Can't argue against Burgess having an erratic pass; anyone remember the pass over the dead ball line in France? There's still a lot of time for Burgess. I dont think he will replace Genia, but if Burgess corrected his pass and built momentum and confidence, he would be the sort of player a...

Interesting stuff, RH. If they fuck up this awesome oppurtunity, fans will be baying for blood. By which I mean I will be baying for blood. Heads will roll.

Well, TBH, I hope so. I think it's possible he'll end up like Smit, but really he deserves a good deal.

"You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain"

Smith left at his peak. When Richie has to bow out at the point of his career where John Smit is now, George's plan will look a lot better.

You're exaggerating for effect, right?

Not quite, WJ isn't so vocal about Wallabies matters.

He's not that bad. He's just not up to Test footy.

Oh come on. Turn in your Male Sex Membership card on your way out...

Don't turn into a Waratahs version of Reddy, #1 Tah.

Yeah it was in SA, but we got smashed the following week. 2008 Australia 27-15 Durban 2008 South Africa 53-8 Johannesburg

Good response, I love being resigned to expecting defeat. :fishing Parity. Thats all they need. Genia's playing well; get the ball in and out as fast as you can. If the 2nd rowers and the backrow (to a lesser extent) can stop the scrum moving backwards too much, all the front row needs to...

Interesting that the question of Cooper's suspension being thrown out was raised to Deans in a press conference; he said that they had been and are preparing with the expectation that Cooper would be unavailable for this match and would only consider adding him to the side if the suspension was...

I wrote before that it didn't look like the front rowers Deans blooded in atrocious fashion in the June tests had shown any improvement or benefit from the experience. However, seeing Ma'afu's progress, I think that the horrid performances against the English followed by weeks of elite level...

I assume because their last call was in Queensland.

Easy, Paarl. Not Aussies, the Victorian AFL cant maintain a proper playing surface.

Only at Etihad. Grade teams seem to go alright, and really you'd only need to schedule one game. Shute Shield teams usually have three games preceding the 1st Grade game and they seem to do fine in terms of surface suitability.

You've got to feel for Juan Smith, he's been out of action for a long while on compasionate grounds. Has he returned to playing rugby at any level?

Genia came off the bench in NZ and SA last year, if that counts.

So, to the all important question; From what you saw of the people at the game, would they be likely to go to another game? Did the majority of people look like they enjoyed the experience? Also, how was the grog?
