Carter has been hidden in defence by the All Blacks and Crusaders throughout his career while not consistently, there are plenty of cases when he does. Cruden on the other than, well I for one have it burden in my mind how Quade stepped him in Wakiato to go under the sticks untouched!

Without getting too far off topic, an overweight, match needing black 7 would be more than welcome sight to take on our battle hardened Hooper or Gill!

Anyone but Nuciforia! I couldn't stomach him getting his grubby fingers over a clean Wallabies Era!

I had to read that pictures caption, got my hopes up that it was all done and dusted, Robbie had admitted defeat!

I can handle losing Link as it's for the good of the country, but if he went to the Bumbies, Quade said it best about James playing 10, "watching your girlfriend go off on a date with someone else".

Dean isn't being called to be sacked based on one 80 minute game but a combination of things such as; The World Cup Failures (losing to Ireland, getting dusted up by the Kiwis, not taking a back up 7), having a rugby style of playing not to lose, gamble selections that never pay off, a failure...

Next season? We've still got a shitload of Wallabies games to play, seven games in the upcoming Quad-Nations then the EOYT. I'd dare say Link or White will be bringing in Cooper and To'omua for the upcoming test matches. I'm not sold on Fat Cat at the moment. He hasn't looked the same prior to...

Watching him crab for the side lines this month says otherwise! Seems he finds solace in getting closer to the chalk lines! They all seem to be doing it so tough ;)

A couple more years to prove himself? Link doesn't have to prove anything more. He's taken two different Australian teams to the Super rugby finals and won it with one of them. He's done all the necessary "hard yards" in his coaching apprenticeship; coached at a super rugby level at multiple...

So Deans is concerned about the breakdown and our ability to secure the pill, fair enough. The lions got the upper-hand in that area last weekend, but why would you bring one of the most ineffectual guys into the squad? Surely Kimlin or even McMaddness would be the better options?

Maybe Douglas is still rattled from Saturday night? Seemed like he copped a few hits to the head?

Hands on the ball does not mean that the ball is out nor is it hands in the ruck. Essentially, the rule of thumb that Refs use is, a ball is out when "a bird can shit on it". From the screenshot it isn't clear whether the ball is clear of the legs. Another few milliseconds and Lydiate is well...

Notice how your line goes from completely covering the 10m? line to showing a little bit, to showing more? Your reference point isn't straight so how do you plan on using that to show Lydiate is behind the last feet? A couple of matches for deliberately entering into a ruck recklessly...

So, I'm curious, was the tackle that Tana etc did to break Brian's collarbone protecting the players interest, or the image the IRB want the game to be? If they IRB were truly concerned about their image, it's an odd time for them to be ensuring it's squeaky clean. Especially when they missed...

Those aren't parrallel lines. And what about Farrell's "reckless" stamping that took Ben Lucas's ear off during the Reds game? Shall we have the IRB look at that one as well?

Can't find anything specific on this ipad right now. But it would be odd to appeal to a court which you haven't signed jurisdiction over to? Ie why appeal the ARU no-ban on drugs if you can't enforce the CAS decision? Now I may be wrong, but doesn't the CAS have jurisdiction over every Olympic...

The IRB are subject to the rulings of the CAS. So the ARU could appeal this kangaroo court hearing to the CAS. However, I'm guessing given the timeframe, we wouldn't be able to get overturned in time.

Did you see where I previously said that it didn't occur until the 76th minute?

No, you're making him out to be doing a solid job. Where from last nights performance, he should only be accountable for two things, a dropped ball and kicking the ball out on the full. Prior to the tour, he's been talking it up how it wants to lead the Wallabies attack, but so far he ain't...

Picking a guy who's strengths is his footwork and 1 v 1 situations at 10 isn't playing to our strengths.
