What happened to Meyer forcing the players to rest, get injured and chicken run? The world was ending 3 pages ago.

Cheika is a genius. That's the sort of team you can get excited about. We haven't had one of those since 2011.

Wow, that was brave of them to link their rugby team and the word "Force". Normally those two words together have negative connotations.

Nah, I'd say in this scenario the egg came well before the chicken. The success brought them opportunities to maximise their brand, not the other way round.

I assume Ndungane is injured too? Otherwise he'd be on a wing and Le Roux to 15.

Cat Killer for a reason. A bastardised Kickbot2000 if you will. de Allende seems like a bastardised version of the modern 12. He doesn't distribute like JDV and he doesn't have the power game of a Nonu type player. He seems to die with the ball a lot too. I assume he's trying to be the Nonu...

Sorry, had to go all Paarlbok on you there and throw out a wild speculator. My thoughts are Matfield may be the best line out operator in the world but he has no place in the starting team of the Boks in 2015. To slow and not dynamic enough in the loose. Pienaar isn't a great partner for...

As I understand it the ARU have to pay a match fee to the players (Rugby Union Players Association have demanded the full $10k match fee per player) and if 8000 people turn up ARU are out a shit load of money. Apparently RUPA are now open to seeing a reduced match fee for Australia A games...

Wallabies by 50.

If you're gonna chuck each player on the scrap heap for one poor game, the average number of caps per side would fall to 5.

It's unthinkable that Foley won't start at 10 for this first test. While I'd prefer it was Cooper to take us into the RWC, he really needs to get some more game time before starting a test.

Maori v Fiji game on Fox in 45mins Not sure if it was on earlier.

Not at all. TDF on a rest night leaving only AFL. Makes me miss the Rugby.

Can't make Blood and Bone without blood.

Fuck, how good is Giteau on the Rugby Club! Mature, sharp, honest. He's a great addition to the squad

Or the Reds or Douglas himself to buy it out. Doesn't necessarily have to be the ARU.

Don't forget to set your IQ's lads. 12pm EST tomorrow.

You won't win it with him (but you'll still go closer than us).

And then try and put it together with images, but the images have to be sourced from the correct site, be the correct size, be uploaded to the correct location to display properly. It's not a 15 minute job to write some copy in a word doc and slap it up. But it seems Gaulmay is intent on...

As good for Australian rugby as it is for the Reds. I'd be pretty happy if I was a Reds supporter, I don't rate Neville much.
