Is that Benn Robinson?

"not quick enough" is a pretty poor claim to make. He used very good pace off the mark to put Rocky in for a try in the Bloem game, and used some decent pace scoring in Sydney. He has had hiccups under the high ball, but so have Mitchell and Beale. You paint the picture like "There is no...

One thing I have noticed occurring a lot lately is team's benched players hanging around in the in goal area. I'm going to say it bluntly: I hate this. In this video around the 2:16 mark, the players have strolled over halfway into the in goal area. What are the ref's doing? Shouldn't there...

To add to cyclo's post, I think a lot of the games when the Tah's have played "boring" or "ugly" football, the conditions or opposition have not allowed the sort of rugby everyone thinks the Reds play.

Injury doesn't enter into it! All those you named are already signed up, some at the Force even. The only outside back I think they could've got who isn't signed on would be John Grant, but I think he's in the Tah's academy anyway. There's only three outside backs in the Wallabies. I think...

Like who? I mean, a lot of the outside backs that are of Super quality are already tied up at other clubs. Smith's got good potential and already has Super experience. Not the best signing ever, but it's a decent one.

At this early stage, what are the general opinions on Josh Holmes vs Brendan McKibben? I'd be more inclined to start McKibben. I like Holmes, but he hasn't exactly set the world alight. Maybe it's time to give him a shot at 12 at the Super level, although this is now more difficult as Cross...

They'll spell their epithets incorrectly.

I'd play: 1. Robinson 2. Moore 3. Alexander 4. Sharpe 5. Chisholm 6. Elsom 7. Pocock 8. McCalman 9. Burgo 10. Cooper 12. Barnes 13. Ashley-Cooper 11. Mitchell 14. Turner 15. Beale

I thought they were saying Habana looked sharp in the CC?

P.S. Quade rocked up with Steph Rice; presumably as a South African deterrent.

My memory is quite poor. Has Mitchell ever hit form like this year?

Blue, just use the spots and say you work in the web department. How strong are the G&GR / ARU links?

From my experience a New Zealander would say "detch" not "dutch". Yeah, I'm still touchy because of the ROTY Award...

What's the story for your lot when they come down here?

Seems the Reds got a bit Tah'd back in round one... Ah, I can't wait for the Super season to come round. Provincialism rocks.

Pretty good HJ, but I'd take Mils and The Headshot. They've both been quite incredible this year.

It SHOULD be Lions (England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales) vs Barbarians (SA, Aus, NZ, Fr and the Argie Bargies) Then the Pacific Islanders. Then they play the Tahs in Sydney.

Lineout has been poor without Sharpe, but the lineout has been worse than this year. Shouldn't Quade's tackling be more part of Quade's check list? Sure, Deans is an influence, but Quade's gotta take responsibility for his own shortcomings.
