Barnes has to start this game. Let him stake his claim for the starting jersey. Gits has had his turn and should play against munster to find some form. Also I'm banking on a 5:2 split (Gits 21, hynes 22) on the bench if genia is injured.

There was really only 4 contenders: sharpe, elsom, giteau and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper). I prolly would have given it to sharpe, maybe giteau, however rocky seemed like a good choice at the time. In hindsight the decision was wrong, but I'm not going to hark on about it as its hard to pick a captain in a team like...

I love your broken english paarl, it always cracks me up reading it.

I think since hynes is on the bench for munster he will probably be in the 22 for Italy.

Giteau + 6 others.

Can we start a petition to drop Matt Giteau. Seeing as G&GR gets a bit more media attention nowadays, maybe if we posted it on the blog dingo might see it and take note.

Its not about sacking certain people and replacing them with certain people. What RedsHappy was saying is that the ARU has FAILED as an body to successfully organise and run the game of rugby in this country, by their own standards. I think it's ironic that the code that is supposedly run by...

I don't think he set a clear distinction in regards to releasing the tackled player. Sometimes you got away with it, some times you didn't. In any case it didn't help a timid wallabies team that was trying to not give away penalties for fear of being shamefucked in the scrum. In any case, the...

Wallabies didn't lose because of the ref. But the ref was poor around the breakdown.

I was thinking exactly the same thing and I've decided the best way to counter is to just hit the line wide and hard, recycle quickly and go again. Your attack is only effective if the passing is really quick because the D-line defends in 3's and therefore can be a little bunched on one side on...

So I just woke up after going to bed in disgust last night. Luckily for many my mood has improved ever so slightly since then. My beloved wallabies once again shit me to tears. A few pointers on last nights match: A) Game plan was wrong from the start. We beat the best teams in the world...

I think we can and should have the provinces/academies play a round robin competition. Weather it happens during the super rugby season as a secondary thing, or during the test season as a domestic side-show depends on what is most feasible. Ideally they would play identical U20 and Open...

O'Connor to 12 or 21. Diggers to the wing. Giteau gone

This team can't lay claim to being the best in the world untill they fix a few things, such as: A) the scrum is shite B) They make far too many errors C) Quade can not make a front on tackle unassisted D) Giteau has lost his mojo and not dropping him for Barnes or JOC (James O'Connor) is now no longer...

Yeah sookface will be captain for sure.

If you're in Brisbane it will be on at the indro pig n whistle, which seeing as yours a doggies fan, probably inst too far from your house.

Any news on what clubs our new Mexican academy imports will be playing for?

Problem with that is you get guys wanting to leave the wallaby camp to play for there province. I really hope they don't stuff up the scheduling for the lions tour like they did in 2001.

I have a feeling that morahan will get some decent game time. Deans has stuck with him so he must see something in him he wants to build on.
