In addition to what BH said, I think Schmidt does not seem like a coach to select players he does not know or trust for such a massive series. Honestly though I’m not sure that form is budging too many players out of that 23, they’ve all been either performing or just have a ceiling that is...

I’d honestly be pretty shocked if we see a team that is very different from the one we saw on the EOYT barring injuries. There’s only one test before the Lions. That team was: Wallabies team to play Ireland at Aviva Stadium in Dublin on Saturday November 30 at 3:10pm GMT/2:10am AEDT (Sunday) 1...

I believe the newsreaders are all reading off the same script on the hourly bulletins at the ABC and are often the same newsreaders simulcast across different stations. My guess would be that the person putting the script together had no idea about sports and just took a look at their press...

Haha I’m actually on the road so only just got caught up.

I think the no return piece is the most critical here. The return would be a better prepared and more competitive playing base from which to springboard semi-pro players into Super players and above. Obviously there is no financial return, you’re right. It would be loss making. We are about to...

No mention of a national third tier comp in the deal reporting that I have seen (correct me if I’m wrong) and this was a promise of Waugh’s last year. The optimist in me hopes that this means it could be a livestream product on socials, especially tik tok and instagram but the realist in me...

Possibly but I wouldn’t be so sure. I used to sit right next to the away team’s families at Suncorp and my experience has been that the pro propa are often the smallest of the males in their families. I know that holds true for some Wallabies. We underestimate just how much these big boys have...

Certainly I’d prefer to be in Spain than the USA. However, Barcelona is actually exactly where I would be most worried about going to in Spain, especially around large crowds of fans having fun. I don’t like buying new iPhones and going to the consulate for emergency passports. I’m not trying...

I’m not sure Spain would be that high on my wish list tbf considering the tourist experience in recent years as well as the social attitude to visitors for a sport most of them care nought about. But what are the alternatives? New Zealand would remain a top choice but are they willing to work...

Not trying to make excuses but now that he is over 25yo he’s going to have to learn to live with his metabolism. As funny as it sounds, when he was 130kg he was slim for his genealogy. A developing injury history in the most critical ligament for running won’t help his cardio chances. Facing up...

They got that lotus but only one ep left. iykyk

I don’t like resting him for this game. It feels like a bit of a 4D chess attempt when at the end of the day you really just need to play better than other teams more than half of the time. However, I would say in his short career so far that he’s proven himself against some tougher opponents...

Right, I got those days mixed up.

And the broncos vs dolphins

Hopefully the Lions too!

Technically I believe it was always supposed to be SEQ with some water sports outside of that area but I was surprised to see the rowing up there. We are assured that the crocs are only freshwater ones which is no doubt very reassuring to all.

I have had a couple of those as well but I think they are all the hospitality packages that would have been bought en masse by the providers. So incredibly expensive.

What about Conor Vest’s status? I’d have Bryant ahead of him at flanker but would still be good to have.

Definitely not solving the problem long term but I don’t think we actually can solve it any time soon. There’s just not really any options. Maybe Daugunu can bail us out there but it’s deck chairs on the titanic for the short term.

Yeah definitely would have HMP at 15. Murray needs a reset in his own position down a level. If Mason is fit I’d have him on the bench. There’s no silver bullet for this problem but that seems least bad.
