You have got to be fucking kidding me !!! The replays showed Fourie's tackle was the biggest non-event in history. How the fuck was Fourie's tackle even a penalty, let alone a fucking yellow is farking beyond me. And Cooper's was nothing much either - What a load of horseshit. Richie McCaw...

Why doesn't Greg Growden have to apologise then ? What he's written is worse. Growden should apologise for breathing..for having been born..for having arms strong enough to pull himself out of the bucket.

Pick the name of our forum members from a hat and you'd do better for Wallaby coach. Deans has stolen Matt Williams' 4 year plan. He's won people over with blooding young kids is all. Not good enough. This team deadset tours with their teddy bears. We need to harden the fuck up !

3 losses in a row isn't that unusual for them is it ?

Double post. Please ignore.

Its par for the course with the SMH's moronic "chief rugby correspondent". Growden seems to think the SMH rugby audience care about Growden's gruelling life as a rugby journo. Which is why you will see entire articles complaining about how a rugby captain/coach is a tough/great interview and...

I'm thinking our pack is pretty mediocre and we need some serious firepower in the backs to overcome that. Solid backs don't really cut it for me at the moment, I'm looking for gamebreakers all over the park. I want guys who can create and finish long range tries. Shep's pretty solid. He's...

We kill in Queensland. Boks have nothing and been exposed ! Wallabies by 20 !! Who's with me ?

What alternate universe did I wake up in ? What has Shepherd ever done ? He can finish tries on the wing from 20 metres out, that's about it.

You're not the only one searching for answers mate, there's a lot of us scratching our heads trying to figure it out. Only Wallaby insiders would be able to offer an answer. I worry when I see quotes like the one from Matt Giteau the other day- "Hopefully our next game is the one where it...

Would like to see Romania there. They gave us a tough 1st half in the 95 RWC. I'm so pissed Tunisia qualified through instead of the more deserving mad Moroccans, who crushed them recently 23-6. Poor Morocco. They always seem to fall at the last hurdle and have been so unlucky. It'd be...

I side with Gnostic on this one. Our problem is more basic - a lack of aggression, fire & intensity. You've either got that fire in the belly or you don't. It should be fairly easy for Wallaby coaches to spot, and cull where it is lacking. Get the blokes with the 'right stuff' in. Then get let...

I'm not sure Giteau is up to 1st grade club footy. You'd have to bring him along slowly, best to start him in 3rds I'd say.

Louw is listed at the Boks website as 114 kgs. The key for the Bok flankers really is that the Boks didn't defend like the Stormers. Harder to pilfer when you are making grasping desperation tackles rather than pouring into the tackle zone with the ball carrier being driven backwards. The Kiwi...

Interesting article by Bob but he's kind of missing the point. The All Blacks won because they won the physical contests. And its not about numbers, its about physicality, intensity and aggression. Quick clean ball is the prize for winning the contest. With quick clean ball, you get over the...

West Harbour's discipline was poor. If you abuse the referee, don't expect any favours. Bit of a scrappy game. I thought Easts' all openside backrow did well at disrupting Wests' ball but lacked oomph in the ball running. Some nice touches by Cross & Edmonds and Lester 'Twinkletoes' Salanoa's...

He's really put his hand up with the kick re-starts, its not glamorous but its vital pill. Agree on the 6/lock thing, he's well suited there. I think Lee calls those guys halflings. I'd say part of the frustration with Mumm is he's been brought along brilliantly by Wallaby coaches &...

The passion was numbed by watching too many insipid Wallabies performances. Followed by headscratching at how blokes who may only get 1 shot at test rugby don't fire up. I'll fess up. I was on the Dean Mumm bandwagon. I claimed over ago he was the answer to our blindside problem. And he...

Harden up. This is a forum. Debate, opion & passion is healthy. Bagging crap players is on topic. Personal attacks on fellow posters is not on but a little bit of niggle (and stirring of Queenslanders) is plain good fun. Some of us, ie: real Australians, happen to love brutal honesty. That...

I've seen that game a few times. The pick and go, with Jim Williams and Kef, is impressive, as are the offloads and speed of ruck ball. Jason Little did a great job at 12, making ground and half breaks. We don't have the dynamic ball runners these days. Rod Macqueen lost that game by...
