Did I miss the memo on Kane Douglas being the Wallaby savior? I could have sworn that 90% of his games in mustard have been well below par. Hell, looking at our very own G&GR player rankings, he appears to be around the 4-6 mark.

Kiwis accusing the Golden Boys of cheating? Perhaps we're getting closer to the mark of being best in the world than we thought!

The last time the national coached moved our 10 from defensive duties to 15 half this site was in an uproar. So if Izzy comes to the front line, will the other half care as much this time round? Personally I would have preferred Foley there as I feel he creates more room for the guys outside...

Company Representative. How did one acquire such a vague job title?

I agree it's different situations, I'm just pointing out there's absolutely no rush for Dom and hence the elongated recovery period than the 6 - 8 months people think it'd be. It's better for the medical team to say "12-18 months" and re-evaluate around the 8 month mark and see the progress...

So the recovery time Mitchell had didn't have an effect on his strength and conditioning especially on an area he's had problems before? As I said, 18 months is drawn out. Just like Pocock's injury. Hypothetically, he could be right for the spring tour, but why risk it? It's the same for Dom...

His rushed rehabilitation left him undercooked and barely lasted a couple games after returning. Yow Yeh is a similar story, but the treating docs in Perth stuffed up and he had complications due to incorrectly cleaning the wound and it got infected. He suffered because of that and was never...

If he's developing why is he not an assistant coach rather than the head coach? What company hires a CEO to develop and go "oh it's ok if he makes some mistakes, he's learning." The shareholders wouldn't stand for it and I doubt the fans in this case will either.

Did Kev look skinnier to anyone last night? The GF mentioned to me that he looked slimmer especially since his time at the Wallabies? It'd explain the increase of his mobility and work rate around the park picking up. 3 - Slipper 2 - Davies (personally I think his involvement was great and was...

Sure he has the opportunity to turn things around, but we haven't seen anything in Graham's coaching career to suggest he can. We haven't seen anything improve on last year, just constant regression in skills, so I'm not of the opinion he should be given such an opportunity. The only thing that...

Sorry should have specified, but those figures are based on normal rounds (figures I took from the overall standings) so finals haven't been included. I took them straight from the Super rugby wiki page on each year, Reg expanded it them even more!

Bringing some fresh talent in will no doubt help but look at this; 2008 - 323 2009 - 380 2010 - 308 2011 - 309 2012 - 347 2013 - 296 2014 - 459 The figures on the right are points conceded. It's astonishing that last year was our best defensive record in a long time and then the following...

Welcome back home Izzy!?

Thankfully the Tahs don't have any Quade 'Twinkletoes' Cooper to dance around Reg ;)

Surely the QRU can pay off the bouncers of Brisbane not to let James into a pub after 11 and send him packing after 12?

Bloody glad to see big Kev have his best game in two years. The guy has been everywhere tonight. Must have been something in the water at Wallaby camp!

Maybe the Harris + Dom + whatever low level fruit was a trade for McMahon? ;)

This - no point in considering CFS as a starter when the only thing certain is his hammy going pop. Last thing we want is to depend on another guy to be there when in the last two years he probably hasn't been fit to play an entire seasons worth of games.

Piss off with the marketing gimmicks and use the money on things that will actually put bums on seats, winning games.

Dick has come out and said Freddie ain't their thang; http://www.theaustralian.com.au/sport/rugby-union/hints-of-change-on-sabbaticals/story-e6frg7o6-1226963142884# Thank christ for that. Sad how Dick will say we're not interested in players but won't mention who we've signed to cover the...
