Spent a lot of time watching conversions and preparing to receive kick offs. Did it pretty well too. What, should he have been showing his rock paper scissors tatt to the crowd?

Oh I didn't say they were right or that I agreed with them. Though to give spikhaza his due as a seer, the pack is pretty much on the money, incuding Pocock, and Genia/Cooper too. Genia had a good game, and Cooper (as the Rock said post-game) played his part in controlling the second half. That...

We'll have ample opportunity to compare the size of our ...... scrums in the local conference of the super 15.

I thought these were just as valid, for all that they were made Nostradamus-style :fishing:

They were solid. Yet if we had kicked our penalties and someone had made some attempt to tackle Ashton, we would have been there or thereabouts. One of the differences between these wallabies and the all blacks or other champion teams is that the latter play through the tough passages where...

3. AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) 2. Barnes 1. Genia Pack went great, deserved points. Scrum? Whats a scrum?

Yeah. I would go so far as to day I don't care that much about the result, in view of the challenging conditions, but I would like to see some composure/competition in all facets of the game. If we lose by 12 but we see a scrum that stands up, a solid lineout, competitive aggression at the...

Yeesh that ball to Mitchell was a dog, That's one of the reasons I'm ambivalent about seeing him there ... Don't get me wrong, I've been a Barnes Booster since he was a Bronco, but this tour has not been an opportunity taken. Not that deans has given him a lot of opportunity. He has been at...

If only there was a guy in the squad who'd played at 12 all year alongside Cooper. . . . :-\ I'm starting to wonder what position gits will ever find, and barnes wasn't a great 12 next to Cooper.

I think there's a glitch in the matrix. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqLY96_zezc

One technique is to grow your hair long, never wash it and breed lice, mushrooms and fleas in it. Unfortunately Martin Castrogiovanni beat Slipper to it.

Argh! Realism! It burns! It burns!

I wonder if the Daley/Fainga'a/Slipper tripod and scrum will look better under Link than Deans/Noriega. Maybe coaching can make a difference - though the nihilist in me struggles to explain how......

Anthony Fainga'a. Pick of the Super 14 12s. Are we there yet? ;)

Not much tour left. Neither was going to appear. Feeding Ma'afu would be pretty expensive.

I see this as a mixed blessing. But his goal kicking is pretty important to our bottom line.

I predict (and hope, for both our sakes) that we see less of Drew Mitchell's arse-tat. Wonder how Genia is going.

I'd back JOC (James O'Connor) and Mitchell to miss those tackles 9 times out of ten. But Cooper would have been all over him like a school girl in a slapfest.

True, and will be better for another super season.

3 minutes at the death in Melbourne. Literally. 9 minutes on the veldt. 2 minutes in Sydney. I'm not very perceptive, and didn't draw much from those appearances.
