Ah, so that's the Valetini everyone is talking about...

There's not a lot to read into who is playing club rugby this weekend... The fact is any player who didn't play against Argentina over the past fortnight possibly hasn't played any rugby in over a month... I don't think there's any indication there of whether they will or will not be selected...

Rennie seems to believe so...

Swain was one of our best in our win against Argentina... I don't see him being dropped.

You'd have to pick Kellaway if fit, based on his performance against England and seemed to be the first choice when Banks went down last year... I'd also agree with DC, that despite his shocker last week Wright has been sensational on the wing but I'd be happy with him or Petaia starting with...

Rennie indicated Foley would unlikely be selected for the first test as he hasn’t played a game since May…

JOC (James O'Connor) goooooooone... Gleeson in.

Ireland's success was based on developing coaches such as... Nucifora, Schmidt, Farrell, Larkham, Rowntree, Andy Friend, and McFarland?

Christy Doran at Fox Sports was also reporting about Foley today... I think they've just been made aware that he'll be included in the squad.

That must’ve been tough for you… the winning, that is.

I’m not sure I recall all these major scrum shamings we’ve received in the last few years?

First, Palmer is a coach at the Brumbies... Secondly, you don't think that since 2005 Australian front rowers haven't made scrummaging a top priority? OK...

Maybe I didn't phrase the question right...

Who are these dominant scrummaging front rowers we're not currently selecting?

Again... 2011... Dan Palmer... injuries... He spent a large portion at his peak injured, and was not available for test selection during that time and then went overseas.

Nah, he was injured following his first test cap in the first test of 2012 and wasn't available for the rest of the year... he then signed a French deal in January 2013. A foot injury saw him miss much of 2013, and then surgery ruled him out for the entire test season.

Maybe Fergus Lee-Warner won't be gone for too long... https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2022/aug/17/worcesters-premiership-future-under-threat-after-winding-up-petition

Oh no, I hope the Force can do away with this madman...

Maybe that's the solution... we just use all caps, and a larger font: RUGBY AUSTRALIA, bigger than USA RUGBY.
