Are there any predictions about James Horwill you haven't made?
If the Reds had ditched him for 2015, you could also say you predicted it!

Fully deserved. In the top three looseheads in the world now for sure.

The clean shaven look is a new look as well....
As for the OZ team, good on Cheika for selecting basically the same team. The young blindside will have had the adrenalin pumping last week, first run on test and all, so he will be able to just calm it down a few notches and just play. Good luck to him.
Big test for Horwill. Could stake his claim back as a starter leading into next year.

Hardly ... he's just won 1st prize at the Paris Fashion Week awards Wallaby Division just edging out Laurie Fisher & Chris Handy .... Sartorial Elegance is a state of mind ie. If you think you've got it flaunt it !

Karmichael was a better footballer than Israel, as he will be a better rugby player. Israel is a much better athlete.
K has a background in rugby, can kick, pass, defend front on and will read the game beautifully.
I think he will either be 12, or 15 in our WC back-line. No way in the world Lilo or To'omua will be better than him. Not within cooee.

Happy with the team and happy that there is some consistency in selection. I'm OK with McMahon getting another go, for a couple of reasons:
a, He got better as the game went on last week and will relish the opportunity to front up again and prove he belongs at this level (I certainly think he does).
b, France are likely to select two flyers and the McMahon/Hooper pairing is a good match up.

Maybe better footballer if you're trying to find someone will all the skills (i.e. Hunt has far better playmaking ability than Folau).
Folau was close to the best in the game on the wing or in the centres for a couple of years. His tryscoring record is incredible at all levels in league and union.
Hunt is certainly more versatile, but that might only benefit his chances of getting a RWC spot as a utility player. If Folau and Hunt are both healthy, Hunt won't be taking the Wallaby 15 jersey next year.

That is a complete unknown and will be his biggest challenge. I hope you are right though because he has already ticked all the other boxes.

I have watched him play quite a lot of rugby, and I think many people are underestimating the base he is coming from.

Cheika seems to know how to keep the "fires burning" in the squad by throwing the gauntlet out to those outside the XV to fight for their positions on the bench . I don't think that he can be much fairer than that and helps instil pride in the Wallabies jersey that may have been missing in recent times for both players and the paying public . Ladies & Gentlemen the intensity has just lifted a notch . Those that make onto the bench know they've earned it and those in the XV will truly cherish it . Also it was heartening to hear Cheika say "We want to make Australia Proud", so leave your state affiliations at the door and "let the games begin !" GO WALLABIES !!!!
Cheika is just lulling everyone into a false sense of security before he enters the Waratahs in the 2015 RWC.
