Agree you cant have him miss out but I don't think he is a lock, here's hoping for not many scrums lol I've said it prob 10 times now, does anyone at all have any idea whats going on with Isi? named in the wallabies squad & 8 rounds in zero game time.

Prob makes sense to play half the games in nz then the other half in aus (or vice versa) just in case there is some out break somewhere with players & officials flying over back & fwd. Then if there all of a sudden you had a boarder closure you could have a plan B within the individual country...

No Isi Naisarani or Magney again both been a week away for 5 weeks now

Wells is un-contracted after this season as well. Surely Isi must have been on some promise from RA/Rennie after he went into surgery after the 2nd Wallabies "A" game (which he got a hatrick in) v los pumas last year to be named in the players of interest squad.

Unsure if Matt Philp when re-negotiating his covid contract took up the option of taking a year sabbatical for Pau or will be unsigned as of the end of Top14 but is returning to Super Rugby. Tahs will have a bit more money to through at him Marika is not on that much, DHP & To'omua are on more...

So we are expecting Wilkin back yeah? who misses out? Thought Leota was actually pretty good off the bench

Looked like the same crowd size as the tahs game so about 5-7k? I could be wrong the tv wasn't great & neither was my eye sight by that point.

Degan played well for about half a game against the brumbies & then lost his spot over all he was average. We are much better with Matt at 10 even though yes I believe his best position is 12. Mind you call me bias but I dont believe that JOC (James O'Connor) or Noah have been better this season that Matt. We...

3 years $3m deal with Panasonic. I’d love Skeleton to play that big 13 Folau/Korevi type

I personally don't believe Carter is ready to lead around a side at Super Rugby level just yet. But with Marika leaving we will need to do something about our outside backs next year. Who knows if DHP will get another contract, Tom Pincus is 29 & on 1/4 of what he would get in Japan & you would think...

As said previously Lomani is now a winger (just like Fines at the brumbies) & has been all season. Wessels obviously thinks him on a wing is a better option than a bloke who has played half an nrl season in 3 years & a bloke who has never played Super Rugby before.

Make sure kim jong dan gets the message & doesn't keep the boarder closed for another 28 days.

My point is there is plenty of time for a 20 yo fly half to develop. If we loose to the blues 1st game its pushing up hill to reach the final & great if the game is on the line v chiefs with 20 to great get him out there move To'omua to 12 to talk to him & say go on mate have a crack here.

Illy did v the tahs Holland or skeleton prob this week if To'omua is off the park which I highly doubt he will be. They only game that you would risk a 1st gamer at 10 would have been the Tahs. We had an incredibly difficult start to the season & we were within a scum from being 0-3. Carter...

Hodge plays 10 like against the Tahs, not the long term plan but will do for now rather than a bloke who has never played before

I would have loved him in the 22 jersey from week 1 but Wessels was coaching to keep his job this year to be honest so I dont think he really wanted to throw in a 20yo rookie in the halfs if he didnt have to knowing how important the start of season was. If we upset the reds this week & gives us...

I 100% agree but Wessels has used Lomani purely as winger just like the brumbies have used fines at 23, difference is they have Wright Muirhead Hansen then fines we have Marika ................... daylight ................. Anderson ...................... lomani/any of the others I mentioned...

It was a strange site but lets put it into perspective Anderson rolled his ankle & lomani was on the bench as a wing replacement & when the score was 33-0 & marika got cramp. Get him off & make everyone else roll their sleeves up for 8 min. Yeah it cost us 2 tries & a bonus point but i'd rather...

Tonumaipea Vudogo Pincus (move hodge to 15, Illy to 12, a couple of others can play 13) Illy (see above) all options but lomani has played every game off the bench on the wing & Wessels looks to be sticking to his guns

So where does this get played? Option 1 : Suncorp (Brumbies fly in fly out with permission they can play in Melbourne the following sunday) Option 2 : GIO (2 games on in Syd that night, raiders away that week) Option 3 : Qld Country Bank Stadium (Cowboys away that week) I hope the Reds get...
