Wright is probably the form Australian winger over the past month, but being test rugby I'd start with Koro and Kellaway and have Wright or Petaia on the bench... I do wonder if Rennie is interested in trialing either of the latter two at fullback at some point this year.

After watching the Reds game on Friday night… I wouldn’t be so sure about that.

It’s really not, because in the end it’s still a vastly larger percentage of a larger percentage vs a tiny fraction of a smaller percentage… Also, the Māori population of NZ is closer to 880,000.

I'm sure Adelaide will be good for at least one of Spain's Romania's pool matches...

Being within close proximity to South Yarra is not a selling point... Chapel Street is garbage. I would say that, without a doubt, the CBD is a much more desirable destination than Richmond for food and drink... although the CBD is bereft of pubs... But I'm in Footscray, so I'm already spoiled...

It's definitely one of the best aspects of that entire sporting precinct is its proximity to Richmond or the city... we usually just walk back into the cbd afterwards - I'm not a big fan of the Richmond nightlife... Marvel Stadium is handy with the station right there, but as someone mentioned...

I went to the Wallabies Bledisloe win in 2007 at the MCG... great game for sure, but those two massive empty pockets of the field in the middle of the ground don't make for the best viewing experience, and it doesn't look great on TV:

Big stadium... shit for rugby.

Two submissions so far…

Well, no... they won't go to the games if you exclude them.

The Wallabies should take over the NSWRU instead of handing out jerseys to school kids?

Neville has re-signed for another year... https://brumbies.rugby/news/cadeyrn-neville-resigns-with-brumbies-and-rugby-australia-until-the-end-of-2023-2022511 Nine reporting that Nic White is also expected to stay on for another year.

I think what Dctarget is getting at here is rugby has a very narrow appeal in this country, particularly compared to other popular sports... RA taking the game to people who fall outside the private school toffs, pacific islanders and Kiwi expats is only a good thing.

The Brumbies haven't beaten the Crusaders since 2009... A win would be nice, but I'm not going to get my hopes up.

I’ll kick off R12… 1. Bell 2. Fainga’a 3. Kautai 4. Swain 5. Holloway 6. Valetini 7. Brown 8. Samu 9. Whote 10. Lolesio 11. Wright 12. Kuenzle 13. Perese 14. Nawaqanitawase 15. Banks
