Did Tom Carter just join the forum? Welcome Tom! And we appreciate that you no longer do the Monkey Cloud. I'll be the first to admit that Carter is improving, but his history at 12 for the two previous seasons isn't good as far as attacking is concerned. Fair enough he may have been following...

Dunno if I am available, the GF had said something about going somewhere to watch the game at a friend's place (guys watch, girls do whatever girls do during a game of rugby). I'll double check if anything was actually sorted.

I wonder if his future / Rebels stuff has been playing on his mind as well this season.

I'm available for tips and elocution lessons. Talking like a Queenslander101. Might finally need to get a new Reds jersey too like a good little bandwagon hopper... The old one is geting a bit tight. When QC (Quade Cooper) got binned you could see he knew exactly what an idiot he is. Deserves a good chewing...

Eddie Jones has a great analytical mind. The secret is to keep him the hell away from the players and press. White knew the score.

I can't see how the Force could win it. Bulls would need to turn up thinking they've already won.

Re: Tahs v Blues Yup, that is pretty much what I was trying to say. Where the Tahs have really struggled in the past is getting the ball wider. When their forwards create space by rumbling over the advantage line, in the past they have turned it into another forward. This year they have...

Gits at 12...well I never. Glad to see it.

Dunno Gagger, I doubt it though outside of a rare game or playing out the game there. Tim Davidson has held down the 8 position at Syd Uni very well for a long time, and they've had other very able players able to fill in there too like McKutcheon (elder). Bruce or Cyclo might know better than...

Some are more equal than others...

Re: Tahs v Blues The Tahs are 4 from 6: - Very lucky scratchy win vs the Reds - Bad loss to Stormers, who are one of the top sides are this stage - Accounted for themselves well in a loss to the Bulls, who are the top team at this stage - Very lucky scratchy win vs the Sharks, who were in...

Re: Tahs v Blues It was more the manner of some of the Tahs' victories - that is, lucky and/or barely scraping it in. As the Brumbies showed, when you're struggling to win and not clicking, when you finally play one of the better teams like the Blues it becomes that much harder to win. Hence...

Mowen was originally an 8 before switching to 6 at the Tahs.

Which is amazing, as it was the bench (and the scrum) that won the Tahs the game against the Reds. That Tahs bench had more class than the Force bench, amazed it wasn't used better, especially with half the team struggling.

I won't believe Gits will be at 12 until I see it. Anyone else suspect that Gits insists on the 10 jumper?

Has Sills been sighted much at the Adelaide 7s? McCutcheon and Gill also looked alright in the games I saw. I know it's been mentioned a fair bit, but Gill looked a lively sort but looks like he needs to be a little bigger for the S14.

Although I used to be, now I am not a fan of those types of positional switches. Most players get into a different head space when swapping positions like that, and often struggle to produce the same kind of game. Hooker to number 8 is indeed quite tricky, as you would move from throwing to...

Friend also did a better job with the Brumbies last year than Hickey did with the Tahs.

Gambler, I think you are being too harsh - Stanford did get himself involved in the game. I remember seeing him drop the ball a few times.

His picking up the ball and hovering with it around the ruck was dire.
