I agree, we are running out of time to see if some of these players will cut it for the world cup so we need to see some proper game time not token minutes at the end.

They suggest it was an ankle injury and he should be almost recovered. I also think the overseas player rules are very flexible and if Eddie wanted him he could have still picked him regardless of the signing. Great for the force though Gives wallabies great cover though knowing that these...

I really hope they start gleeson at 7 next week, that will be something to look forward to

Yep crazy and you would like to think that anybody willing to pay that much for a waiting list would already be a stan sport subscriber!

Like it, hope that is what we get. I think Hooper might come back in though

Yeah I think it still depends on performance. If we get flogged twice I can see a couple of these getting swapped in, possibly Fainga'a and Wilson

I think the decision to leave out Samu is purely because Eddie wants to have a look at Gleeson. Gleeson has 2 chances (hopefully 1 off the bench and then 1 starting) to prove that he is the real deal. I would expect Samu to still make the world cup squad. Likewise I still expect Wright...

Western Force have released an identical offer just in Blue :) looks like consistent marketing/offer across all the clubs which is smart. I also had a look at the Wallabies first membership but the $1899 knocked me off my chair. Anyway bring it on, will be so good as long as we are...

I am happy if Eddie drops him to make a statement but agree I would rather keep him in the squad as a winger over Vunivalu. There is no justification for keeping Vunivalu in the squad.

I am 100% in agreement with your squad and 23. My concern is whether Eddie is too stubborn to not drop Vunivalu and Uelese completely out of the squad.

Obviously Gordon at 12 and Kerevi at 13 like the last match smartass

There are 5 possible options to replace Ikitau just in the original squad Eddie named so I wouldn’t think he will look outside of that (Perese/Foketi/Hodge/Petaia/Gordon). You could make an argument for any of them I think

Yep agree with this and then out of the hybrids (Holloway, Hanigan, Leota, LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto)) how many of them do you need? Just 2 I would say which would be Holloway and Leota. Gonna be some tough calls in the backrow as well (M Hooper, Mcreight, Samu, Gleeson, Kemeny, T Hooper) A couple of them...

I would normally agree that the World Cup is no hope this year, but we have been given a dream draw so that is our only positive that we could get it all together and at least make a semi and then who knows But like others have said, we have had 3 good coaches and results haven’t changed, we...

Kellaway can’t come back soon enough, hopefully next week, Wright needs to go. I would rather we just pick reliable hard working players like Harry Wilson, Cadryn Neville etc than keep picking “hopefuls” like Richie Arnold who do nothing Carter Gordon needs to be in the starting side as...

loved watching this team play, some seriously good backline tries. My 10 year old son is a halfback and I made him sit down and watch teddy Wilson’s game, brilliant player

Much happier with this team, no real bizarre Eddie selections this time. Look forward to seeing what this locking combo can do. Shame Kellaway not back. Hodge would give more versality at #23 and I think he will end up there for world cup but very happy we get to see more of Carter

Yeah Wilson on the bench is the head scratcher there, that guy is really getting shafted for whatever reason. Could have just played Uru at 6 and ditched Swinton. Also I wouldn't be writing Fainga'a off to get back in the Wallabies if he can get a good performance here, given no one...

In hindsight Eddie probably should have brought Arnold on instead of Samu when Hooper went off. Frost could have gone to 6 and then at least we would have had more than 1 lineout jumper for the rest of the game

I might have missed an explanation somewhere but what is the rationale for Tupou to be changing squads? What is the difference between playing vs Tonga as opposed to vs Argentina?
