Absolutely. I have been told time and time again that he was the best of the best out of QLD GPS (schoolboy rugby) backs from 05-08. Included the likes of Pocock, Cooper, JOC (James O'Connor) etc. etc.

Really??? You dont like rugby then.. Brumbies came out like a fire and put it to the best players from the north.. they subbed came back like a train.. brumbies frought there gutts out.. if you didnt like it you dont know the sport it's not about great moves.. fast backs it;s about Kilmen fighting every lineout .. winnign when we needed too.. the Scrum getting shunted then holding it when we wanted it... Fardy stealing a ball like david pocock.. if you think that game was boring go watch league

Interesting, I would tend to agree that he just shaded those mentioned above, then again Pocock was also an inside centre so perhaps that's a harsh comparison..
To be honest back then I thought he would have to be in green and gold before Cooper and JOC (James O'Connor) but for some reason or another his development hit a bump after high school. He booked his ticket on the EOYT tonight and I have no doubt we will see him in Aus colours soon enough.
On another note, Kudriani was massive in defence, to be fair his try was assisted by some awful defending. It will be interesting to see if Jake will try to find room for McCabe.

I was more than satisfied with the front row against the initial Lions' three. I thought they achieved at least parity, and certainly were not dominated. The Lions' replacement front row played for the final 20 minutes and the Brumbies' props stayed on for the whole 80 minutes. So their effort against what could be a large part of the Lions' test front row who came on fresh was extremely commendable and included enough pressure to force a critical turnover near the end. Scott Sio should be on the Wallabies bench, while I think all three will be stars in the near future.

Great resume builder that, for JW. Even said it himself:
(a) "To get a win against the Lions - it doesn't happen. Even the Brumbies in their heyday couldn't do it,'' [Never been done before]
(b) "I've been lucky enough to win a junior and senior World Cup. But to beat the Lions. It's as high as it gets.'' [It appears I've done it all]

Using the excuse it was the lions B team to me is rubbish and no credit to the young (internationaly Uncapped) Brumbies that you also can call the B team. It just show the depth coming through the brumbies franchise and Whites coaching skills.
Said before in a post that mogg said a big FU to deans. I like it.
