Dan Vickerman has to come into contention even with limited game time. I know match fitness and the unknown of his current qualities are issues, but I believe if he gets maybe 1 or 2 games before the Super Rugby finishes, and he looks solid, I would be using him as the 4th lock. As good as...

Well that's one positive to come out of this. Class player, and as Nelse said, I think is perfect for test rugby and I hope he recovers well because the wallabies are going to need him

When they say the rest of the season, is that including the World Cup?

They would have to be restin players ie: Quirk,Colby, Alo-Emile Interesting that Lucas started over Bredehan in the first game and Hooper was left out

Woops, my bad vision not helping me there haha. Surely Basson is better then Mvovo and Habana (current form)

Also, how did Bjorn Basson and Pat Lambie get left out of the latest springbok squad? I thought that was strange, especially Lambie

Just like to point out that part of Gill's arrangement to come back from U20's was that he Had to be starting. Keep in mind he was up against David Pocock, I can't imagine Latimer being that much of a challenge

Harris tweeted that he should be alright for the Finals. If anyone has any news on Hynes whatsoever, please share? As you said Tranq, with this backline injuries we can't win the comp. But with Quade and Genia running the show, you never know. If digby is available (as he should be) I...

They reckon Davies might be alright to play, and we will find out about Digby tomorow. Harris will probably be ready for the finals. I'm pretty sure Fainga'a and Lucas are very slim chances of returning

Mate differing opinions does not mean it is garbage. I suggest you learn to respond coherently and appropriately before posting things.

I'm not putting forward Brown and Saffy for Wallaby spots just for the record, just stating that I believe they are currently playing better then the two you mentioned. I don't think any of the players we have mentioned will be in the wallaby 22

I'm going to assume you haven't watched Slipper that much recently? His work rate is great and scrummaging is being let down by the other front rowers. I do agree on Sekope Kepu though, I would have him at Loosehead. On the backrow again, I don't want to come through sounding like a bad...

Paarl how are the Stormers, Sharks and Bulls shaping up for the finals? I haven't gotten to see much of them recently. I've heard the Bulls look like the darkhorses and the Sharks are struggling a bit

I understand where you are coming from but under that logic I would pick Jarrod Saffy and Richard Brown over those two. Higginbotham adds that extra dynacism (is that a word?) and without Palu for a while, we need that extra athleticism in the backrow. I think the same goes for Radike Samo...

Not sure why Mowen and Dennis are being mentioned, there is no chance they'll play this year. 1-Robinson 2-Moore 3-Slipper 4-Sharpe 5-Horwill 6-Elsom 7-Pocock 8-McCalman 16-Polota-Nau 17-Kepu 18-Simmons 19-Higginbotham/Hodgson (depending on if you want cover for Pocock or not)

Yeah I rate both Shep and McCabe very highly, just not sure if they'd get picked as wingers. Turner has never let anyone down in a Wallabies jersey, but his form this year is limiting his chances. Im sure Deans will give him a go though

I am most concerned about the wingers to be honest. Davies andHynes are not gonna be anywhere near match fit, Lachie Turner is not in form, Luke Morahan isn't international level yet, McCabe is developing more as a center/fullback then a winger, Cummins isn't international level yet, Cam...

Chiefs, Cheetahs and Hurricanes all have the potential to cause massive upsets this weekend. As cyclopath said, the bulls scare the shit out of me. They can finish 4th can't they? Darkhorses

Don't worry, David 'Freak' Pocock will do all of Higginbothams work, infact he could do all the forwards ruck work if he wanted haha. I think if higginbotham was selected you'd need someone like McCalman or Elsom to do his tough stuff while he runs out wide
