Australian Rugby Union announce $9.19 million turnaround March 26, 2009 The Australian Rugby Union has announced an extraordinary $9.19 million turnaround in its financial fortunes for the 2008 calendar year. The ARU says it has recorded a surplus of $712,000, wiping a much-publicised...

Fellas, Here's an open invite - if you've got a blog-style post in you (or even an idea for one) we'd love to get it up on the front page for the world to see. "What's the difference between a blog post and a forum post?" Good question. Not sure I fully know myself, but I think the rule of...

Fucking hell. Eddie Jones making sense twice in a week. What's going on? From here: http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/rugby/rugby-union/international/the-wallabies-secrets-of-our-success-1017669.html The Wallabies: Secrets of our success Australia, who play England tomorrow, are the great...

Which nation is the international hate figure of world rugby? Is it South Africa with Bakkies Botha as their poster boy? Is it the Kiwis with their annoying win record and ignorance of breakdown laws? Is it England with their traditional cluelessness with the ball in hand? Or is it the...

40 minutes in and I gotta say Wayne Barnes has got the Kiwis number at the break down. Wonder how he would've got on with McCaw on the park...

Wallabies not eyeing Cup revenge: Baxter November 8, 2008 - 12:31PM Some teammates will disagree, but Australia's most-capped prop insists revenge is not on the menu for the Wallabies as they turn their attention to next Saturday's showdown with England at Twickenham. After Italy, the...

Is Hoiles hearing him right? I reckon Deans means "get off the wing and start doing a forwards job". Not sure 5kgs has anything to do with it.

(Most) refs are people and therefore never perfect. Also, the better you play, the less their performance matters. However, the display on Saturday in Hong Kong from Alan Lewis was a turd of such heinous proportions that it's not only floated a media stink, it's also prompted me to check out who...

With the bitter taste of defeat having receded a little (it's gone from vomit in mouth to stinging heartburn) I've started to reflect on some of the more positive developments in the Wallabies play that we saw in Hong Kong. The four training camps since the last Bledisloe - labelled by...

Here are my thoughts on the Australia player ratings. A slightly different slant to Noddy's 3-2-1 thread (great idea) which I didn't want to clutter. Do these tally with what you saw? Rating scale at bottom. 15 Adam Ashley-Cooper A lot of talent but still not a fullback. Kicking game still...

Someone needs to remind the Wallabies that there are two halves in a match of rugby. Yet again they came out playing the better attacking rugby, scoring two tries to nil in the first 40, to then look and play like walking zombies for the rest of the game. The recipe for success in the first...

Anyone convinced?

For some reason this tour feels more of a benchmark for how the Wallabies have progressed than the tri-nations this year. From a results perspective, the only way we could have shown any improvement in the tri-nations was by letting in one less soft try in Brisbane and win the thing. But on this...

Two parts of the team left to review and I can't draw it out any longer so I'm gonna lump the two into this post. Kinda like ripping off a bandaid. The second row and outside backs Like everyone else I was f?cking gutted when Big Kev Horwill went down with a foot injury - for SIX bloody months...

The other day I started on an unfortunate negative note with a look at the questions hanging over the Wallaby front row that will be answered in the Northern Hemisphere. Today, so as not to overly compound the depression from our spanking in the last cricket test against India, I turn to a...
