While I can't say this squad fills me with joy, most of the changes that people are discussing would largely be tinkering around the edges. Phipps is the third-choice 9 and might not even play in any of the tests, so even if you reckon he sucks I don't understand being mad about the selection...

Loig would not have been happy if they'd lost SBW and Folau in a few short months. I'm sure all the stops were pulled out.

I really thought AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) was going to clock him. Remarkable restraint from Two Dads.

I enjoyed Gekko's rant. It had that tent preacher vibe from the American south. I could see him holding up snakes and speaking in tongues.

Yep, got it the second time. First time it didn't load all my info correctly. Nice work, Ticketek.

NSW are offering an expanded part payment plan this year too, although I didn't note the details. They are also giving a discount to renewing members, although I'm not sure what the rate is exactly -- I think it was $20 or $25 off my platinum membership.

That one's got a bright future in Australia rugby administration.

You get a loyalty discount if you're renewing your membership. That's a really nice move. Kudos to the Tahs.

My renewal process is working now. Better pay before it farks up again!

I've just logged onto the website to try and while they have my old seats in the membership history section, the "renew same seats" function doesn't work and when I try to use the "Fast Renewal" I get told my seats will be "GA". WTF? I sure as hell am not renewing online and then getting...

I'm trying really hard not to throw my hands up at Link's selections so far, but that's getting harder and harder. Our pack has been atrocious through 5 games and yet remains largely unchanged. Players who have made an impact off the bench -- Ben Mc, Robinson, Timani -- remain there while guys...

Kurindrani was bad. Okay. So you didn't watch the game then?

Absolutely. Such a shame he got hurt. But the point remains that he hasn't been great in Gold -- yet. I thought 2013 would be the year and the Lions the stage. Sadly not to be.

Even further OT, here's a rather interesting article on that issue.

Higgers hasn't dominated for the Wallabies yet. At test level, IMO, he's been better at 6 than 8. His form for the Rebs at 8 suggest that might be ready to change, but I don't think we can assume that 8 is his best international position. Injury free, I see our back row as 6. Higgers 7. Pocock...

It really does sound like the playing group needs to take this into their own hands and decide to make changes. Right now, the culture sounds fairly, ummm, toxic.

Welcome to professional sport. But even leaving aside the box office issue, there are some good reasons why Mowen does not have an ARU top up. First, he's only been in the Wallabies this year and while he's had a few solid games and captained the side, he's not a sure-fire starter with...

You could be onto something there, Gaggs. Do you think this is a leadership issue? Do senior players need to step up? If this were the NFL, you'd be reading about players only meetings and all kinds of get-our-shit-in-order efforts. We don't seem to hear about that stuff, although it might...

And now this thread will evaporate in a puff of logic! :rolleyes:

FIRE ROBBIE DEANS!!!!!
