It would have made my fucking day!

At last you have identified 1 task out of the many, that you think Quade can be trusted doing, at Test level. You have already suggested Quade should defend out the back, That he shouldn't touch the ball in our own half. That he should no longer play "at the line". You keep saying he should be...

You channeling Michael Foley now? How bout a few statistics to top it off,Foley style!!

I also share the same bias. I doubted from the outset that he would ever have the mobility and the work rate necessary to succeed. If he wasn't MOM yesterday he was very close. He has definitely proved he can compete at this level. I am eating my humble pie as I type.......

There was a squad of fifty wasn't there? Surely a game or three between them all would have helped? That or go with BR's suggestion with SS Colt's teams.

No one has suggested he plays no part in the team.Of course he organises them, that's the 10's job. Look at the replay, who is geeing up the boys before kick off? It was Robinson. I'm not criticising him, I'm just stating that some of the posts suggesting this was a majestic display of...

Scotty, what is Cooper's value add? If you don't trust him with his flat passes at the line, then why on earth would you pick him? If he plays in the pocket, there are much better options than him. If you remove all of his mistake making actions,you remove his value add. It's these high risk...

You worry too much IS. The best of these youngsters will end up somehow in a GPS environment. Excellent coaching and drills will eliminate these weaknesses. The rest? Surplus to requirements apparently. Apparently not needed by the code for another decade or so, until they have their own cash to...

Yeah OK, he was more inspirational than AB at his best. Happy now?

Well Bruce, your bias is showing. Cultural fit is an important part of the recruitment process. Has Louden ever had a 3 or 4 win season? More importantly,did he ever lose his last 8 consecutive games as a head coach? Given Foley's Loss/win ratio, they thought he would be a better cultural fit...

What did Quade do apart from being selected as captain? The on field leader was clearly Robinson. Sure Quade told the ref what penalty option he was taking,but the actual of leading the side? Nah. He didn't do anything wrong, nor did he do anything particularly right,deserving of a special mention.

And they weren't punished by his unique Quade magic either! He is still the mistake machine he has always been.Go back to only last week with his atrocious kicking game. No Test nation picks a player in that position that is so unreliable, to play the BIL.

Statistics!

played plenty of 1st grade last year I thought?

Depends totally on how soon they need him.....

HE DID AT 1/2 TIME!

What the fuck? What are you watching? They won the stats easy!

What is proposes as a third tier is a fucking disgrace.It is just spin. 5 Academy teams playing under 10 length games. Look at the NPC, Or the Currie cup.That is what a 3rd tier comp looks like. Either do it properly or do nothing. Don't waste money on an empyu gesture, just so you can bullshit...

The issue is not being handled concurrently.The only change has been with the short term superficial approach. The long term structural thing? I suppose the Sydney GPS comp now goes for 2 rounds,maybe that's the answer? That last bit was my idea of a joke BTW.

I thought the issue was that the ARU has allowed an increase in the number of foreigners for next year. Not that some foreigners have served a valuable role with some franchises.
