Happy to see Tupou there and looking like he is training and not in some sort of Rebab group. Really need him fit and firing. Poreki back is positive and Joseph in there hopefully adds a bit of excitement to the group, bringing in a couple of overseas players will hopefully add more...

I would like to see Sua'ali'i start against Bristol on November 8th and England A on Nov 17th. Then if he completely dominates quickly transfer him over to the Wallabies squad for the last 2 tests. Would rather see him play than hold tackle bags for the main squad. That same strategy...

Only watched 20 min highlights but seemed like a pretty good performance, always good for team bonding to get an away win. A lot of quality to come in to the team later as well so hopefully building for a good 2025

Yes they do need to be careful they don’t fall into a similar position as they have in the past where the “A” team is getting plenty of game time, then Australia A is basically the “C” team and you end up with all these guys in the middle not getting game time anywhere as they are on fringe of...

And can you clarify for me, why is this happening at the same time as the super rugby under 19 comp? Wouldn’t there be a crossover of some players? I am from WA so might be missing something with the pathways over East

Don’t forget champion de Crespigny, started 40 odd games in top 14 so must be alright

Would be keen to see Harry Potter involved if he does well on the forces tour. Champion De Crespigny might be worth a look as well And definitely edmed but I would put him with the main squad, just watched his last game for nth Harbour, was all class

The pre-meditated substitutions shit me off as well. Gleeson should have come on for Wilson, not Valetini. Flook should have come on for Kellaway not Pietsch and Donaldson should have got more than 5 minutes. Plus Tupou never should have stayed out there that long, if they are not...

Really liked what Gleeson brought off the bench last week, hopefully he backs that up this week as he has the potential to be devastating in that role. Otherwise would like to see Leota take that role when fit.

Yes I think it would be good and as it develops then you could build on the champions league format by adding teams from Japan, Jaguares etc or the Saffas might want back in.

I think they need to try and have domestic comps and then tap into the “champions league” type idea they do in Europe with soccer and rugby eg aus - 6 team comp incl Fiji - 10 rounds home and away plus grand final to decide winner Nz - 6 team comp incl Samoa - as above Then followed by...

Yeah I think Lote was better than Rogers. Rogers was good but not as good as a lot make out, there were a lot of games Latham should have been picked ahead of him

Yeah we deserve to be where we are but I still think if we played Italy and Fiji 10 times we would win at least 8.

Great idea, might make us sound like sore losers pushing for this now but it makes perfect sense, if the wallabies could win by 4 this week to take the bledisloe it would have a much bigger build up and more interest

Frustrating because that game was certainly there to be won, all blacks were not great. With the 2nd test in Wellington we won’t get many better chances to win the bled. Anyway was expecting this week to be a lot worse so that is one thing. Agree with others, nothing to lose giving toole...

Also have Matt Proctor @ 13 (Kuenzle out most of year) and Divad Palu

Kimlin was playing half back in third grade for Cottesloe in WA this year. World's biggest halfback

This guy is in the squad for Sth Africa tour - Patelesio Tomkinson. Has played 22 games for Highlanders in Super Rugby as a centre/winger Also Isaac Ratumaitavuki-Kneepkens could be a gun and we need more wingers. I can't see us signing Beale again if he is going to miss most of the...

Frustrating that Pasitoa and Moli still injured. Not sure if Moli will ever take the field for us and Pasitoa hopefully comes right. Looking forward to seeing the new players and first 2 games are on Stan

Just watched highlights of last years bledisloe game 2. We played very well, got a good lead and should have won . Then everything went to shit after that. Only about 6 in the starting lineup still starting now so a big change. Tom Hooper looked like a standout at 6, I think we should be...
