Gee I see a lot of criticism toward To'omua and his lack of effect in attack and play making. Most of it justified. BUT what about Foley? He hasn't done much better and he is the chief play-maker after all. Not sure why the 12 is being crucified but the 10 who should be doing most of the...

Agreed. It's time for him to step up.

Some nice points. But i stand by my argument. You want to see at least some sort of improvement. Beale has minimal improvement in 7 professional seasons. I'm afraid if he isn't able to perform on a consistent basis by now he never will. Compare Beale to Cooper, JOC (James O'Connor) or Foley. Cooper has shown...

To be fair I think at times its the right tactic. When the defence comes up fast and there is space out-wide and behind a well-executed grubber is a good choice. Last game To'omua's execution was poor though. I am referring to the one around the 51min mark I believe. It looked to be an over-lap...

I agree with most of that, KB (Kurtley Beale) is definitely the better broken play runner, in fact on his game one the best in the world. In regards to being prone to errors, I think the difference is vast. Foley makes a couple of mistakes but KB (Kurtley Beale) makes some very poor and significant mistakes which more often...

It's Beale's fault for not locking down the 15 Jersey. If he had worked on his weaknesses, High ball skills & ball security he'd be the wallaby 15 and Falou would probably still be on the wing. To an extent, players need to take some responsibility for being shifted around so much. And even if...

Did you watch the NZ games? When Foley came on the field he immediately threatening the line, Ran Straight, and does what Beale does not and secure the ball into contact. Foley has a good running game, especially in broken play, If you recall he did start his career at fullback and carved it...

No mention of S,Fainga and his improved scrum work. I was impressed with out scrum last weekend and even more impressed we were able to dominate at times with Fainga in there. Seems like his scrum is no longer a weakness for him.

We are talking backline play fatprop. And I actually think last game we were pretty great around the breakdown and into contact. Apart from the last 10 minutes.

I agree but Beale is not answer, He has been tested to break the game open twice and failed miserably. Now he's failing from the bench. I agree with all the rest but we simply don't have the cattle, we need to work with what we got and currently Foley is miles ahead of Beale. I'm quietly...

its not 2010 anymore. Last year Beale was a liability. Same with this year. Foley has shown this year his impact from the bench, as soon as he came on we saw some spark. That as more then Beale has done from the bench. I would take Foley over him any day. Utility value and game-breaking...

Cooper does that pretty often. One of his under-rated skills IMO.

Didn't Lilo go with the touring squad. He should replace the injured To'omua. I don't care how bad his form is anything is better then Beale.

3. Kuridrani 2. Fardy 1. Kepu

He was animal in both defence and attack, plus how many bloody turnovers did he make? Great player.

He missed a couple in the finals for the Brumbies and last year for the wallabies. I think he has more misses then White and Mogg.

This is the game I think we should have finished with Hodgson on the field. He was so effective last time I'm really not sure why McKenzie didn't keep him on the bench.

The new Mortlock.

Yeah Ref's shouldn't be able to go that far back in play, they should stop the play when it happens or leave it. They let play go on for 3 minutes which is dead-play, re-set the clock at least.

My god how many bloody times does he miss touch for penalties. Its ridiculous.
