You must hate the Wallabies.

Why? With Beale at 15 and JOC (James O'Connor) at 14 you have 4 distributors in the backline (Cooper, Genia). Someone's got to take the ball forward the hard way. Besides, Horne has the offloading game that AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) doesn't. I'm a big Barnesy fan, but someone has to finish the moves that the distributors set up...

I'm pretty sure he's Jimmy Cowan off the field too. :trollface

RH, you're appealing to ignorance. You don't know that Giteau is being picked for those reasons. For all we know, he's a commanding presence on the field with regards to setting up the attacking plays. You never know, he may well be in charge of the backline attack. Chill out and tone down...

Can they both lose?

And Toeava should have proper 13mm studs sewn onto his feet ::). (To be fair, the Honker's surface got torn up something shocking on the weekend)

He's already got a try at wing.

Pleasure doing business with you ;)

1. It was a vague attempt to win the ball after the whistle had been blown, but I was comparing it to the Cooper kicking incident anyway. 2. He probably thought "There's the ball, I'll try and get it." first, then thought "This'll get under his skin... :D". 3. When? You probably did, but an...

Kiwi's weren't so keen on the contact aspect of the game when Bakkies used his noggin earlier in the year.

Rocky is almost as fast as a centre, chuck him at 12.

Will Genia, James O'Connor and Drew Mitchell have all been called up. Matt Giteau also got a call up. This gives me the shits because it shows that he is still considered an exciting, classy player. Maybe the only place in the world that thinks he should be dropped and banished is this...

This surprises you?

Crowley is worth 10 Kearns and about 40 Marto's. I rate Bray as well, but not when he brings in the uninteresting unrelated stats/facts.

Graham Henry gets good bloke status from me. In the post-match press conference McCaw seemed a bit... well, cut. As you would be, losing out in such a tough test. And at the death. But Henry was gracious in defeat and gave credit to both sides where it was due. Even when they won in Sydney and...

If Wales play like they did against the Scots in the 6Ns this year they'll be cannon fodder for the Aussies. First things first; squad predictions. Have a go, ya mugs. P.S. Any G&GR boots on the ground for this one?

Didn't Gus Gould discourage players from tackling the traditional way because he thought it led to more shoulder injuries? He preferred his players used shoulder charges. Get a flyhalf to teach him. No one knows the position better than someone who has played the position.

The team from the last time we beat NZ.

What, dreadlocks ala classic George Smith? :lmao: In all seriousness, it would be interesting to see if Saia has been a seven would he be challenging for the Wallabies. Reminds me of something LG was saying ages ago about wishing Phil Waugh had been taken aside and converted into a hooker...

Funny that, I did. Goal kicking is still a huge issue. Did we get 2 from 8? I'm sure everyone here wants the Wallabies to be the best team in the world; the best team in the world wouldn't miss 6 goals.
