Berry loves his whistle

Ugly shot. But Swinton.....

Maybe, but we as a nation haven’t had so many good five eighths coming through for a long time.

If only for the paisami, perese, Petaia combo. Just to make life hard for the commentators

Haha. Point taken.

It would be good to share the wealth for the good of Australian rugby. Better Edmed or Donaldson (assuming Harrison stays first choice) playing for someone here and pushing for wallabies spots instead of playing in Japan or Europe.

Would be nice to have a bit of transparency with the decision.

It’s not a bad problem to have, that young talent coming through in a key position.

Classic.

Bad execution, but who called the lineout? Disappointing result.

I guess the group is wallabies 2021 and yes Petaia and Wright won’t play fb this year, probably impact off the bench and wing will be their roles. But both of them given the opportunity have the ability to be world class 15s, which none of our current crop are.

Mate, I agree. Unfortunately tv are the paymasters these days and if they say they will give you $X to show your game, but can you do this, that and the other, the people accepting the money are going to go along with it. In Australia anyways where we weren’t sure what the future held without...

I’d be happier with a draw also, but if they insist on it, at least make it exciting.

That’s why I thought 4 point or more points to win the game. If a team wins by 3 competition points are a draw and aggregate scores stand. Chiefs highlanders shouldn’t have been decided like that. Challenge could be used for a breather before a defensive scrum.

To me Wright at 15 is our best bet looking forward, he reads the play well and usually takes the best option, he can kick, ball play, score a try, seems chatty, so communication shouldn’t be an issue. But he should prove himself at Super Rugby level in that position and Banks is fb at the brumbies at...

Golden point should be win by 4 points plus or try. If a team wins by 3, comp points are for a draw and the extra 3 added to points differential.

I couldn’t see him playing 10, but he does cover the 12-15 positions as well as the strike player off the bench that could open up another spot for a specialist 10/12 off the bench.

How come no one else tightened the purse strings? Fact is, rugby is struggling to convince the fair weather fan. how’s running out an under strength team that gets flogged week in week out going to get non rugby people interested?

The way the bench is structured 4 of the 8 are always specialists, the replacement halfback and front row. Then you need a lock and a loosie as injury cover/tactical replacement. In hodge you cover the rest of the backline and have the luxury of bringing on a strike player like Wright or dungunu...

How are the woodies financials? Izzy wouldn’t get out of bed for what a club team would pay him.
