Jesse Mogg's training this week: Player runs at you. Tackle him or do 20. Repeat for one hour.

Channel 10 - Reminding you that not all players slide seamlessly into commentary.

Fardy out injured? EDIT: Saw Fardy warming up, McMeniman?

Hookers and Backrows are the best captains from experience. A good VC is your flyhalf.

Luatua debut - Good for us in short term, bad in long term.

Mowen seems to break the line against NZ opposition, but not RSA opposition.

Team announcement is most likely Friday. Remember that the coach often talks to outsiders regarding selection - press could have gotten it from slip of tongue, email or overheard phone call, anything. That said, doubt the press when they say it's 100% :P

Surely the counter argument to this is "How do I know I'm being selected because I'm right for the spot, not because I am 'a man of colour'?"

I'll take a stab too Sio, Moore, Alexander, Simmons, Horwill, Mowen, Gill, McCalman, Genia, To'omua, JOC (James O'Connor), Lilo, AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper), Folau, Mogg Fainga'a, Kepu, Slipper, Fardy, Hooper, White, Cooper, Cummins

Sully I'm interested - Is the low tackle count due to the Brumbies tight defence up front? Is he missing more because the people who break the line are good enough to beat the one tackler remaining? Or has he just been slack and has poor tackling technique? As mentioned above, he's fine from the...

Losing JMFL will be big.

Bairdy I've gone with O. Franks, Alexander (Woodcock) Moore (c) (Strauss) Etzebeth, Whitelock (Albacete) Read, JMFL, Louw (McCaw) Landajo (White) Steyn (vc) (JMH) Lealiifano, Hernandez (Engelbrecht) B. Smith, Folau, Camacho (Kirchner) EDIT: Changed my mind. Scrum halves suck with the current...

Only experience iirc. If you want to know about the Argies, you want JMFL, Albacete, Bosch and Camacho.

Hmm, I do seem to remember Lobo at flanker, maybe he's a Deon Fourie? :P

So I'm predicting Ayerza, Creevy, Figalo, Albacete, Carizza, JMFL (c), JML, Senatore, Landajo, JMH, Imhoff, S. Fernandex, Bosch, Camacho, Tuculet Guinazu, Diaz, ??? (who is their 6th front rower Santiago?), Galarza, Lobo, Cubelli, Sanchez, Contepomi

Brumby Jack Royals 59.

Betham seems to have shown his upper limit during the year. I'd much prefer to see a back three of Crawford and Folau on the wings and Beale at fullback.

I don't think Argentina was this good at RWC2007, even the subs are great.

Thought it was just who had the most caps :P

......... me .........
