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...

I wonder whether theyve told JAS to just keep things simple in terms of his role on the field, given how new he is to the side. I cant image they told him to go looking for work like more experienced backs can do. The good thing is we are probably only seeing a small portion of what he can offer...

Finally got a chance to watch the full game. A few thoughts: 1. My biggest take away is how far this team has come in since the first wales game back in June. I remember at that time looking at the team and the way they were playing a thinking we dont have the players, there's nothing we do that...

I assume schmidt now has an idea of who his preferred starters are likely to be for the lions series. Would love to know whether he sees Skelton in his best 15. A lot of different opinions on this site.

I cant see us winning this game. I think we have the players to get there but i reckon we still need more seasoning to beat ireland in their own back yard, at the end of a hard tour. The only question for me is whether the game blows out at the end. If this game was being played in aus id be...

Yeh we got burnt last year playing tupou off the bench when he wasnt 100%...if alatoa goes down injured in the 20th minute ya fuckd. I think you start him and hope he can last 35 mins

Final got a chance to watch the game...is it just me or did we get very little love from the ref?

We definitely lose a bit in attack unquestionably. But scoring points doesnt seem to be an issue for us atm. Our defence is more likely to be our downfall agsinst scotland. Fraser is clearly a better player than tizanno but you might give tizanno a slight edge as just a per defensive player. I...

Don't hate it. I know fuck all about potter but im gonna trust schmidt at this point - he seems to have a decent eye for talent. Also im not mad if he wants to rest mcreight for tizzano. Tizzano did prove that he's more than up to the task. One thing i do like about joe is that he finds a way...

I'd be shocked if Wilson was available and Schmidt left him out of the starting side.

Is Kailea injured? I just can't understand how Slipper could be showing Shmidt more on the training paddock
