So you were all upset about Eddie saying players earned their selections, yet want to disregard Carter Gordon being the best Aussie 10 in Super Rugby by a country mile while playing with a pretty average Rebels team If he’s already “as good as Quade Cooper” as you say after only 4 tests, why...

Have you watched any Carter Gordon this year?

Yes he’s better than Quade Cooper right now. He had a great Super season and has been the better 10 for the Wallabies this year

No I didn’t, I just responded to someone else saying they heard that. Hence the word if

Not assuming anything as true, I’m just saying if Quade Cooper did refuse to be an extra or play for Australia A it would be an extremely poor attitude to have

The reason these other teams have depth at 10 is because they developed their young guys through the tough moments. Every single one of them had struggles at test level to begin with, but their coaches stick by them and developed them into class players Us on the other hand used a young guy...

This is nonsensical, but let me attempt Eddie only got the job in the first place because we had a winning record of 36% since the 2019 World Cup. To act as if he could just turn the least successful Wallabies ever into winning a Bledisloe in 2 games is just silly I have no hatred toward...

Yes I too was shocked that Blake Schoupp was picked as the backup 10 over Quade

What are we arguing about again?

If that’s the case, I wouldn’t want him anywhere near Carter Gordon

If Hooper and Cooper have indeed refused to play for Australia A as they think they are too good for it, that may just point to why their “leadership” wasn’t wanted in the squad

He also lost to Samoa

He did indeed create this by developing a grand total of zero halfbacks, zero first fives and zero fullbacks He had 3/4 of a World Cup cycle, and instead of developing younger players, he was scouting Japanese rugby for the next mid 30’s guy he could beg to come back

You’re allowed to feel however you want And I don’t agree with every selection Eddie has made, like all coaches he has his blind spots and bias in regards to certain players but I really like the backing of the young guys in this instance. We have watched the experienced guys for years play...

I wonder why that scrum was called

Considering I disagree with the majority of players you mentioned there’s not going to be much middle ground for us to find

Gee with that many good players they must have been a force in super rugby

We have sucked for the last 20 years, hardly think an extra 2 scares anyone here

Yes, social media is world famous for it's well thought out and reasonable opinions on things Donaldson played in none of the 4 losses and Suli played in 1 so what your point is exactly I'm buggered if I know

Because he likes them and no one else in their positions made themselves un-droppable
