Wasn't everyone singing their praises before the tour and even in Argentina? I haven't had a chance to catch Saturday's game, but even if one or both had an off game, I think you're being too critical.

How is this surprising at all? A guy being paid close to 7 figures who has all the time in the world to train 'tears it up' against amateurs who probably spend no more than 5 hours a week 'training'.

Dick Graham was the coach a couple years ago and just because he had an opinion on a selection matter didn't make it right. Thorn hasn't used all the back substitutes, so it's not that big of a deal to pick a rookie on the bench.

I agree with it being a fairly 'mainstream' view for a lot of Christians, but the most influential Christian leader has openly accepted members of the LGBTI community. As the 'mouth piece' of God, I'd dare say a lot of Christians, including Izzy need to revisit their learning's. In any event...

With how busy and frequent the Sevens guys play, when is it a good time for them to let their hair down? They played a competition a week or two before this piss up and two weeks prior to the next competition is plenty of time for recovery. Quite frankly I'm surprised you blokes didn't say...

Hanigan reminds me of Mumm; jack of all trades, master of none. He doesn't have the impact nor physicality at this stage to play 5/6 or come from the bench to cover those spots.

I never look forward to when these two teams play. It always turns into a slug fest and that 6-3 (or was it 9-6) when Johannsen nailed Larkham is always in the forefront of my mind.

Several of them playing for the Rebels and Brumbies aren't eligible to be picked by the Wallabies and the Waratahs haven't got a player in that position deserving of a spot (other than Hooper). Pretty much leaves the Reds back row vying for that 6/8 spot.

Izzy has 62 Wallaby caps meaning he's eligible under Giteau's law to play overseas and still be picked. Whether he plays in Kiwi land, Japan or even the UK, the ARU/Cheika can still pick him and not be hypocritical or open the flood gates. Bit of a moot argument to be frank.

Bloody hell, how can you even consider picking Higgers for the Wallabies when he hasn't even played a game yet?

Only player I thought who had a poor game was Nabuli. Maybe he doesn't use his feet in contact and just relies on his power and size to beat a man, but he never seems to live up to his hype. When Perese is fit, it'll be interesting to see who Thorn picks for the wings.

Weren't we debating in another thread if Benny Lucas was signed as a Halfback? Without Bjorn, I noticed Moses hasn't been moved to the 23, but Ben has been drafted in.

Perhaps Zero is Thron as Quade is 30 in 3 weeks so, better put him out to stud and not even consider picking him!

Surely there are more pressing and urgent matters that Whittaker should be concentrating on than 4 blokes 'stealing' Aussie jobs? The idea has it's merits, and the ARU still control who the Super Teams can sign. If they feel that awarding a foreign player a contract would be detrimental to an...

Geeez guys, finals talks after 2 wins! You guys are setting yourself up for some heartache with all that optimism.

At the same time, if you stifle the Argies they become even more hot headed and throw out their game plans. If the Reds are able to replicate the same discipline we've seen in the last 120 odd mins (since the last YC), then I'd back them into forcing the Argies to play in a style that goes...

Sounds like we could be in for a world of hurt again in June/July. The Darkness always seems to get the teams on the way down, while we're forced to deal with the 6 Nation champs!!

Everyone's rushing to get into a bar on Caxton Street before those crappy id scanners come online!

Even the SANZAAR Social Media interns are feeling the pressure: I guess it's technically true. A red team played a blue team.

Sigh of relief after that penalty. This game had draw written all over it.
