Will there be only 31 players announced? My guess would be:- Props Slipper Sio Kepu Alexander Robinson Longbottom Hookers Moore TPN Charles Locks Horwill Simmons Jones Skelton Backrow Hooper Fardy Palu Higgers McCalman Cottrel Halfbacks Genia White Flyhalf/Centre Cooper To'omua...

I think the time off between scrums is a great rule that should be implemented. I miss watching games as a kid that had injury time, because you dont get enough rugby in todays games. Not sure what the stats are but I would have thought scrums take up an average of at least 10 minutes of play...

I would be gobsmacked if Link isn't already considering who his line-out callers will be heading into the world cup. I'm not sure who he is considering as back-up caller but he definitely has one in mind. I suspect that it was to be Mowen, but I also get the feeling that Mowen's departure...

Newlands is a tough place to win, even this season.

Just read an article in relation to Kepu trying to regain his starting test spot. supposedly Chieka dropped him because his passing and catching game was not good enough; Kepu talks about trying to find some good form and the fact that on the EOYT last year his real focus was on his scrummaging...

Probably Higgers. It would certainly make him a more attractive backrow prospect than he currently is.

From my point of view a Richard Graham's resignation / sacking is now unavoidable. From the players' point of view there needs to be a change in team management and from the fans' point of view the club needs something to help build belief and interest in 2015. I'm not interested in seeing...

Yeh I'm not sold on Horwill

My 23 1.Slipper 2.Moore 3.Alexander (not convinced. only until Kepu finds some form.) 4.Horwill 5.Simmons 6.Fardy 7.Hooper (captain) 8.Palu 9.Genia 10.Cooper 11.Cummins 12.To'omua 13. Kuridrani 14.AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) 15.Folau 16.Sio 17.TPN 18.Kepu 19. Skelton (i'd like to see how he goes over the next 3...

Fardy will be at 6. So you you can easily move Fardy to the 2nd row if need be.

Competition between White and Genia is pretty close atm. Genia will get the nod but I could see White getting a few starts this season. I watched the Force game last night... Hodgson is playing right on the boundaries of the laws at the moment. Made a real nuissance of himself last night...

Cooper did some good stuff today, but he was trying to make something out of nothing because the blokes outside him were pretty dreadful. Cooper wont have the same issues playing for wallabies with the likes of Folau, To'omua, AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) etc outside him. His passing game is still better than the other...

on current form yes... although we know Genia has the ability to reach another gear at test level. White's yet to prove that

given the conditions you cant criticise the tactics. The second half was a good contest between two close sides

good win for the brumbies. the second half was quite tense.

yes totally. Kearns: its games like this that make me think there should be a kick quota...each team gets 20 kicks and that's it haha classic.

Blue im finding this an intriguing arm wrestle... although i have had a few scotches

Brumbies scrum started off shaky but theyre getting the upper hand now.

Stop trying to cover up the truth IIWII!!

The most interesting thing from the Jake White interview was his comments when asked about getting players to commit. He posed a hypothetical, basically saying that if "for example" Ben Mowen came to me and said that Ewen McKenzie had told him that he didn't have him in mind for a spot in the...
