Elsom is one of the players who chase cash over country. Smith, he has always served, and respected the gold jersey with distiction.

I'm sure Suntory, and Japanese Rugby would be benifiting, taking advantage of his world wide exposure.

Our awesome coach thought we needed only one for the world cup. A player like George has Respect from the ref. Respect from the team. Respect from the opposition. But then he is still a world class player to boot.

Manly Colst V West Harbour - http://manlyrugby.com.au/news-mainmenu-101/latest-news-mainmenu-100/713-colts-show-depth-with-clean-sweep-vs-wests Great to read Phil Blake floating around the the whole club

. Very well put. It should be noted though when Smith debuted in 2001 there was Eales, Gregan, and a number of other ver seasoned players who were involved in the 99 world cup success - given our performance over the last 18 months I'd struggle to say there was a seasoned perfermer that knew...

Hit print and print a contract, surely that was learnt as one of the Private schools

Then there is the rapport / awe with the ref that has been developed over the years Fitzpatrick had it, McCaw has it, and George Smith has it - Hooper and Gill dont have it yet. Deans is the only one with an ego.

Here in lies one of Dean's problems, I read on G&GR that Suntory hasn't even been asked?? People are backing Smith because they see something that Deans doesn't. People complained about the Wallabies attacking prowess over that last 2 years, and Deans? Hooper v Gill, I'd go Hooper as he brings...

Wallabies coadch - Assistant wallabies coach of the 99 World Cup we won would have been a great fit with link.

That would be great, you reviews are always a great read.

Cheers, Granville, or a plug for the colts this weekend? Turtle bring back any Fijians with him? would love to have seen Link & Laney replace Deans and co - oh well he'll be stuck in France.

Did any body read McEnzies thoughts / reasons behind Cooper at 15 in D. 1. great counter attack, 2. lance tackles, gill (or Smith / Hooper) turns over, cooper first reciever on quick ball counter attack. And Deans methods for the last 24 months has seen a heap of tries scored. Would love to...

very well put

.?.?.?. That is all its worth

You are claiming them as players of your local comp. Scott Sio We are forced to accept Brumbies players having to play down there, maybe you should accept that a number of the Brumbies players were brought up through our nursery. Brumbies had very limited involvement with Scott Sio. Maybe...

Ah Ryan, after our game against Gordon last week I know your pain. Who was it?

Slim, i think you are missing the point. We understand the Brumbies stance, and are forced to accept it. BUT, there are players at the Brumbies that clearly did not come through the ACT nursery and you are claiming them as players of your local comp. I'll find it very hard to believe if those...

QH I was sitting next a World Cup ref a couple of years back - he openly said on some occasions r have no idea why a scrum colapses, twists, etc we just give a free kick so the game can flow. Playing in the front row I love a good scrum, the backs will never understand. You complained about 5...

Fine weather rugby played down at the village, passes sticking this week, nice angles being run, creating space out wide with some nice speed - enjoyable rugby. 7 from 7 with a number of bonus point victories, and some hatrics thrown in. 2's - Ground announcer "Manly defeated wests by Alot to...
