    Wallaby Watch 2014

    It would be great for the Wallabies if Douglas took the calling role at the Tahs. Carter takes it at the Brumbies and Jones at the Rebels. I would of said Higgers but he is best left at the front of the lineout where he is often disruptive on opposition ball. The next test becomes, how do...

    Wallaby Watch 2014

    In fairness to Wykes that was a tough gig. Best lineout operator in Matfield plus opposing a lineout with 4 blokes over 2 meters tall.

    Canes v Reds @ TheCakeTin

    Seems some people have gotten comfortable in their jobs.

    Wallaby Watch 2014

    Problem in Australia is a lack of lineout calling options. First it was rock shifting locks but now it has swung the other way. The blunt fact is that the Wallabies need an experienced lineout caller and it has to be one of the first attributes consider in Wallaby selections. Simmons walks...

    Reds 2014

    I never supported the way Woody was recruited. It was all very public service in my view. None the less, when he had the job it was only fair to see what he could bring before passing judgement. Not to mention having met the man in person, he was a really nice bloke. I didn't want to see him...

    Daley without doubt but why does the myth about Fainga'a's scrum work live on? The evidence just doesn't support it anymore.

    God no. Pick the bloke who they intend to use in the RC whoever he may be.

    Reds 2014

    If we are going to go for a new coach (which I am starting to think we should), there is one bloke we should be head hunting. He won't come cheap and I don't know when he is off contract but I think he is the bloke that can work wonders with the strengths within our cattle. That man in my view...

    Reds 2014

    All our back row players are class but the issue to me is they don't balance each other in combination. I don't think they are playing badly but they are just not playing with the attributes we are lacking. The entire Reds pack is formed with high workload grafters but we just need some...

    South Africa to reintroduce quotas

    I don't presume to have much of a knowledge on shanty towns in SA but if you want examples of the less than third world standards in Australia, there are many indigenous communities or outstations as they are often called across northern and central Australia. Let's get one thing straight, my...

    Super Rugby - I am bored

    Shit, the Suncorp security wouldn't even let us take in a packet of potato chips. Pre game entertainment next year is the competition as to who can smuggle the chips in.

    South Africa to reintroduce quotas

    Well that depends on what part of Australia you are from. Reverse racism does hurt. Put yourself in the shoes of the candidate who has put in the most effort to reach a goal, only to have that effort sidelined along ethnic lines. Think of how it effects that person. The person who has put...

    Rugby - not set pieces

    There is some fantastic stuff in super rugby happening at the moment, bring people together. The PI players and the after game prayer with players from both sides. Happened in the Brumbies game last night vs the Chiefs and it happened a couple of weeks back in the Reds vs Brumbies game...

    Brumbies v Chiefs Rd 11 2014

    Good win Brumbies. The ceremony before the game could have been better as it didn't look like a NZ flag present as well as the Australian flag at half mast. That would have been a little more respectful in my view personally.

    Reds 2014

    Regarding THP, we don't need PAE back. Just another development prop. Owen is hitting his stride and he is the one we need to be locking in now moving forward.

    Canes v Reds @ TheCakeTin

    Reds will need to make touch and force the Canes into facing our lineout which is an area we are probably stronger than them.

    Force V Bulls @ NIB, Rnd 11

    I notice last week the ref kept demanding that the Force pack higher. I think that was the problem because you do a fantastic job of getting low. It is a big strength for the Force.

    Canes v Reds @ TheCakeTin

    This could be a ripper of a game.

    Force V Bulls @ NIB, Rnd 11

    Serious question mate. Is there a town south of Perth called Argyle? Odd question I know but I had Lake Argyle in mind.

    Blues v Tahs, round 11 2014

    This is a banana skin game for the Tahs. The Blues are not going great but jeez they are capable of turning it around. Regarding Benji, he looks to have no self confidence to bight the bullet and just give it a crack. He was like the deer in the headlights last week when he had the chance to...
