Except for Ireland...

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but from memory... The governance structure outlined in RA's constitution gives NSW and Qld main voting rights.

That's a tad disingenuous... But they... They being the governing bodies of as you so accurately describe, those insular clubs... Have certainly have had a strong hand in preventing Australian rugby from strengthening its professional pathways.

The fact is, if those involved in ACT rugby can set aside their grumblings and get behind the Vikings logo and colours to represent Canberra so their players can push their case for higher representation, then maybe... Just maybe... The NSWRU and Shute Shield need to just grow the fuck up?

This... Despite his mare against Argentina, he's still a better wing/fullback option than a few of those in the squad. But Jones might now see Kellaway and Petaia as his fullbacks going forward.

I would assume Doran leaks this afternoon ahead of the announcement tomorrow morning...

I actually thought the thing Eddie would've appreciated more than the tackle count about Hooper, particularly in the first half, was his cleanout work at the rucks when we had the ball... I'm not sure what number he wears going forward, but rather than hanging out wide I think he needs to...

But ultimately was easily dismantled by the AB's pack...

That does seem to be an exception to the norm, particularly with about 5 other forwards making 20+ tackles that game, and several others coming close…

Has Gleeson ever reached double digits for tackles attempted in a Super Rugby match?

Did you take a survey of all 70 or so Wallabies players from last year?
