I know I shouldn't ask, because I know what's coming, but... What political statement?

I expect it will be a lot different this time, particularly as they'll be the host broadcaster (not Fox) and they've got much more invested this time with their own production team... From memory, didn't Nine just run with the host broadcast/Fox commentary feed last time around with the...

You didn't like it when Genia ran from dummy half all those times?

My preference would be to see Wilson at 6, where I think he can be more dynamic than Valetini at test level, and where he played well in his opening test against the AB's back in 2020... Valetini's carries off the back of the scrum when we were under pressure were very impressive in the first...

SMH going with a panel that features Valetini, Hooper and Wilson…

I know you hate rugby and have complained in every match thread this year about why do you even bother watching it, but this is the match thread for the deciding test match between Australia England, not the rugby for dummies World Cup between Logan and Bankstown…

No, no it does not…

What happened after the 5th tackle? Did they kick it?

The Wilsotini? Commonly misspelled as the Wilsontini...

It's all explained in the Angus Gardner video above... as well in detail by another poster in the refereeing thread.

He was expected to be back for this match, so if fit I would expect to start...

Cheers @Old High Boy... here's that Gardner video you mentioned: https://www.facebook.com/foxrugby/videos/kick-chase-knock-on-explanation/1688792341156256/

I assume Vunivalu will be starting if Wright stays at fullback…

I assume sanity prevails and Philip/Frost will start this weekend...

Holloway and Hanigan are both unavailable through injury… But I wouldn’t want Hanigan covering lock in a test match against England. I also don’t think benching the in form Bell and Porecki and replacing them with smaller players is going to beef up our front row.

Drafting LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) straight onto the bench would be ideal based on who is left in the squad... otherwise another option would be moving Leota to the bench to cover lock/backrow, and start with Wilson...

Really? So he's not an ex-employee?

McKellar is not an ex-employee...
