Cheika is damned when he does and damned when he doesn't. "If" Cheika rotated more in the early tests there would have been complaints about his continual tinkering stopping the team developing cohesion. "If" Cheika makes too many changes, he is devaluing the jersey Cheika could be...

This should be fun, a load of players given the opportunities so many in these threads have been screaming for, and bugger all of those dud Tahs players who have been clearly holding back the team. Game on

Players are always being rested by managing their training load

Nah, I rubbished you for not being aware enough of your own biases and using confirmation bias (I am aware of my own) Well it is rubbish Nup When did you become the mouth piece of the Aus rugby public pot/kettle

yeah, nah "the majority of AUS rugby supporters want" o_O

I think it is the Steven Larkham effect, we seem to expect that every 10 should now chuck 15m miracle balls in each play.

The are playing a game a week ..........................

I just don't see any of the suggested changes improving outcomes. But Coleman is a massive loss and we have no direct replacement with the same skills and form to slot in. They are all downgrades

Pressure creates errors

My concern is that it is happening too often with him, it was lazy

3 Pocock 2 Arnold 1 Foley

I disagree with the premise that Aus dominated Scotland, I thought both sides had their moments and Aus's the forced passes, dropped balls and stupid errors was down to excellent work from Scotland
