Which position though?

The way Thorn picks them, there's a fair chance we haven't even heard about our 9 and 10 yet

Those laws deal with offside players, which doesn't apply to Whitelock. If he's bound to a ruck until it's over, stays on his feet, doesn't tackle a player without the ball, or deliberately slap the ball to the ground I reckon he is fine to tackle the half in open play after coming through the...

What's the law on that? As far as I can see, only offside players need to retire behind the last feet once a ruck is over. No requirement for onside players to retire?

If JOC (James O'Connor) comes in I reckon it will be for Hodge

That was the literally the first linebreak Powell made all year. 0 over the regular season. I'm not saying he shouldn't be picked, obvious test level attributes are there. I'm saying good teams are going to exploit it, a bit like Foley's short kicks, or Beales defense, or any of the other...

The knock on Powell has always been that he never runs from the base of the ruck. It's just not something that's ever been part of his arsenal. And we saw today against a test level defense what that means. With no threat in close, the defenders are free to charge up and pressure any forward...

Sad way for CLL, Arnold, Speight, Carter etc (I'm sure I've missed a few!) to go out. Sport is pretty cruel sometimes

Size wise or passion? Twice as many at Stadium Australia for the Tahs final in 2014

Awesome crowd in there. They're having a great time

CLL does his best QC (Quade Cooper) impression and the pass back inside after the counter is a beauty. Very tough for the Brumbies from here
