A year ago I would have wholeheartedly agreed, but his work this year has gone backwards. I believe there is immense talent there, hopefully he finds it again, plays flatter, uses his size to get through the line and stops passing 10m behind the gain line

Your "interpretation" of the reason Folau was moved into the defensive pendulum is incorrect. Having both of them available for kick return was the reason. The same "reason" had Folau on the wing in that pendulum at times as it moved to defend the open side. I am pretty sure he wasn't...

Ahh ............... I call bullshit

and he is the last 12 standing.

It is very "Cheika" (to bring in Korobeite) we have had a significant weakness all season out wide, too slow and no threat one on one. He bought in Naiyaravoro half way through a Tahs season for that threat Cheika prefers wingers who are a threat one on one when given an inch of space. We...

dunno, Figg may be quicker, lets see if how he goes for the Force

The thing Dempsey has over a lot of the other options appears to be real pace

If the NRC grows to get the coverage level of the Sheffield Shield, I will be happy, and that doesn't mean massive crowds. But it does mean a great development pathway the Super rugby. The Wobs head off into "camp" for the home tests campaign and the balance head to the NRC with the up and...

Well Richard Graham is available ....................

It presumes he\we has\have the cattle to do better than where we are. We are not anyway near the ABs (or a resurgent England.) We are at the level of getting close the the Boks away and we should do alright in November for the most part I tend to think that is where we are at the moment...

There are plenty of coaches who blow up to take the heat for their side

Change is wonderful concept, if it would actually help. So the simple question is change to who? and what evidence is their that the current "situation" would improve? Happy to see a change, if there is a viable option with some track record. The only Aus coach who has a real track record...

Cheika is the best Aus coach available, with a f*ck load of daylight between him and the next level. There is no Aus coach near him in success or experience Simples

We must have gone really, really bad in the tournament with such a crappy 10, oh wait ......................

Did you watch the RWC?

why would the Abs be bothered to change their game plan? all they are going to do is run straight & catch and pass like they have all season and score 30 on us

I would assume that Phipp's attributes suit Foley's play more than Cooper's Cooper likes his 9 to direct play until Cooper calls for it. Phipps clears the ball and the 10 makes those decisions playing off quicker ball (hopefully) closer/flatter on the advantage line

Yeah, the flipping in of Cooper, Naivalu and Fardy would change the outcome? Really?

It is funny that we continually argue about the backs while we have real form issues with stalwarts like Kepu and Moore and the disappearance from the team of Slipper. Honestly the only positive of this season is that we look to have finally found a pair of decent locks in Coleman and Arnold

It isn't really comparing apples with apples is it, Foley has no success playing 10 vs England & the ABs Cooper has success against teams closer to our standard, but no better against the AB's. I would suggest that Foley at 10 vs the Argies and Boks @ home would have had the same results...
