That performance was good considering, but Deans has finally started doing things that many subscribers here have suggested for quite a while, like using your bench earlier. Also Douglas's injury forced Timani to lock and brought Higgers on - a move that Deans should have used at the start of...

Touche, or is that TOCCe

That is if Michael Cheika is coaching the Waratahs in 1014 (nothing like a bit of mischievousness to stir up the Mexicans south of the border)

From some of the gibberish being put up in some of the threads in G & G, the last sentence could perhaps be changed to " Rugby supporters shot on sight?"

Fairly simple substitution in the backs if there is injury. If a winger or full back goes down, then AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) moves there and Ant takes his position. If Beale is down at flyhalf, then Barnes moves up & AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) moves back. If McNab down, then Ant again - no brainer. And yes, if a second back goes down...

I knew when I did the post that I'd lure a Fern Muncher with your type of reply - it was just too tempting a bait to ignore Guys You can do better than this FP

Don't forget Nucifora who is meant to be high performance manager. I mean isn't QC (Quade Cooper) complaining about performance?

If there is one good thing that should come out of all this, it is that all is not well in Wallabyland. The ARU are now approaching step 1: Become aware that you have a problem(s). Will they pursue correct procedure? Step 2: Appoint an independant committee to analyse the problem & Step 3...

It is taute he is a good rugby player, but nobody really knows. (Saffa's won't understand this).

Probably advised not to by the ARU & QRU, to minimize further damage such as all the posts here. I love my rugby, but seeing all the vilification in these posts is starting to turn me off forums - some of you on each side of the fence, get a life & move on. If I was a wallaby about to play a...

Great postings by Bowside (#522) and Scotty (#524). probably the best of this thread in regard to why QC (Quade Cooper) did what he did. I'm not saying whether it was right or wrong, but the above posts do give major reasons for his frustrations.

Such eloquence, you certainly have a way with words. And an encyclopedic memory to boot. But unfortunately your rantings would tempt any player to forego this code and change to league. In fact, why don't you go too? No loss.

If there are two gates available to you, and the one (ARU) you would prefer to go through is closed (contract renewal) and locked at the time, but the other gate is ajar, what do you do? You'd probably do what QC (Quade Cooper) is doing - kick, pull & push on the closed one for it to open. If it doesn't then...

Were not the Crusaders in the final, and how many of their players were rested at the working end of the Super 15 season - don't believe all the rabbiting you hear from Fern munchers

That Deans has allowed this situation to happen re QC (Quade Cooper) speaks very highly of his lack of man-management skills. That QC (Quade Cooper) gave vent to his frustrations is a poor decision on his part - he only needed to wait until the end of the year and the reason for his frustrations will in all probability no...

I couldn't agree more. He just needs more game time at 9 - some aspects of his play have been 'X factor'. The trouble is he'll progress to where he'll be nabbed by another side, particularly the Force.

@qwerty51 - I've read a few of your bitter posts in this thread and others over time about Quade Cooper - which suggests you have some personal problem with him. It occurred to me that you just might be Richie McCaw's pen name, but then it also occurs to me that McCaw is a rugby player which you...

Actually I really think we should use the whole Waratahs pack, if you think of Hooper as a Waratah from now on. I mean, wernt they fearsome at Super 15 level

I expect McCabe to come off within 40 minutes, either injured or buggered from lack of game time, or both, and Ant will take his place.

Any bets that Sanchez won't be lining up to play by mid February
