And a Morahan.

Not enough Reds.

Don't disagree, fp. Just think it's a bit of a stretch to say he had a very good first half is all.

He was good for the first 20 minutes, was flailing after that though.

Not convinced. The team is still wildly inconsistent, loses games it should win, concedes too many early points and regularly gets beaten up at the breakdown. I think he's done well in bringing Pyle, Jones and Neville along - but some of his selections are just weird (Phipps.) Basically I think...

The only thing Alan Jones needs to do is retire.

You know what this Wallaby team needs? More Luke Jones.

Look at the state of him, absolutely disgraceful. Needs to have some playing-weight clause in his contract. How does expect to be good at rugby when he looks like a dumpling?

Unlike Hooper and Bieber who play at least 10kg above.

Absolute fucking morons. So over this sort of thing.

Unfit I'd say. The whole team looked a step behind the All Blacks really, there's a reason we're losing the collisions almost every single time. Whoever is running the strength and conditioning side of things is not doing a good enough job right now.

He was good for the first 15-20 I thought, faded badly after that.

His play for the Rebels. He's big, but makes McCabe and Horne look dynamic.

Inman is not the solution and shouldn't be considered an option - he's a plodder.

Fair enough, just seems a bit disingenuous to say don't take a punt at test level when you want to play a guy at scrumhalf who hasn't played there at provincial level for three years now. I don't entirely disagree about the need for utility value if we're going to run a 5-2 split, but the one...

When was the last time Lucas played scrumhalf at Supe level?

Don't rate Phipps at all. Runs around the field at a million miles an hour doing absolutely nothing. Inconsistent passing, blindingly predictable running game. Third best scrumhalf at the Rebels, let alone the second best in Australia. White is clearly the second best at the moment, but given...

I'm guessing Deans has decided they're superfluous to requirements. Alternatively they're all going to be used heavily during TRC and he's decided to give them a couple of weeks rest. Could be anything really.

Inman is very lucky to get picked IMO, it really shows the lack of depth we have in the centres. For a bloke his size, he goes missing way too often to be seriously considered as Test material.

I know I've been saying it all year, but Stirzaker really is miles better than Phipps in pretty much every single facet of the game.
