I think next year we'll be ok for locks. Horwill and Simmons are both very good, then you have AWH and (possibly) Van H and then you've got McDuling - who I think would've made some big strides this year and will hopefully make them next year. Thorn would either be taking a Wallaby's spot in the...

Bruce, for someone who often defends his right to lampoon and satire others I find it pretty rich that a difference of opinion on Tom Carter is "abuse and ridicule". Though I find your indignation ironic, I have to say that I never said he "dodges being in a situation where he is called upon to...

Well I guess with such scientific calculations he couldn't possibly do 2KM more than that.

I thought the point of what he was saying was that you could have 1 specialist and two people who can switch in your squad and have more ideal coverage on the day than 3 specialists? Logical and no big deal.

I think that's a pretty simplistic breakdown of the numbers. Keep in mind he is always running support lines, chasing the ball, running decoy lines, constantly changing his positioning (as required of a fullback) in defence. I have definitely heard it's around 10-12km a game and wouldn't be...

Keep in mind that missed tackle stats only include those you were in a position to make Bruce. I know they suit your point right now, but you could surely agree that numbers don't tell the whole story? I note, for example, that you haven't been defending McCalman's selection based on stats.

Didn't Slim Jnr start this stupid argument anyway?

I was only referring to this season. I can't recall whether he was injured much or at all last year but it hasn't really seemed to stand out.

Because he's been injured twice?

That's not necessary slim. I had nothing to do with the game.

Very pleased with the result.

Who gives the best massages, Slim or Mudskipper?

I'm surprised you feel that way.

Yeah, I think if Lucas isn't playing they'll either straight swap Quade and Digby as they have before or slide everyone in one with Ioane to 13, Morahan to wing and Quade to fullback. Quade offers so much on counterattack he really needs to be at 15 on D.

Might have to just wait and see on that one.

Making some uncharacteristic mistakes though.

I don't understand the lack of a card for Hooper there. I mean, I'm glad he wasn't but there's just no consistency.

Good on 'im.
