Not sure Cooper would've put in the place kicking display that Carter did tonight. Aaron Smith was extremely poor tonight. Worst AB on the field.

The ball has hardly gone past the midfield.

Yeah I enjoyed that one. Moala was a real standout and a class above. Some good play from both sides. Loved that try saving strip on Visinia. Thought Eade played well as did Boys.

Are you have a whoooshka moment DP? My original post was a lighthearted comment that had a smiley icon after it. On the Wallabies halfback situation, Manu Samoa named their 31 man squad today and only had 2 halfbacks. There are 3 1st 5 options and they would be relying on one of them should a...

Should be an interesting game tonight. I like the loose trio for the Orcs. I like that young openside Blake Gibson that played for the U20s and for the Baabaas team vs the Maori.

Haha, funny how you've taken a lighthearted comment so seriously. I just find it funny that a number of posters seem to have worked out what is in Hansen's mind. I'll hand in my prefects badge only if you hand in your fun-police one.

I heard Hansen hasn't slept a wink since Saturday night.

Crockett isn't starting, Woody is. Whitelock is back in so the locks will pack tighter which will help us considerably.

I think Hansen was thinking that Chieka was thinking that he would be planning to combat the Hooper/Pocock combo, but Hansen has changed things up to now have Cheika thinking that this is because he has thought that. Make sense. No? Well nor does all the other second guessing on here :) I...

The forum would've exploded, along with Gnostic :)

Especially after he tried his luck at grabbing the first time and then having a second bite at the cherry.

3. Pocock 2. To'omua 1. AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) HM to Hooper who played a fantastic test off his feet.

Well done Wallabies. To'omua was excellent. Played far more positive when running the cutter than Foley. He takes the line on and plays flatter. In fact there was some really good impact off the bench. ABs were shocking. Too many forwards in the backline, dropped ball all over the show and...

Some very sloppy stuff from the ABs. Romano playing well though. If SBW had done that last hit...... :) Moore had a very poor half also

Thankfully the ABs don't have any lightweight flankers playing this time round....

I don't mind the Wallabies lineup. I think the balance of the pack looks a lot better. Mumm, Horwill and Fardy plus one of the hobbits should provide good lineout options. There's potentially more grunt at ruck time too. The big issue is 12/13 and whether that combination can click and provide...

Eh? You do know MHCS that Moala has already played for the All Blacks. In 2015.

It's good to know that Hansen and co are still reading my emails :) It's a good side with plenty of experience for when the Wallabies make their run. SBW is a key player in this side. If he can draw in the defenders then NMS and Savea will have something to work with.

Not sure who but I can think of a few that may have told their coach this - Gavin Hastings, Grant Fox.... :)

The Wallabies could all wear number 37 on their backs..... Sorry I couldn't resist :)
