That's a bit harsh on Deans. Barnes has just become available. Deans hasn't yet even had the option of choosing him over McCabe.

There seems to be an awful lot of pessimism about at the moment. We haven't played particularly well, but neither have South Africa, beating Wales by a point and Samoa by 8. There'll be a considerable step up in intensity from both teams for this game. As it currently stands, we're 2-0 up...

Wales for me, and a Wallaby vs. Wales final.

Personally, I think Hodgson is an outstanding player and it's a mystery to me why he hasn't stepped up in tests. Not that he's played badly for Australia - that's not the case - but he's never displayed his Super Rugby capabilities, even against weaker opposition that Super Rugby teams.

I was genuinely shocked when I read it just now, Swat. Imagine the furore if one of our Aussie scribes had written such trenchant personal criticisms of another national team's players!

Yes, but Italy would be in front of Ireland, so the pool game winner method would be tied.

A most depressing assessment: http://tvnz.co.nz/rugby-world-cup/max-bania-wallabies-bring-abuse-upon-themselves-4419118 :( "We don't like trash-talkers and so we take particular satisfaction when the pro-green-and-gold opinions of Wallaby has-beens like Toutai Kefu and Bob Dwyer are...

Where is the Dave Dennis option?

A cheekbone fracture from a head clash is just bad luck.

The Ricoh is definitely a real, and collectible jersey.

I'm sure the original poster had absolutely no idea how Hodgson actually played in those matches. This is the Internet after all.
