I’m not surprised a Tahs supporter hasn’t rushed in to start this thread, but thought a Brumbies one would have started it last Saturday! Anyway, here it is.

I believe we need to do this for completion: 3. Philip 2. Wright 1. AAA

Ab initio.

Wallabies by 101 to take the silverware.

A few team predictions for this sneaking through on the Bled 2 thread, so an opportune time to start this a couple of weeks out. Basis Bled 2 team. Assuming To'omua fit and no O/S players: 13 - OUT: Paisami, IN: Petaia 15 - OUT: Banks, IN: DHP 20 - OUT: Wright, IN: Samu 22 - OUT: Petaia, IN...

Do we expect a full dress rehearsal for England (likely)? I reckon we will from 6-15, the tight 5 is pretty set so we might leave a few of those blokes out of the danger zone for this match. positions under query IMO: 6 - Dempsey or LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) - Dempsey 9 - Genia or White - Genia 10 - Lilo, Foley...

Not sure if there is a proposed format for RWC threads, but assume Aussie games will have their own threads. Otherwise, don’t think it’s too early to start talking about this game!

We need something to talk about for the next week or so. I reckon: 1. Slipper 2. Fainga'a 3. Tupou 4. Coleman 5. Simmons 6. Dempsey 7. Pocock 8. Naisarani 9. Genia 10. Foley (C) 11. Petaia 12. To'omua 13. Kuridrani 14. Ashley-Cooper 15. Haylett- Petty 16. Uelese 17. Sio 18. Kepu 19. Arnold...

May as well get this one going early. Brumbies are undoubtedly the form Aussie side but the Waratahs are the perennial party spoilers when it comes to the Aussie derbies and are at home. Hopefully this one can draw a reasonable crowd. Head says Brumbies, heart says Tahs. Reckon it will be a...

Spring tour thread starting to talk of the line up for this game so thought it an opportune time to start the match thread..

Who are the smokies for the tour? Wouldn't really call him a smokie but I'd say they'll take Naisarani for development purposes, he can't get any game time though unless they organise an 'A' fixture. I'd be sending Kepu home for a rest after the AB's test, he needs the break ahead of the RWC...

While I'd be happy to see no change from the first test side I'd make the following minor adjustments: 1. Sio 2. Latu 3. Kepu 4. Coleman 5. Rodda 6. Samu 7. Hooper 8. Pocock 9. Genia 10. Foley 11. Koroibete 12. Beale 13. Kuridrani 14. DHP 15. Folau 16. BPA 17. Robertson 18. Tupou 19. Simmons...

My prediction: 1. Sio 2. Latu 3. Kepu 4. Coleman 5. Rodda 6. Tui 7. Hooper 8. Pocock 9. Genia 10. Foley 11. Koroibete 12. Beale 13. Kuridrani 14. DHP 15. Folau 16. Fainga'a 17. Robertson 18. Tupou 19. Simmons 20. Timu 21. Phipps 22. Hodge 23. Maddocks

3. Kepu 2. McMahon 1. Hooper (would have been 3 without the yellow) HM the backs given the conditions

SO Cheika has said we will be fielding our strongest possible team for all games on the tour. Do we think he includes this one in that statement or just the European matches?

Folau being rested for the tour, great move I reckon. I'd say DP will tour as an apprentice and I also think Quade will tour.

No point fucking about, may as well get straight into it. Do the recent similarities of both the Wallabies and Springboks getting trounced at their first meeting with the darkness and then almost reversing the result at the next one indicate that both teams were able to identify some...

I think Timani should come in for Hanigan, don't care which of he or McMahon plays 8, it's academic really but I'd be inclined to leave McMahon there and play Timani on the side. The call up of Tui for Douglas is interesting though. Can't see any changes in the backs unless he wants to rotate...

So we are looking at something like: 1. Sio 2. TPN 3. Alan 4. Arnold 5. Coleman 6. Hanigan 7. Hooper 8. Timani 9. Genia 10. Foley 11. Folau 12. Hodge 13. Kerevi 14. Speight 15. Beale 16. Moore 17. Faulkner 18. Kepu 19. Douglas 20. McMahon 21. Phipps 22. Meakes 23. DHP

Just because there isn't a thread yet!
