    Does anyone know of an online source for the final?

    World XV (Or Earth's XV, Terran XV, whatever you like)

    I think when Nau gets his mojo back he'll be a definite world XV man. He is potentially a Wallaby great. His progress has been slowed by some injuries but maybe that is no bad thing for his longevity.

    2010 Wallabies End of Year Tour (EOYT)

    Mitchell offers the same line breaking ability as Digby, it's just that he is sometimes quite flaky, whereas Digby seems to have been trained out of his flakiness, which mostly consisted of dropping the ball. Drew's flakiness is deeper.

    World XV (Or Earth's XV, Terran XV, whatever you like)

    I think many animals might have handling difficulties. But the simple addition of elephant at 8 and polar bear at 1 would greatly improve the Wallabies.

    MacQueen turned the Wallabies around in one pre-season

    I think the talent we have now is exceptional, potentially a golden age for Wallaby rugby.

    You're slowly converting me from a lifetime of training dogma, Bruce.

    Well, he certainly has the ex- factor. Money Bill Williams has never seen a contract he couldn't walk away from. :fishing

    Yes, all those line breaks by Horne last year were actually a sophisticated form of defence. ;)

    Sonny Bill Williams

    Well, if he's 110kg now then he's a few kg heavier than Pocock, a few kg less than Elsom, and 10 less than Palu. But hey, the mantle of greatness more than makes up for that!

    chisolm out> VAN THE MAN

    Van has a great line in rolling c*nts but if he was international standard he would have played Wallaby rugby a decade ago. He'd be good to have in the squad, but then we haven't got room for one of Simmons or Douglas.

    Commonwealth Games Rugby 7s

    If we were to pick an ideal Australian Olympics sevens team for 2016, from all players playing now, who would be in it? Maybe: O'Connor Cooper Beale Davies Pocock Higginbotham Nau ?

    Yes, their largest player.

    John Eales Medal

    It's an interesting question. I've always been a Palu fan, and one argument I always use with Cliffy sceptics is how well he always does in player polls. Generally, you'd have to argue that the men on the field know a lot more than we do about what goes on out there. Firstly, they are there...

    Decent All Black skills

    Nah, that's the old way. I have had a play with EIAS3D and all you have to do is shoot two scenes from the same position: one with the start action you want (Weepu passing) and one with the end action (the ball knocks off a target ball). Then you divide the visual frame into thee zones: a start...

    Wallaby Injuries

    Nah, McCalman is just starting. Palu is a world-class 8 with considerable experience. We need him back.

    Decent All Black skills

    They're using live action morphing software. You take two sequences and the software produces the second end frame from the first start frame. It works best when the start and end positions are quite similar, so they do a 'take' with the introductory banter, and then keep trying until they...

    2010 Wallabies End of Year Tour (EOYT)

    Palmer deserves some development time. It would be good for Oz to have a specialist THP scrummager as an option for when circumstances demand it. Kepu, Charles/Fitzpatrick and Palmer would make a very solid midweek scrummaging front row.
