He is a winger, but a right winger NOT a left winger. He's played his best rugby for Australia wearing 14. He was lost last night.

Gee we've lost some good forwards from that 2011 team in Vickerman, Pocock and Elsom, but our centres look infinitely better now in place of McCabe & Fainga'a.

McKenzie might select the most competent Aust Super rugby front (Brumbies) as his Wallaby front row. So would Sio be a 'McKenzie favourite' then, or is he selected on merit as part of his combination with the Brumbies front row? What if he selects Slipper as LHP, will you call him a 'McKenzie...

It is what it is. Maybe others might, but I don't see it as him having an attitude problem.

An apparent lack of drive and desire for team first, not a leader and not demonstrating the characteristics that the coach wants and needs in his captain.

Hang in there mate.

Slipper is really a LHP. He played THP for QLD because they had nobody else.

Slipper is a loosehead and only plays there for the Reds because Ewen had nobody else. His greatest value is his play around the field and loosehead leaves him with the energy to do that effectively.

All the cut out pass does is make the sideline the defending team's best friend

Our best chance will be to get in behind them

Interesting perspective, the Sth Africans have had those types in droves but still struggle against you.

I'm not a Kiwi but here goes; Sio - he's young, strong and relatively unknown as an opponent. They would rather play against a 'regular' Wallaby prop than him, even off the bench. A big straight running centre - The AB's were huge fans of Stirling Mortlock because of his size and ability to belt...

Put yourself in his shoes, he's starting his international head coaching role with games against the AB's, SA and Argentina. Don't you think he'll pick his best possible players for these games straight up?

Excellent appointment.

It all depends on the style that McKenzie wants to play. The Chiefs and Crusader teams will dominate the AB's team. In their weekend semi-final the body height, leg drive and aggression at the breakdown was awesome, from both forwards and backs in both teams. Both teams also showed great...

Excellent post qaz

A few thoughts above. The simple fact is that Sydney Uni have outgrown the Shute Shield and find themselves as 'tweeners'. They are without a competition befitting their level of professionalism to play in and are already frustrated by the seeming incompetence of rugby officials to create one...

Betty White and Boy George could run riot against Penrith's 2nds.

Watch the best counter attacking teams when they receive the ball from a kick. Their 1st instinct is always to pass the ball to centre field to start their counter attacking options.
