A sweet victory made even sweeter by the fact that I was sitting in a bar full of crusaders supporters. I almost felt bad for them at then end, almost... I never would have thought sitting in a quarter full lang park a few years ago watching the reds get belted that this day would come so...

When you can only take 30 players to a tourney you have to at least consider all your options.

I would have giteau or phibbs at 9, JOC (James O'Connor) at 12, Mumm and Mortlock nowhere near the team... And I think gerrard should get a run before shep, but its certainly debatable. I think you got the pack pretty much down-pat, slipper defiantly slides in if he is fit.

I'd be surprised if there was 8 thousand there. Pretty ordinary game, cripple fight in the end. Tah have really had a shocker with the injuries, but at the end of the day they did revert to the kick-it-away-cause-we-got-nothing-better-to-do game plan, and they didn't even execute that well...

Daley will get picked (in the squad) before palmer and longbum. I'm not saying I agree but I can defiantly see it happening. Fair game to Daley he does a hell of a lot of work around the paddock and his scrum is improving with age.

To'omua had the backline working better in his one game at 10 then it had been pretty much all season.

It shits me to tears every time the ground announcer tries (and fails) to start the 'we are red' chant. Whatever happened to red red red?

No one raps about the tahs......

I heard he once fought off a few blokes one night with his arm in a sling and a dislocated shoulder. Probably just a myth, but pretty damn impressive.

Doe's the tahs injury crisis have anything to do with all the 'bulking-up' they did in the pre season? Not an accusation, just a question. I am not an expert on the issue but i'm sure someone here is....

He's 28 years old, and is up against a swag of other good players for an AB jersey. So that might explain why he's looking at overseas options.

Last week in the force inside back's thread I suggested the force spend their money on a winger/fullback instead. http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/super-rugby/5164155/Perth-rebirth-touted-for-wing-Cory-Jane It seems the force recruiting team have been reading GAGR. :p

The honourable thing to do would be to let him play for tonga, and then give him a the marquee contract at the tahs next year after his stint in japan. That is of course if he wants to play for tonga. I think Samo, Wykes, Vickerman are ahead of him on the pecking order anyway.

Pat O'Connor. It was in the waratahs thread a couple of weeks back.

From what I've seen of Curtis Browning he plays more like a 6 or 8. I know its important to have your best players on the field, but how can aru expect to build depth in the second row if blokes who are clearly backrowers keep getting selected at 4 and 5.

He's already off to france.

The camera man certainly found some lookers in crowd. Australia's execution was woeful.

Fair enough, but can you name another Australian lock who could make the step up? In any case, Rebels likely dont have the money for 3m, especially if they get elsom. But if they got both of them that pack starts to look every bit as good as the backline.

I thought he played too shorter advantage period and seemed like he was getting in the way of play a lot. A decent performance nonetheless, but he's no mark Lawrence.
