    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    Yeah I've stated numerous time they are our best 2/3 players with Folau. But at the end of the day they are both 7's. Maybe we would have won if Hooper came off the bench and provided much needed impact in the last 30mins. Who knows? But now we've lost 6 games in a row.... so it's probably a...

    What's Holloways status? He recovered from his injury yet?

    Or alternatively get Hooper to run closer to the ruck.

    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    Doesn't this go for half our squad. Or more? McMahon probably the only one who screams "pick me" at super xv level consistently. Actually DHP this year too. No other stand-outs I can see.

    Not sure we can call Douglas a quality jumper either.

    What ever happened to Mike Harris? he'd be handy at 12 right about now.

    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    Don't think he would have missed as many 1 v 1's that directly led to tries. DHP was a bad as you can get. Brought me back to KB (Kurtley Beale), Cooper and Mogg in the early days. But having said that Mitchell does not look like a good option at all. Rather Morahan, Hodge or even Speight who are looking 10...

    Although can't be any worse then DHP on the wing missing every tackle.

    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    Exactly my thinking. IMO his best current position is 7. But we already got 2 world class ones.

    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    I hope your right on McMahon, love his aggression, just haven't seen it translate to test level yet. Wish he was a few inches taller and/or a 10kgs heavier.

    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    Michael Hooper. The guy who was nominated player of year only last year. Put Shalk Burger flat on his ass numerous times. I don't recall McMahon capable of hits like that? Maybe against a winger but never against some-one larger then him. Don't get me wrong he is a very good player but not...

    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    Easily? Based on what? Super XV form? cos he's had one Test (against a Teir 1 nation) so far where his ball-running was above average.

    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    McMahon is used regularly at line-outs and he is getting close to Hooper's level around the field - at super xv level he's already there. So there's a small point of difference there. Although, personally I'd stick with Hooper off the bench but I can see McMahon pushing Hoopers heels come RWC -...

    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    I don't think that's good enough cover for what is probably the most key position in the back-line. One super xv cap in the position doesn't make him a 10. JOC (James O'Connor) also played 10 for the Force and scored a lot of points and we all know how that ended up. Like it or not Foley will be on the bench...

    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    Why Arnold over Coleman? I thought Coleman looked more up to Test level then Arnold, plus Arnold returning from injury probably better as a bench option. Here's a better question. Why not both in front of Douglas? (who I feel is a bit over-rated now).

    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    You'd think Goodwin would actually be a decent chance to start at 12 given he's the only man left standing who plays in that position regularly. I'd rather him then Foley at 12.

    Brumbies 2017

    Yes Larkham played uninspiring rugby, lacked spark on attack. But he is growing and hopefully learning... remember this is only his 2nd year as coach. He's done a shit load better then Richard Graham who inherited a similar level of team. I can give him the benefit of the doubt and hope he...
