Les Bleus

Could've sworn you said Italy initially, but sneakily edited your post ;)

Aaand with that interception, all the momentum looks to be with Italy heading into the final 10 minutes.

Jiffy running his mouth as per usual in the commentary box lol, in regards to the penalty awarded by Francisco Pastrana. Some things never change.

Can't be much fun for Tomasi Allen with Dr. Jaw running down his channel

Just tuned in on the 38th minute, following the Wales try. 15-3 at half time, with Italy not capitalising on their possession and territory with more points.

If this idea gains traction, start up a Kickstarter, and have perks, like @WorkingClassRugger said, for $10, $20, $50, up to larger amounts for people and groups who might want to buy one week of jersey advertising for their club, company, or charity. Any ideas on whose jersey would be chosen...

Uncharacteristic call by Gatland to bench Sam. Also, has Scott Williams got any experience playing at 13? The Scarlets games I've seen in patches recently, he has only featured at 12.

Calling it now: Sharks to top the SA conference, with the Stormers to push for one of the 3 qualifying final spots. Expecting the Cheetahs to be figured out by the rest of the comp this season (and not do as well as in 2013, but figure there or thereabouts in the top 8), and the Bulls squad...

I hope I'm not too late to the fantasy rugby draft party. Is the G&GR league full?

A bit of an oversight on my part to forget about Hooper, but in World Cups, I think it's pretty rare to see a backup 7 on the bench, especially with Pocock being an 80 minute player.

Geez, Cullen was just playing in that Heineken Cup match in Swansea on the weekend wasn't he? He's taking over as forwards coach in light of Jono Gibbes departure to Clermont I think I heard from some commentators

Having just read Scott Allen's article on another site about Wallabies bolters, I thought I might partake in this exercise, even though we are still a year and a half out from the RWC. For the 30/31 man Wallabies squad, the players I would consider 'optimal' would include: Forwards: Slipper...

My opinion of JOC (James O'Connor) just worsens as time goes on. The gumption of the bloke to just expect to slip back into the Wallabies, and slip out to take the big bucks in France is not in the ARU's interest at all. Of all the talk of division and team harmony between the senior Wallabies and trouble...

Our tighthead issue is solved: Kieran Longbottom, Tetera Faulkner and Salesi Manu for the Wallabies

How do you think Scotland will fare in this year's Six Nations, Highlander? The pack looks decent and what you would expect from Scotland, but from last year, the backline looks improved (especially with the Lions Maitland and Hogg). In any case, it will be interesting to see how Scotland will...

I can't recall exactly whether an article about Woodward was posted in this thread, or if I read it in the SMH, but I think the article implied that he and his wife were well settled, and had made Melbourne home. And that he would therefore make himself eligible for the Wallabies. Edit

As overrated as Henry Speight is on these forums, when he hasn't played a single test, yet the 14 Wallabies jersey has his name on it.........

Imagine a Chiefs midfield of SBW and Fruen vs a Blues midfield of Nonu/Saili and Piutau/Saili!

That, and a fit Jamie Roberts and Jiffy Jr centre pairing which cut us to shreds
