Re: Wales vs Springbokke - Built up Surely Peter Grant is a better option than Earl Rose? Earl Rose makes James O'conner look big.

Australian Rugby is yet to receive the full benefits of the 4th team yet but it will start to show over the next 5 years when the Wallabies are able to produce year in year out which is something we've struggled to do as a rugby nation. We've usually been good in cycles & been able to produce...

I hear what your saying but Australian Rugby needs the Western Force for the good of the game & they need some big name players to help grow the game out West.

Donald had a good game in Brisbane. Hosea Gear is a good selection he's brother used to give Lote a bath but then really struggled against AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) in Melbourne which cost him a RWC selection.

I'm with Noddy I think Gits should stay at the Force & try to make them semi finals regulars rather than go back to the Brumbies. Wherever Gits goes his boyfriend Drew Mitchell is sure to follow also. It's good in a way that we would have an Aussie super 14 team capable of winning the super...

Losing Horwill was a real setback but I think Chisolm & Sharpe will lift for the Honkers match, both have been dropped & in the back of thier minds they know that they're only seen as the 3rd & 4th best locks in the country so they have a lot to prove. From the lastest reports it seems the MMM...

You would hope not but I suppose he's being realistic. But maybe that's the differrence between the Aussies & the All Blacks. They go in expecting to win every game no matter what we don't. Another thing is most NH teams expect to beat us now where as they talk a big game against the Kiwis...

They've got to scrum against someone we can't keep them in cotton wool forever, It's not like we have a brilliant scrumming reputation in the north anyway.

Deans has said that every squad player will get gametime. I would like to see Pocock warm the bench against the All Blacks in Hong Kong. Deans didn't want to bring on Waugh in Brisbane & with Palu missing maybe Smith could play the last 20 minutes at #8. I hope he does pick a young team for...

I'd like to see Barnes & Giteau swap for a couple of games, Rod Kafer has been calling for this all year.

You'll have to ask the Hawkes Bay fans who took banners to the NPC semi final at Jade Stadium this year. They don't seem to think he's very fair.

I don't see Smith getting strangled by his national teamates in super 14 matches & Tialata isn't the only Kiwi I've seen go after McCaw illegally.

I have put myself through the pain of watching the Bledisloe 3 replay on about 4 occasions now & have probably watched the Bledisloe 1 replay about 7-8 times. I know Richie McCheat wasn't playing in Sydney but I think the loss of Barnes & Burgess in Brisbane was was a major blow. Burgess is...

Surely it will be on free to air. I might get on the 7 website & have a look.

Definitely been a long time between drinks in France, have had a couple of close calls since but no cigar. In 2004 we had a chance to knock them over but the touch judge ruled that lote had stepped out when the replayed showed he was about two inches inside the line. If anything we have to...

Well the Baa Baas & Italy you would hope are in the bank regardless of how many superstars turn out for the Baa Baas. We have to beat England no excuses no need to explain why. Then I'd like to think we can turn over at least one of New Zealand, France or Wales. I think the Kiwis might...

The aussies are the kings of under performing away from home we would need to win at least 4 games for this to be a success.

McCaw maybe regarded the best openside in world rugby but Smith is regarded the best & fairest openside in world rugby.

Yeah & there was another bloke with a woman who i've never seen before either.

Elsom & Tuqiri were schooled in Qld so that's good enough. Being schooled in Qld is good enough for Mat Rogers & league SOS.
