Well said. As I said on the chat, I'd really like to see some tweets like "Spent the afternoon working on [insert missing skill], was awesome".

Edit after the angst has worn off - The guys obviously deserve a life outside rugby just like anyone else, and my comment was petty and stupid. Leaving it here as a reminder to myself.

You should see Robbie Deans tweets:

"Just finished telling the players at half time how special and unique they are! What an adorable bunch of young men!"

Fuck that dickhead talks some complete shit.

i don't agree, being a wallaby is an honour which you have to work hard for and dedicate yourself too yes, but its also their job. They're allowed to have time and communication outside of their job, as are you. its of no matter whether they're in the public spotlight and i for one think that more of them should do it as its giving a personable face to rugby in australia

Tweeting about their fu(king puppy? For real? This must be a wind-up biggsy! Are they Aussies or "Wendys"?

Early in the week I was following about seven of the players by yesterday I was down to two. God they tweet a lot of crap.

Come on, lets be reasonable here. They lost the game, and we are all a bit cut. But this is just stupid. What, you think they are going to be tweeting ideas for backline moves? Its twitter FFS. 99.99% of all tweets are meaningless crap.

some have the right idea here. what do you expect from them? they're candid comments from a bunch of sports blokes. it's not going to be high-brow stuff. if you want something intellectually stimulating, have a look at the classics section of your local library.

everyone needs to beat it. its a SOCIAL website to interact with their fans...... celebs around the world do it, let them live their life. just because any of us dont have 2000+ people following our every 'tweet' doesn't mean we need to get jealous!

ps dont follow them if you don't want to know what they are doing!!!! they are doing it for you to see what it is like to be a wallaby during a test week! and obviously a test week does not included training 3 times a day!! pretty obviously conclusion if you know what it is like leading up to an important game

I dint agree at all bigsy, don't follow them if you don't want to read it, it's hardly as though twittering is detracting from there rugby.
