I like the look of the team above, but I'd have a slightly different bench.

I could see the Brumbies front row being the Australian front row. It's seems so ridiculous in hindsight that Ma'afu has 10 wallaby caps. Liked the look of the Number 8, papers during the week said he was pretty much australia's lowest paid professional footballer. Hope he gets on for enough...

I think the reds played a lot better when Horwill moved to the second row. Higgers should have started in this game due to his speed around the park, I would have started Robinson or maybe Gill as well and the reds badly needed that x-factor at the breakdown to pilfer some more ball. Maybe this...

Say What?

Next weeks backline? 9. kingi 10. cips 11. Du Plesis 12. Vuna 13. Mortlock 14. Betham/Gerrard (if hes back) 15. Huxley yeah or nah?

Fair point. Based on the way they played last night they would'nt have beaten the All Blacks, however they would have given them a run for their money. Do I think they can win the world cup? No. Do I think they could knock out us or the springboks? Quite possibly.

On their day France, Ireland and England can more than match it with any SH team. They may not have a freak athletes ala Beale, Ioane and Cooper, but they make up for with guys like Jamie Heaslip and Imanol Harinordoquy, both of whom would walk into our starting team. And im not even going to...

France v Ireland was the best game of rugby I have watched in a long time.

If your still planing on hitting the piss, make sure you keep one eye over your shoulder as the security at suncorp were cracking down on under-age drinking at the reds games last year.

Its only gay if the balls touch.

He's had some really shithouse hair cuts as well.

Also need to consider when you lose players of the calibre you mention it can force a team to change their game plan significantly. Australia play a different game with a barnes/burgess halves combo as opposed to a cooper/genia combo. Likewise if the bokke lost Matfield and Botha they might not...

Could Moore be in line for the captaincy role post RWC? Australia could certainly do worse.....

This topic is often bought up on sites like the roar. Lots of different ideas have been suggested in regards to super rugby expansion. At the moment I think the most likely outcome will be a s18 with the kings, a central nz team, and a combined pacific island team playing in the Aus conference...

I have HD foxtel, but i hardly ever watch anything on fox sports hd channel. It shows the same programing as the SD channel and most of the time I just forget I even have it. In terms of rugby, fox sports will get you all super rugby, tests, itm cup, currie cup as well as a weekly rugby show...

This isnt always true. The queensland U16 team's often contain blokes that have come out of club rugby and do not attend a recognized rugby school. But in saying that, by the time the tournaments over many of them will have been offered a scholarship to a GPS school...

I'm not too worried mate, surely a club like Toulouse wouldn't waste their money on a halfback who can't pass.

Patrick Lambie or Elton Janties?

Burgess is rumoured to be off to Toulouse after the world cup. Bringing in Hart might not be such a bad idea...

Looks like the squads haven't been updated since the start of last season?
