So if Matty has a good game, what does that mean for Lilo? Back to 12 or will we get to have Matt cement his spot at 12 like he did at the Wallabies?

Those "reduce facilities" at the Classic ANZAC match were a major buzzkill. Hopefully there's more than one bar and toilet open at each stadium tonight than last time!

Gilly just needs to make sure he culls that mane before he takes up the big C! We can't have our captain flicking his headback to get rid of the hair in his eyes whilst giving an interview!

The ARU signed away the rights to broadcast Super and Wallaby games till the end of the 2015 season. So any chance of re-negotiating the airing of Super games on FTA won't happen until later this year. I'd imagine the ARU may have some extra leverage this time round with the new Rugby...

I wouldn't say MMM is that far off from Wallaby selection, especially since he'd be an extremely handy reserve; one he can play blindside and lock. Having a Fardy/MMM on the bench gives Link a big boost in bench selection. Outside of Higgers, Fardy and MMM, there's not much else happening that...

I always thought Slipper preferred playing as a LHP while he gets shoved into the THP role? With Qantas going down the gurgler, what's the chances of any emergency recruits being flown over in first/business class to ensure they're "fresh" upon arrival?

Seems odd if that is the case. On his Reds profile it states So, can you be part of the Reds College as a marquee player?

Didn't we cover this to death when it happened. I thought it was quite well established that Link and Co didn't find out about the drinking shenanigans until well into the week and after the team had been announced internally.

Yow Yeh's back playing A-Grade League and the doctors aren't too sure how he will fair. There's a possibility that he'll never return to the glory days, but at the same time he could bounce back from the injury. The Doctors are urring on the later rather than the former happening though because...

Don't we have the Frenchies coming out here to play three games + mid week games? The Gold Coast doesn't have a super rugby team (and it's a shit fight for everyone including residents of the GC to get to). Canberra have also missed out.

Seems like Australia is making unnecessary flights. Why fly 5 hours to play the Saffers when we could have forced them to come to the Eastern coast. Then our players could have spent a couple of weeks in their own timezone (as we play the Argies in the GC) to fly to the republic and adjust...

I've waited since 2010 to be able to buy a new jersey that didn't look like an eyesore. I was starting to succumb to the idea of having to buy a "media polo" so that I could have something red without a crappy white box!

Is that a kid in Orc years or human years? I thought he was just born out of the mud somewhere in middle earth and turfed out onto the All Black production line.

So far, the only thing Beale is back on is the Grog. So far, he and JOC (James O'Connor) have over promised about changing their ways and under deliver on those promises. The current backs within the squad have done enough to cement their spots, anyone else has a long way to go to be able to considered for it.

Second week in a row we've kept a team try-less. Just need to stop giving away silly penalties and the score lines would look a lot better. Anyway, I'll happily take the win. Under previous management, the Scots have had the better of us. So with a very weakened team, we double the average...

Who plays wing then? You'd have to shift Izzy from 15 to 11 then move Foley into 15. So, that's another player being shuffled around, especially one who doesn't have a whole lot of experience in any other position. I can't blame Link for any of this (maybe other than not bringing another...

I'm confused with the consistency, 5 weeks from a possible 9 weeks for what Kuridrani did, but Martino Nemani only got 3 (from a possible 6) for something similar last year. Is Martino's tackle essentially half as bad as Tivitas?

Whoopps, I've been watching too much rounball lately!

We're screwed if CFS's hammy's can't hold up for an entire 90 minutes

Hah, the irony was not lost on me when they interviewed Marto for his view about drinking and the workplace.
