so if kurtley misses some tackles or has a brain fart and costs us the game is it hickeys fault or kurtleys?
or if kurtley doesnt himself make a line break, does it mean kurtley gets shafted for someone else?
its the selection everyone on here wants including me, but the tahs arnt going as bad as everyone is making out, there playing ugly (on occasion) but there also winning when they need to.
as far as the teams below having a game in hand, oe of them is Qld and you know there going to fade like mad till the end of the year so you can cross one name off the list at least.
What the fuck are you saying?
If Anesi plays shit in any one game, it's his fault.
If he does it all last season and then continues it this season for 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 games, then it's Hickey's fault for picking him, regardless of whether the team's coming first or last.

The Chiefs have lost one more game than the Tahs, played the same number and are only ONE point behind. That's what scoring tries and making bonus points does for you.
The whole coaching team plus Phil Waugh admitted last year that not going for tries and bonus points cost them dearly. Now we are almost halfway through the comp and SEVEN teams have got more bonus points than we have, and three of them are within three points of us on the table and one has a game in hand. We've played the three bottom teams already.
The changes made this week needed to be made earlier. Hooray for Hickey doesn't cut it for mine, and Burgess is starting instead of Holmes. After last week that is too conservative.
Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

im saying if kurtley has a shitter is it still a good selection? answer no. the plan on the forum is the same as every other fanboy suggestion ever made. your banking on kurtley having a blinder in a position he has only ever played in the last ten/twenty minutes at super level. will it happen?
and burgess is the less conservative choice than holmes
and also with bonus points, its not just up to the tahs if they get four trys, they play against this thing called "another team" so saying they didnt get bonus points blah blah blah just belittles the opposition

WJ,
Well there's no harm in giving it a go, Anesi hasn't really set the Rugby world fire & like my original post said he's an over the hill All Black & a little part of Super Rugby is to produce depth for the Wallabies.
If Kurtley has a shocker then he at least should be given 3 games to rectify his form.
What if he does have a blinder? Great hopefully he gives Deans some selection headaches come the Tri-nations.

If Kurtley has a terrible match he is laughing - Hickey will select him at 15 for the rest of the season!
What is the problem WJ? Are you happy with the selection of Beale or not? or are you just pissed because so many posters here have been suggesting it for weeks now?
For the record, if Kurtley fucks up it is all my fault.

im just asking the question, during this period on the boards of "hickey knows nothing".
last year when the wallabies were using i made my opinion known of positional changes and was told repeatedly that robbie deans was the greatest man on the earth and he knew better than me, everyone kept going on about the single win in brissy as if it meant more than the other five losses.
im just asking so if kurtley plays bad its not hickeys fault, i wanted kurtley at fullback as well, you can read some of my posts and see that, i questioned why anyonw would get a winger as a marquee signing when its a long known belief wingers are a waste of space anyway.
i dont know why your attacking me over it, im just makig sure your taking responsability for you statements, as you ask of me but not of yourselves.

no, not at all, i just thought we lacked leadership to close out tight games. still do, waugh is the only one left capable of doing this regardless of how you think of his current form, i would prefer him on the field with ten to go than have the ball in the hands of giteau
