    Wallabies v. Wales - 1 Dec

    Hoops / Pockock. Hooper deserved to retain his spot. Although Hooper has strung together a number of MOM awards, I think he would have an even better showing if the Wobs played an attacking brand of rugby like the Brumbies did this year. Where as Pockock maybe more suited to the defensive...

    Shute Shield 2013

    Knuckles, I hope this is not the case. That is throwing away money that could be used elsewhere. They have had 15 years at the top, and over the years had some help that has got them no where. If it is available - look at what the AFL did through the schools with Auskick -...

    Should Pocock have to earn back his starting spot?

    Each player has his strengths, the debate could go on - draw. It is a team, the best player comes down to our game plan and the opposition.

    Will Cooper play for the Reds in 2013?

    Braveheart - what are you completely disagreeing with; His form in 2011 when Reds one the tittle and he signed the one year contract? Alot of the participants on the forum are frusted with the Wallabies? What or how he said what he said was wrong, it possibly could have been commincated...

    Will Cooper play for the Reds in 2013?

    Inside shoulder - his wage reflected what he was doing on the padock when he signed the contract. He deserved every cent. Hearing a bad word - he is sharing the same frustrations as the supporters, here we are sitting at desks passing comments about the Wallabies, and he comes out and says what...

    Will Cooper play for the Reds in 2013?

    I hope so, I think it had each Aust province cheering for the Reds because of the brand of rugby that was being played.

    OR he gets pissed when he is frustrated.

    Will Cooper play for the Reds in 2013?

    ILTW - I'm not saying he has not done wrong, I m pointing out that the majority of the forum have been critical of the Wallabies attacking prowess, their kicking, their game play - Cooper spoke up and got harpooned. I dont have a list of his off field problems, and the timing - my recolection...

    Will Cooper play for the Reds in 2013?

    @ 24 I think more responsability needs to lay ith his bosses, the people he reports to, they need to manage him and coach him - Link has done that well. Another very gifted player - Andrew Walker - under Rod Mcqueen he excelled, under other coaches - walk about. Whether in business, or sport...

    Will Cooper play for the Reds in 2013?

    So the participants of the forum are safe to sit behind keyboards and share thoughts about Deans, Phipps, Wobs, Tah's QC (Quade Cooper) etc, and he shares his thoughts openly, thoughts in comparitive angles that quite a few people agree with and he is harpooooooned. I agree the method and his wording /...

    Wallabies vs Italy - 25th Nov

    :) - what gets me is his tackling technique and the positioning of his head. commited in defence yes but one day he will do serious damage.

    Wallabies vs Italy - 25th Nov

    Bruce - that's right it comes back to game plan and idea's though. At kick off the forwards use to run the tram lines, the 2nd rowers stood there waiting as they new the ball was coming their way, Rod McQueen thought why are we kicking it to the tallest player on the field, and to a player who...

    Wallabies vs Italy - 25th Nov

    I have painfully watched that game 3 times to re affirm my thoughts. Breakdown - comes down to technique, fundamentals, and SPEED & PASSION (!!!), Gone are the days when 8 men pile in, teams generally now try and commit as few as possible to the break down. If we are getting dominated change...

    Wallabies vs Italy - 25th Nov

    Deans / Game plan / Options is a far greater problem than Phipps. Without having a plan it is vary easy to pass aimlessly without purpose, they dont even play what is in front of them - they kick through or over what is in front of them. The problem is not Phipps

    GAGR Vote - Should Deans go after the EOYT?

    Jets, an Ex Wallaby & Coach had us complete all fitness drills including a ball, hill sprints, stairs, "all drills" included a ball because you need to perform under stress. You need the ball to score / convert points. The other - no game plan at all, it was terrible, and then in todays Daily...

    GAGR Vote - Should Deans go after the EOYT?

    SACK HIM - sooner the better; That game V Italy, it was like our team was put together the morning of the game. There was no plan/s, structure, or execution. That is the coaches job. I cant remeber when we had 7 structure phases with a purpose. The kicking has been aimless. The angles run have...

    Wallabies vs Italy - 25th Nov

    Deans that performace rest on your shoulders. For the record it was a win BUT We are nearing the end of our season, watching that game was like watching a team that was put together the morning of game day - nobody new what each other was doing, angles, phases, kicking, was all done aimlessly...
