2010 Wallabies End of Year Tour (EOYT)

[Hugh Jarse]

Giteau may not be going. Here and Here



I'm sure he probably will get an emergency passport in time but it would be amusing.

That's priceless, but wishful thinking.

Not able to travel, while highly unlikely, would make things a little easier for Dingo and reduce much of the speculation on these threads about Gits.

I wonder whether Blake would bring a similar skillset to the Wallabies that someone like Muggleton did? How was Manly's defence this season?

From what I saw, very good. Just about the best in the competition from memory.

Could G&GR get some sort of tipping comp up for the Autumn Internationals?

There is one here which looks alright;

For the game between the Netherlands and Hong Kong in the Netherlands on the 18th of December there will be the first female referee in a senior mens international 15 a side game. Dana Teagarden will officiate the fixture.

Is she hot?

According to Foxsports:

Both Elsom and Deans stressed results rather than player development and potential as the big objective of the seven-match tour of Hong Kong and Europe.

In that case anything less than a total whitewash of the NH sides and in convincing style will be rated as a failure in my book. As for beating the ABs next week, not a chance if Deans persists with Giteau as kicker and JOC (James O'Connor) on the wing. At least now that Alexander is back Ma'afu will be relegated.

She has done IRB 7's before apparently, and was a standout at the recent female RWC.

The Jarses have been refereed before very competently by female referees.

Young girl (then) at King of the Hills tournament in about 2004. Hope she is still officiating.

Lady at Uni Norths Canberra 7's. No problems.

Both good referees.

Bring it on I say.

Agree 100%. This tour needs to be a convincing improvement over least year.

Yeah, we need to start trouncing some people now. Trouncing England will be a good beginning.

 

[Nusadan]

Is she hot?

I recollect seeing some vids of her games... see: http://vimeo.com/9927515

Perhaps hot in a wholesome way...not a stunner, mind you...but not displeasing to the eye...

 

[cyclopath]

Fark, that's some godawful rugby being played there, apologies for being un-PC, but the general ball skills are appalling.
And yes, I may have been drinking....
Quite a bit....

Trouncing the ABs will make me happier

 

[WorkingClassRugger]

I'd just be happy with a win over the Darkness. Leave the trouncing until the RWC final in Auckland/

 

[Lindommer]

Fark...the general ball skills are appalling.

In that case, pedallist, I'd suggest you're the man for the job.

 

[Joe Mac]

Hope we annihalate England seeing I will be at HQ for the game. Anyone else here head out to Twickenham in 3 weeks?

Jeez, that is like school 3rd XVs!!!

Yes, a 2 point win over the New Zealand Rugby Team and then maybe some bigger wins in the north would suit me fine.

More than one loss would be a real passion killer.
