suncorp is where we met him. Bloke only went in for a coffee but that didn't stop him from saying hello. My brother explained that this game was our annual trip down from Darwin to watch the Reds vs Brumbies. When he learnt we had...

How many babies does that bloke eat for breakfast?

After reading his book, I was gobsmacked at how impressive he is in the top 4 inches. Respect isn't a powerful enough word to describe him. I think he is set to do some wonderful things in this world long after his rugby days are finished. That he walks the walk rather than talk the talk...

Forget about Simmons. You have just described the common problem in Australian rugby.

Depends on what you would describe as attractive. A craft executed well with technique and attention to detail is my idea of attractive rugby. Mauls and scrums remind me that rugby is a game of skill and intellect and if I was interested in dumbed down flair I would turn to league. Not to...

I don't know shit about S&C but he is to big and slow. He has some bloody good skills that can be developed on but I can't help but think he would be better if a bit lighter, get around the park a bit quicker and get through more game time. He is always going to be a big boy but he is...

Rugby has always been a niche sport. Some view it from within the niche and some view it from outside the niche. Those to views have never really been given a chance to meet.

Ah screw him, bugger off if he doesn't want to aim to be a Wallaby. I can understand when an aging player or one who is badly injury hampered looking off shore for the coin but players who haven't even peaked don't show intent to compete for a Wallaby cap shouldn't let the door bite them on the...

They did the same to our Saturday afternoon Aussie Rules up here.

You make it sound like he is single handed going to lose us the test. He was good enough to be brought on tour so he should be good enough to be given game time. We could have a real gem waiting but we don't have the will to find out. He could easily have been on the bench vs Ireland rather...

Like him or not, you got to admire his resilience and how he brings that side together.

It would really suck if he didn't get a chance on this tour and even more insulting that they flew Saint Beale over and gave him game time.

Why is this still lingering in the suggested threads section?

I have a high regard for Nick Phipps. He is made of some very strong stuff and in comparison I think he is fare better at remaining composed under pressure than Genia. He toils bloody hard when on back foot ball and we are seeing what he can do when the quality of ball is more favorable. He...

Things are just so much of a mess in the wallabies. Getting away with wins for the rest of the tour will be a great outcome. There is just no way that it is possible for Chieka to work on the bigger picture things. I will be happy to see the back of this wallaby season and without doubt more...

Hard to give 'em but credit to our front row. 3/Slipper 2/ Fainga'a 1/ Kepu
