It's also an alternative means (and by no means should it be used in all circumstances) of implementing a driving maul. If you only have one or two men at the front, the opposition must pack against them front on or they enter from the side. As soon as the front is stopped, the next guys split...

I imagine his mind is telling him he can do it and his body will shortly tell him he can't. I hope it doesn't happen. I also hope none of the other names mentioned return to the Brumbies except, perhaps, Craig Wing. It might be interesting to see what he is capable of. Far better in my view to...

Interesting use of the word correct. A lovely, albeit unnecessary, disclaimer there as well. Worker's Compensation is strict liability. If you suffer an injury in the workplace, there is a statutory scheme to ensure you are able to recieve damages on a set scale (and subject to obvious...

We have a bevy of bush lawyers on here don't we. The fact that damages are paid out in respect of a loss which gives rise to, for example, a statutory claim and a claim in negligence, is not a defence to liability under either claim. They may reduce the amount of damages recoverable in the...

Ex Manly. Not sure where he's been the last few years.

People have short memories. The Twickenham debacle when Baxter was sin binned for not being a competent scrummager burns in my memory. "Never again" I said to myself as I set out on a quest to identify barrel chested, short legged, stocky female breeders for my Front Row Farm. Having collected...

Is Foley back this week? He's a surprisingly important part of the Tahs backline. If so, I would play: 9 McKibbin 10 Barnes 11 Paka 12 AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) 13 Horne 14 Betham 15 Foley AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) would offer everything Carter offers plus better speed (so he won't get beaten on the outside by the likes of Fruen) and...

This just makes me fear the international season.

Unfortunately for Campo, one of his not really attempted tackles lives on in the lead up to "that" tackle.

Coonabarabran is another who had a tremendously strong team in the early eighties which played in the Central North competition. Some of their battles with Quirindi (the Dave Carter led Quirindi), Narrabri, Moree, Gunnedah, Pirates et al were fierce. They had two or three country players around...

Check their record in '96. They may have won a game that year.

Kingi to Reds? When is he off contract?

Feel free to put this somewhere else. I think it probably deserves its own thread. One of my favourite non-Wallaby players.

He played fullback in colts. Andrew Gordon and Joel Wilson, two Mudgee boys I think, were in the centres.

Sauces?

Based on form this year, Hooper > Gill and would, in my view, be Pocock's back up. And, shock horror, Sheehan > Genia. Kepu > Slipper too.

This probably belongs in another thread, but does anyone really care what this bloke does? A press conference? Just sign the contract and get on with things lady-boy.

If they're good enough they'll make it. If they're not good enough they won't make it. It really is that simple.

Do you remember the Boks' game plan with Jake White at the helm? Kick it to the opposition and force mistakes. I havent seen any full Brumbies' games this year, but I wouldn't be surprised to see that they're working to a similar blue print.

Glad to hear Hooper is performing. He's not the next Pocock, he's the next George Smith (from the same club and province). I hope he reaches the same heights as both of them. We've been blessed with quality 7s in my lifetime.
