If he played on the weekend he’s eligible for team of the week.........

Strange, because To'omua was certainly not the master in that game......... kicked some nice goals though.

Round 3: 1. Sio (Brumbies) 2. Kaitu'u (Force) 3. Medrano (Force) 4. Lee-Warner (Force) 5. Neville (Brumbies) 6. Anstee (Force) 7. Tizzano (Waratahs) 8. Dempsey (Waratahs) 9. Powell (Rebels) 10. Lolesio (Brumbies) 11. Koroibete (Rebels) 12. Kahui (Force) 13. Ikitau (Brumbies) 14. Ramm...

I'm going to suggest that Neville was one of the best two locks on the park.......... another strong game with some key involvements.

I actually had family come down to Melbourne for a visit, timing it to also attend the game here........... That didn't go to plan.

At least one lock and one wing......... Hosea and Koroibete were great, but their partnering player........ meh.

Really? Props, one lock, no 8, outside centre, fullback and one wing.......... Rebels props ran the ball well in open space, but got munted in the real front row work.

Lolesio the master......... already?

OFFICIAL G&GR SUPER AU TEAM OF THE WEEK ROUND TWO: 1. Slipper (Brumbies) - 2 selections 2. Mafi (Reds) - 2 3. Ala'alatoa (Brumbies) - 2 4. Swain (Brumbies) - 1 5. Neville (Brumbies) - 2 6. Valetini (Brumbies) - 2 7. Hardwick (Rebels) - 1 8. Samu (Brumbies) - 2 9. White (Brumbies) - 2 10...

Hansen wasn't as stable as Banks under the high ball last year from memory, but his counter attacking - wowsers......... Him, Wright and Muirhead with a bit of space to move is dangerous.

Hansen played fullback last year when Banks was injured, but I doubt Banks will be benched unless he has a major form drop.........

How many accounts belong to the Craig family?

My picks for Round 2......... 1. Bell (Waratahs) 2. Mafi (Reds) 3. Ala'alatoa (Brumbies) 4. Swain (Brumbies) 5. Neville (Brumbies) 6. Valetini (Brumbies) 7. Hardwick (Rebels) 8. Samu (Brumbies) 9. White (Brumbies) 10. O'Connor (Reds) 11. Hansen (Brumbies) 12. Simone (Brumbies) 13. Ikitau...

Yep, Brumbies have looked good, but need to see how they go against the Reds and Rebels before I get too excited............

Yep, pre test season I don’t think many picked Swinton on Super Rugby form, but he got selected on his potential and we saw the best and worst of him against the AB’s............ if he has some consistency in between red cards the position is his. As for Valetini - he’s been in barnstorming form, and...

Didn’t Valetini play in 3 tests last year, including the first and last 2? His lack of lineout prowess certainly holds him back from a starting spot as Rennie clearly likes a 6 who is good in the air......... But the suggestion that Swinton was more dominant in Super Rugby last year is indeed...

Actually, that didn’t take long............. OFFICIAL G&GR SUPER AU TEAM OF THE WEEK ROUND ONE: 1. Slipper (Brumbies) 2. Mafi (Reds) 3. Ala'alatoa (Brumbies) 4. Neville (Brumbies) 5. Uru (Reds) 6. Valetini (Brumbies) 7. McReight (Reds) 8. Samu (Brumbies) 9. White (Brumbies) 10. O’Connor (Reds)...

I’ll tally up this afternoon.........

I won't gush too hard at the result as I think we all knew where these two teams were at going into this match, but a couple of highlights for me: In terms of one on one match ups - Rob Valetini made Swinton his personal plaything. The Brumbies strolling through the Waratahs' mauls like they...

Are you suggesting Lolesio should've taken the quick tap instead of the drop goal?
