Concussion is more of a momentum issue than anything, caps do little-to-nothing. Even full-blown helmets can fail at preventing concussion pretty easily.

Oh don't worry mate, I've been pitching a tent since dinner.

Jake's front-pod jumping was the primary asset that kept him in the starting side last season. If Thompson can replicate that role (and by god does he has the right body type to be a force in the air - light enough to get up quickly too) I can see him knocking Jake down to the bench. Simmons...

Yeah, because he already has by being the form Australian winger in Super Rugby over 2-3 seasons - consistently.

Uh, you watched Super Rugby the past few years - right? Speight has earned his spot as much as any winger that's played for the Wallabies. Yeah he's been injured, but I can't even remember Speight having a distinct slump in form over the past few seasons. He's been a monster for the Brumbies...

Nigel, you could have at least bought us dinner first

Reign it in

He had at least one good touch earlier on in the match :D

WHAT THE HELL

It's a strategy they have thoroughly tested over here.

RE: the stats - I think some groups record meters based on from where the player caught the ball, while others record meters made over the gain line. At least, that seemed to be the case when I used to dig through a couple different databases. If more of the stats houses provided concrete...

Kerevi doesn't need to be a great distributor if we are looking at playing Taps/Hunt at 12. He's alright as it is but I don't think CFS is much better in that department. If we're going the second-five route I'm more concerned about the ability of the 13 to dominate contact on the second or...

He should have been counting his blessings that the axe was all he got after that Lions series. Excited to grab a copy of this book and give it a thorough read, always wanted a gateway into the mind of one Robbie Deans.

Kerevi did more in 2 games of Super Rugby last year than CFS managed in the previous 2 years of Super Rugby. Kerevi all the way, full-stop, absolutely no question.

How about we let Pocock play an hour of rugby this decade before we pencil him in over, well, anyone. The leaves Hooper in front of him for 7. Unless one of Hodgo or Gill has the season of a lifetime (in either direction) Gilly is at least just as likely as Hodgo to get the nod for the RWC...

Gill would be off his rocker to look overseas unless he has an absolutely abysmal season this year.

Nah Delon's always been a fluffybunny of shocking magnitude

There better be fucking locker room beatings after that Lambie try. That's just unacceptable.

Hopefully they can keep it together after the Wobs smash the Welsh for the 60th time in a row next year.
