the endless kicking cooked us, however at no stage did they ever look like threating the fijian defensive line. I reckon if they had of tried to run we would have given away a turnover and Fiji would have scored, rendering us completely f**** as it would have taken away our bonus point.

Kearns would still be sitting in 2nd grade in todays era.

I read with interest on Linkdin that Joe Roff presented the jerseys to the team before our Fiji game. He also said that the team agreed that the Wallabies with a Fijian background would be more than welcome to sing both the Fijian and Australian anthems. I might be reading too much into this but...

I am aghast to attack players like Carter Gordon as it's not his decision to select himself. I believe his career is probably over based on his treatment. However it brings me to my point i absolutely HATE this ridiculous academy system that the super franchises have. I believe this is why we...

worthy of a yellow, however the no arms tackle by the Fijian 15 on Marika was a red all day of the week and twice on a sunday

There were also a number of instances where the Fijian player had is hands on the ground past the ball before raking his hands back onto the ball an being awarded a penalty. An absolutely horrid performance at the breakdown by the referee. He wouldn't give us the chance to play the ball yet when...

mate if the 16 year old is good enough he is old enough, some clubs in the Brisbane colts competition have 16 year olds playing 1st and 2nd grade colts.

Brisbane subbies is literally non existent. In Brisbane it is completely different to how its done in Sydney. QPR is the main comp with a lot of clubs having a 7th XV and some of the bigger clubs having 5thXV colts. A number of former Subbies clubs in Caboolture and Wynnum have left the Brisbane...

better than Vaihu as well. Vaihu is immensely overrated and a very selfish player highlighted by the last 2 minutes against England

no relation of mine, he is just a superior player than Bowen.

agree 100%. This is the point i have been trying to make. Just because he plays 1st Grade Shute Shield of Super Rugby doesnt make him amazing. He has been anointed as a wonderful player as a junior, time & money invested by HPU. If they dont continue with him along the pathways it means that the...

ive watched a couple, he might end up being a tremendous player however his performances at this tournament for a professional who has player super rugby have left me feeing underwhelmed. In my opinion very slow service from the ruck, he seems to wait an age before getting the ball away allowing...

HMP, is twice the player he is.

Harry Jones went to Kings then Barker and left school in 2014ish? Grammar were a basket case back in the 90's long before Harry was even born.

Let me preface what i am saying. I believe that have worked i probably phrased things incorrectly. I feel that they have been placed on a pedestal for what they have done as 14/15 year old. I feel that despite what others have done in those ensuing years these guys who were placed on the...

its not shitcanning, it is speaking the truth. he might have earnt a super rugby contract, it doesnt mean he deserves one. If we are to improve as a country we need to move away from the status quo.

not at all, just need the pathways program cleaned out so kids with actual ability at 19/20 are selected not because when they were 14/15 and bigger and stronger than their peers RA continues to persist with them.

incredibly poor all tournament

Bowen is the son of Scott Bowen, former Wallaby who is/was intwined in junior development. Yes in my opinion there are a dozen better 10's than him the most notable being Harry Mclaughlan Phillips who scored the last try and set up what should have been the match winner only for another of the...

he has been horrible this tournament
