He looks quick. Sefa was lightning last year. Tomane looked like he was running in fast forward v the Reds. Morahan's top end speed is pretty hard to beat as well. Toua also looked express. I reckon they're probably the top 5 in Oz Rugby

I'm at ground zero. 10 hours till kick off. 1 hour till pre-pre game drinks and activities. Wallaby jersey, scarf and beanie on. You can feel the excitement and anticipation in the air over here. No one knows how the game will go. Poms are scared shitless of our back row.... every paper has had...

The mail I have received has Genia starting at halfback and the rest of the 23 pretty much what has been floated around here in relation to the "bib theory"

10/12. Nothing else. Look at how well he is controlling the game for the Rams at the moment. He is leading and holding that team together. Surely even Foley, in his infinite stupidity and lack of any rugby nous outside the forward pack, can see that. The Force could finally have a well rounded...

Yeah the Orange shirts look to be the 1sts team. The footage and pictures I saw had Horne in orange and Mitchell in yellow unfortunately.

Agreed. Out of the two I was thinking Greene would be a much better option at 15. His kicking, speed and running with ball in hand are all superior to McIntyre.

Just watched the replay as well. It was a thoroughly entertaining game with some strong set piece action and great attacking rugby and structure. QCountry are unlucky not to have a win yet. Had Junior not scored that runaway it would have been a cracking finish with the ability Greene has to...

That's pretty rubbish mate. The guy has given his all to Australian rugby. Mind you, I'd be filthy if I was the best performed Lock in the international tests and didn't even make the squad. Think you'll find he is conveniently heading over to England early.

I agree. However IMO it will be a huge shame/waste for both The Force and Lance if Grant starts over Jono.

Lance is a Five Eighth / 2nd Five Eighth. I hope they don't do what the Reds did and waste him at Fullback.... although he did fill the roll admirably defending at 10 and attacking at 15. For me it's pretty clear what the back line should look like with the current roster: 9. Matthewson 10...

Hanson and Carter flew out after Carter's NRC game. There is talk of Moore being rested. Not sure why Carter is going.... you'd think they'd want to give as much game time as they can to that 2nd row group.

Cheers Hugh

Someone has probably already asked this somewhere however I'm wondering if they have the game available to watch on replay? Struggling to watch them live.

I just watched the game, a few thoughts(watching with more emphasis on QC (Quade Cooper)): A bit of chat about Duncan... I thought his mistakes outweighed the good he did. Some poor passing/handling however his defence stood out as very average. Also had some nice touches. I think he has talent and will make...

Those fringe players, who haven't seen much RC time and are likely to be in the RWC squad, have been told they must play NRC.

QRU said they don't want him. Don't even want him training at Ballymore. Rebels have already sorted their squad so it looks like he will end up with one of the NSW teams.... I think it's a matter of who has room in their squad. Handy pick-up for one of them.

Well this thread has gone off since the start of the game yesterday, I haven't been through all the pages but thought I'd add my thoughts. Aus played quite well, New Zealand not so much. I'm still unsure if it was down to our pressure or if they just had an off night. Australia Positives: -...

Mitchell's defense has been very good however I suspect they'll put AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) into 10/12 before Drew. Mainly because Drew has the best kick out of that backline so you'd think he will stay back and return serve. Also were the Wobs not playing Hooper in the back line off line outs? AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)/Hooper in the...

Just read that Anae has signed for the Brums.... hope they can get the best out of him. A real powerhouse. Should be starting to come into his peak around about now.

Only 3 points off having a team in every mens & colts Grand Final, that would have been an incredible achievement. The boys were devastated last night (both Prems and Reggies). Poor Sham will never give away a penalty like that again, the big kid is only 17 (possibly recently 18).... he will...
