No can't agree with u (and neither does the IRB). The standard in the Oceania and World Cup is much higher than the NRC. The nrc for me has not emulated the mitre 10 cup in nz and I would feel it is actually the elephant in the room. In addition I think that Australia and NZ owe the region...

I don't think there is a problem at 10. Stewart is very capable Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Do u mean in how many games they play in a Super Rugby side? The answer to that is no they can play all the Super Rugby they like and still be eligible to play in the wc. There are quite a few from nz and sa that play most their rugby in Super Rugby. The main difference is that nz release many more players for Oceania...

Give us a hint highlander? What do u know? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thought swain was fairly unlucky; lonergan was thereabouts but up against three other pretty handy halves. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well done lee for another unbiased and worthy comments. Would love to help you with a comment for the big cheese; but is it really that hard for me to log in!! Ahh! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I might be slow but yr saying Thompson still has a large influence in team selection?? If that's the case Cron needs to take charge. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gee Quade's having another blinder tonight; terrible general play kicking, missed tackles, missing in defence, poor conversion kicks, got it all. What a champion keep talking him up. what a dud Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think Hooperts injured Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

At this stage I think it's worth giving all the combinations a run; Give them all a go as a true trial. Most bundits expect Australia to loose this one, so let's go for a full trial. There's only upside in this cry for help Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well u should read more of my comments then. Oh yes Quade is better than Michael. Btw I was there and yr point?? Oh yes Quade won the title for the Reds?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

His best days are behind him. I don't think qld has had a startling 10 since Michael lynagh. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No they don't, however money does pass from the aru to the state franchises, in a similar fashion as the federal gov. does to the states; so there is some influence on policy and direction. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No like your point, particularly playing as much competitive rugby as possible (pre & prem colts). I was watching Brothers v UQ on the weekend with T Shaw and we discussed exactly that point. Whilst UQ dominated, the level of rugby was solid, fast and skilled, everything a young rooster would...

Nah disagree with ya. ANY test match is more important than any Super Rugby event (except possibly Super Rugby semi/final). This is not me talking it's the IRB. So they must think it's important. A test match is a test match irrespective of age etc. They are (test matches) particularly more important...

Well it goes along with your "hope" line; I just preempted you.

You may be right, however when did he get clear air to pass? Didn't really get too many opportunities to pass as you wished for, and yes most of them weren't taken. Maybe the coach is thinking of Jooste at#12? Hunt did make one or two breaks/half breaks but no support and wasn't clean. Still...

Yep a serious amount of work to do within say 21 days!

Well that was interesting. Fiji played a lot better than they did against the kiwi's; actually made tackles and ran with purpose. They worried the Aussie boys out of a lot of ball. O'k out of the first two games, a couple of big things to work on: long thrown line-outs, have not worked at...

True that, but Fraser too young and Connor too old. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
