I wonder if Ben Robinson plays more than 25 minutes this game

Anyone out there know the Zulu translation for 'lower than a snake's arsehole'? Seriously

possibly it was the wine talking, but watching the Foxtel summation after the game on Saturday night, I thought they said that Barnes would not be a starter against the Argos' as he received an injury. Any update on that?

I think Barnes is carrying an injury as well.

(yawn)

I watched Samo in the club game for Jeeps against Wests at Ashgrove on Saturday. He was so much more fitter than in his previous club games. He was there until the last 15 minutes and was massive at that club level - he totally ran through some defenders like they wern't there.

thanks Tooms

I can't see the bok team selection on this thread - has someone got it please

I think Harris is there as a threat to replace Barnes if he plays like he has in the last two tests. You know - the big hook if you use the big boot.

You must be a prop Braveheart, bull headed & can't take advice ;)

Perthfontein? Has a nice ring to it. Lets get Gillard to change the name

The coaching team is placing a lot of emphasis on attack for this game. I see AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) brought in at outside centre to play Mortlock's style of running - straight up & hard to make the line bust. It would not surprise me to see QC (Quade Cooper) passing a fast ball to him leaving out Barnes. This tactic will be...

There was a boy at school who was expelled. On leaving, he went to see the school chaplain, and said to him, "I'm sorry I failed, sir". The chaplain, upon reflection, replies, "No Bill, I'm sorry the school failed you". Would the chaplain have said the same thing to Robbie Deans vis-a-vis the ARU?

Are ewe sure it was a donkey? (Damn, the man with the scissors beat me to it)

Well this is QC (Quade Cooper)'s opportunity to shut up his detractors, especially on G & G where 80% plus of the subscribers are ex-Kiwis. whose vitriol knows no bounds when it comes to crying over QC (Quade Cooper)'s shocking treatment of rugby's lord & master - McCaw. This is rugby - get over it & move on. The AB's will...

Sounds like the Waratahs

We all make mistakes, 2040, that's 1 out of 3 . You know what happens when you reach 3.

The only general consensus I can see here regarding props is that Ben Alexander can't keep his end up. And he can't prop as well lol.

Just for once you're right DPK. Cooper's defence has improved considerably since 2011. He has worked on it hard during his rehab, and has shown it by two try saving tackles in the game against the Waratahs. So he shouldn't be put down for that reason. No one is knocking Barnes'defence, but his...

With the oncoming internationals and the wallabies in training camp, who should be selected for the no. 10 position which is so important to the structure of the game. There was criticism of the way Cooper played in the world cup, but was that in part due to the rigid structure set up by Deans...
