He seems to Seagull a bit for the tahs. Has several tries this season just by hanging out on the wing. I suspect its part of the game plan for him but not sure its helping his selection chances

Great performance from the tahs. Just looked like they wanted it more than the brumbies. Didnt look as polished as they did against the force but just out-scrapped their opposition. Still not sold on their title prospects but i reckon theyll be tough to beat at home. Thought Tupou had his best...

Should have gone with my guts and put money on the saders...i couldnt work out why the saders were underdogs with the bookies

I got them impression from the most recent comments made by Phil Waugh that when the lions series arrives RA will be instructing Schmidt to pick his best squad from any players available, including those that are leaving next year, insisting that the number 1 priority is winning the series. I...

Yeh honestly I'd probably go with Swain over Skelton to. Better work rate, plays more minutes and his lineout work is excellent

Don't get me wrong, I agree with Skelton being in the squad, but I'd be pretty surprised if he's in the run-on side for game one. Other than what he brings to maul defence, I would say a guy like Frost is superior in most other aspect of play (lineout, defence, workrate, support play, ability to...

I think BPA has looked really good for the force - has been doing a lot of the heavy lift. I would definitely give him the inside track on the number 2 spot for now based on his test experience.

I must say I've never been a big believer in the Max Jorgenson hype but he look like a world beater this season. Hooper and Uru have also caught my eye. Both should be in the frame for a bench spot against the Lions at this rate.

A lot of people on here shitting on tupou but i actually thought it was one of, if not his best performance around the park this season. Fitness is still a major issue but i thought he was pretty effective until about the 30 minute mark, as opposed to last week when he was seagulling with hands...

A few things from this game that stood out:- 1. O'Donnell was a machine. He's definitely got my attention now. 2. Tupou looks badly out of form. IMO it's quite obviously it's a direct result of his poor fitness. Hands on hips 10 minutes in, rushing out of the line to make a hit and missing...

Congrats to the brumbies! Really enjoyed the game, wasnt the pretty game ever but that lack of scoring in the second half reflected how physical both sides were in defence. Thought the brumbies were deserved winners at the end of the day.. the blues looked a bit directionless in the second half...

excuse my ignorance, but what's up with Tom Wright?

Not sure where's you're getting those odds but I'd get on them at $1.85

Tahs heavy favourite with the bookies - they really can't afford to fuck this one up. Lots of talent on paper. I'm really intrigued to see what they can produce.

Will Saturday's trial be streamed / broadcast anywhere?

We need a Christmas miracle. Might have to pop down and see the local Mall Santa

We're building some nice depth in the side but we are still only an injury or two away from not being able to compete with the lions in certain areas of the game....id say we can least afford to lose tupou and bell...id really like to see there work load managed in the lead up. Id also put...

Whether skelton is in the starting side or not i would now confidently say that your picking the pack on the basis of wilson/val/mcreight are your starting backrow. The calls to bench wilson to make way for skelton should be over

I tend to agree that based at the type of game we are developing and looking at the games where i think we played our best footy, i probably dont have skelton in our best 15. Thats said schmidt might see things differently. To be fair to skelton, im not sure you can blame the lineout woes from...
