3. McCalman 2. Beale 1. Pocock - Even when his strengths are reffed out of the game he still makes a difference.

It doesn't help that we have players like Rodney Blake, Mark Gerrard, Hugh McMeniman, Daniel Heenan & Dan Vickerman all overseas, with our small player pool we need to be hanging on to as much talent as possible. I also think Phil Waugh still has a place in the Wallaby squad he would be very...

I agree that Burgess is a better hitter than Genia but both are very good defenders, Genia is the better all round halfback but I do want to see Burgess on for the last 30 minutes along with Berrick Barnes. Dean should really clean out the bench for the last 20 minutes.

It's a tough call as we know the AB's will just infringe once we get inside the 22 but on the other hand the Wallabies have been guilty of trying to score off every phase instead of building the phases & being patient. Lets hope that the ref plays long advantages for the attacking team.

AB's v Wobs at Twickers would sell out as there are stacks of Aussies & Kiwis in London plus all the Poms would go in hope of the Aussies getting done.

Ranger is hard one to pick I personally think he's a bit of a front runner someone who can go missing when the chips are down, on the flip side if he comes off the bench & his 1st touch is a good one then we could be in for a long night. I know Quade is also an enigma but he seems to have...

They didn't bomb the try. They just scored it about 5 phases later when Moore crashed over.

I think Deans will take care of the backs & skills coaching & leave all the kicking duties to BVS. We all know how tight the ARU have become so I can't see them spending money on BVS & another coach.

Turner or Hynes for me I like Mccabe but he can wait for the Spring Tour, Hynes is the safe bet but Turner being left out usually sparks a player for a big game so I'd be happy with either.

Agreed, No need to rush them back or TPN either. We've developed plenty of youth during the Tri-nations lets give them more experience in NH & start fresh in 2011.

I like the Pommie refs I think they're pretty relaxed & don't feel they need to stamp their authority on the players, Barnes is similar to Chris White & he's my favorite ref of all time. I like Barnes I feel he hit his peak in 2007 & has never looked back.

Like the rest of the backs he was brilliant in the 1st half, got a knock in the 2nd half but still a class act.

Probably a good thing that we didn't go on and put 70 on the Boks as we would have lost in Sydney for sure, last nights game will still keep the young Wallabies grounded as they know they almost snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Massive ask for the Wobs coming back from SA & having...

Agreed. I can't remember the last time our backline was so slick. Quade's pass to put AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) on the outside of JDV for the 1st try was wicked & then the set piece were Drew Mitchell come on the inside of Gits was surgical.

3. David Pocock Unlike most of the backs he stayed focus for the full 80 minutes just keeps performing week in week out, dominated the ruck area. 2. Stephen Moore Had a blinder plenty of solid hits & hard yards over the adv line. 1.AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) His defence was 1st class stopped the Boks momentum...

mmmmm Donuts, sorry just had a Homer Simpson drooling moment. He truly has the best job in the world so you would think he would at least know a little bit more about some of the up & coming Wallabies in waiting. Anyway this is my Wallaby match day 22 assuming every player is fit & on top of...

He also over ran a JOC (James O'Connor) pass out wide, it's annoying that AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) had a shocker considering that never happens & the players that run hot & cold (Castrol players) all ran pretty hot last week.

Add Bismarc Du Plessis also. Jeremey Paul is a goose I think most people on the board agree, I think Graham & Williams should be given the flick though. It would be crazy to sack Deans now but the other two can be replaced but by who is the big question?

I'd play 4. Tom Hockings 5.Nathan Sharpe 6.Hodgson 7.Pocock 8.McCalman. Play Brown off the bench & start Hockings, Hockings is genuine lock & has shown that he is a very good player who back in 2008 looked like test material even out playing Sharpe. Don't know why Mitchell went cold on...

I couldn't move Beale ATM he's been our best back the last two tests & I'd be happy for Beale to remain at 15 while his purple patch continues. I think Deans should keep AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) at 13 even when Chambers, Horne & Digby are fit & get rid of JOC (James O'Connor) & Giteau. Would be happy to see Fainga'a or even...
