Styles did a good job with the Force forwards. I think he can do the same with the Reds forwards.

Both are playing fairly conservative. Problem for Quade is it isn't his natural style, not that he can't play it. 10 isn't the issue for the Wallabies ATM so it is hard to judge them both.

Mowen is playing the system. Nothing wrong in him doing that. He isn't getting any younger and this is his living don't forget.

What happened to Ita Vaea. He has fallen way off the radar. Injury?

3/ Cooper 2/ Moore 1/ Lilo

In the AB's vs Argies pre game show, the T-bone given to TJ looked absolutely sensational. Argentina is now on my bucket list. Should the Argies and the Saffers ever face off in a meat cooking contest, I would like to offer my services as a judge.

Dell has got to take full responsibility for his actions (not just talk about it) and that doesn't include a blindsided shot at his former employer. What gets up my nose in this thread and the public in general is the linking of Quade Cooper to Beale and O'Connor. There is now a big point of...

I would be happy for the Wallabies to try this. Folau back onto the wing and Tomane dropped. Lilo to shift back to 15 and To'omua to shift into 12.

I hope this doesn't create bad feeling in the organisation. If so, can the Brumbies opt for Bernie and Laurie to be made Wallaby forwards coach in the interests of harmony. :) Regarding Jake's decision, I can understand people being disappointed but he doesn't strike me as being less than...

Slipper is our TH option. I don't want Alexander sent home. He is our LH bench option for the next test in my view.

Yep, the excuses are embarising. I think many Wallaby fans will feel that way. Plenty of areas the Wallabies need massive improvement but I just can't help but liking the way the Bokke are playing and it's good, smart rugby. Van de Merve was a goose for the leading elbow but it was a carbon...

Size isn't his issue. his technique stinks. Little men should be running with their center of gravity low to the ground. This is why he was so effective last year. he seems to have lost that. The lineout before half time was a classic example. Clever move stuffed up by poor body height in...

To hell with it. Give CFS a start on the wing. Let's see what he's got. Put AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) on the other wing and give Kuindrani a shot at the 13. I don't care for bullshit inexperience talk because there is only one way you can get experience. We have nothing to lose by trying it and should we hit the...

Can't agree. Ships is a solid defender. Very combative in contact also.

I know you have compared McDurling to him in the past Lee. I know little about him but hope he can stay fit so I can get a look. As for shorter tough guy lock in Australia, I think of Mark Connors in his day. (I know Eales normally packed the TH side though.) The Lock in Australia I see...

I wouldn't mind seeing Shipperly converted to a 13. He has the required attributes. Do it now why he is young.

The first thing Australia needs to do is get over this rubbish obsession with size. This obsession has made us lazy in regards to technique. The Brumbies though are on the money with this. They took weight off Mowen and he hasn't looked back compared to the bulk up regime he played under at...

Not saying your comment is right or wrong but do you care to expand on that?

I agree with you 100% Dan. But when the decision had to be made regarding the second yellow, I think the ref should have just awarded the penalty knowing the implications of the second yellow. What made this ref especially arrogant in my view was he was clearly hold by the TMO regarding the...

That was more like the Drew Mitchell red card in Melbourne 2010 Hugh. Rubbish yellow dished out in the first instance.
