Argentinean rugby has come along enormously this year with wins against South Africa and Ireland as well as pushing Australia and New Zealand close in tough matches. The single biggest area of improvement has been in their backplay: they've finally discovered those blokes wearing jumpers from 11...

Are there any Welshmen left standing for this match? Could one of the resident boyos put up a suggested red team.

If England have to select their best team in an attempt to stay alive in the RWC Cheika's choice of two teams may prove to be a master-stroke. Although I doubt very much we'll see the same players in the 10 and 12 white jumpers come next Sunday.

Can the Canes gain redemption for the poor finals' efforts all those years ago? Can the Ponies get over their (considerable) jet-lag?

I'll get the title altered when our opponent's sorted. Tahs can't play the Ponies in their semi while the Canes can't play the Stormers. At this stage I'd choose the Stormers for this match, they've got the furthest to travel of this three allied with the better chance of a Kiwi side cleaning...

The Force have further to go to attend this match in Perth than the Tahs! It would seem Foley's shortcomings are starting to affect the Force's performances. A shame. A very good 2IC with responsibility for the pigs, a poor head coach.

version 1.0 10 weeks down, eight to go and the wheat's now sorted out from the chaff. I've listed the teams in strict points order as there's little point in adjusting it for conference leaders at this stage. Also, away fixtures are highlighted in italics. The numbers after the teams are...

First game, and on a Sunday arvo, who's going? Beers before the game?

Rams playing at Ballymore that round, Rays at Brookvale and the Stars at Leichhardt. Anyone interested in a trip to the central west?

Brookvale Oval on Thursday night, who's going? It's the only game in Sydney this round.

You've all got your tickets by now I hope. Once again Pfitzy, Braveheart and I (and fatprop?) will be guaranteeing victory by downing a few hop-flavoured sparkling waters before the game, for which space has been booked at The Clock in Surry Hills. However, the manager wants to get an idea of...

I hesitate to add to Reds supporters' misery ATM, but, IF the Tahs win next weekend the Reds will've lost to all four Australian opponents at Suncorp this year. Home games, you've gotta win 'em.

I'm off to Melbourne on Friday morning, business travel of course. waratahjesus is also making the trip, business for him as well. We shall receive visitors at the Turf Bar pre-match on Friday arvo. Please wear lounge suits with medals, hats and gloves for ladies.
