England v Australia

[fatprop]

All I want to see is Quade start at 10.

I think you will have to wait til the last 15 minutes or possibly the S15 trials

If we're not going to play AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) at outside centre I'd go with either Lilo or Horne. Both are in decent form, and Lilo is very comfortable playing outside of To'omua.

AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) will be the 13, he is a world-class 13 who is very unlucky to be behind an in-form Kuridrani.

If Cheika doesn't play him there I would seriously question his coaching ability.

A revolutionary third five-eighth set up BDA?

The Brumbies did run with their 'Tri-half' system in 2011

I thought getting the names wrong of three of the seven players was pretty impressive.

I could only count 2

Pitty, but I think you right, foley will start and will also struggle this weekend.

I do like that fact Chekia is giving other guys a crack and dropping players to do so. But keeping Phipps and foley to start, he is Really showing his true colors..
I Really look forward to the last to the mast 15min of the game...

I can understand his persistence with Phipps, he is mostly good, he just needs to knock off the 2-3 horrible passes that put us under pressure each game. But he does usually recycle the ball a lot quicker then Genia, and he has a more attacking threat then White.

100% agree on Foley though, I'm really not happy to keep seeing him in the gold jersey.

meh, I thought Foley was good last weekend and didn't "struggle", but he will struggle this week if the pigs don't turn up, like Cooper or anyone else

Re-read and try again.

 

[Lindommer]

[RugbyReg]

Matty To'omua and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)!

Falou. It sort of looks ok.

Lets just throw Hooper in at 13 because he's good at busting tackles and go with Beale at 7 so he can start.

didn't Hooper play in the centres before he was recruited by the Brumbies?

 

[The_Brown_Hornet]

didn't Hooper play in the centres before he was recruited by the Brumbies?

I've certainly seen him play there for Manly.

 

[Brumby Runner]

didn't Hooper play in the centres before he was recruited by the Brumbies?

Was after he started with the Brumbies. He played a game or two at 12 for Manly. Spoke with him about it at the Brumbies' Xmas do that year and he said he wasn't very impressed with playing in the backline.

Lancaster has said Farrell has been dropped to the bench.
