Talk about luck: rebels buy a kiwi 10 and he slips over on the roofed soil of his homeland.

Useless. Stirzaker in particular, but a lot of us.
Jackson's not doing his International chances any favours though either.

Maybe Andrew Cox should suit up for a game.

Hodge looks tired.
Stirzaker is useless as a leader and massively out of form as a scrum half.
JGB looks as bad as he did the first two games.
Jordy looks overweight and unfit.
I don't mean this in a bad way, but unless we're looking like getting a lot of players back immediately after the bye, I'd prefer to see a little bit of youth (Uelese, McGregor, Tupai, and maybe Tumualealiifano) plonked onto the bench.

When will people realise that McGahan is a total fail as head coach at this level just as he contributed nothing of value to the Wallabies in 2012 when he joined them.
The ARU did not then want to admit or face his mediocrity so, recklessly and irresponsibly, despatched him to the Rebels 'hoping' he'd magically turn them around.
ARU: 'As long as we get the media $s, doesn't really matter if the team plays well or not'.
McGahan will destroy the club in Melbourne if he's not replaced, and urgently.
I feel genuinely sorry for the players.

Lets see what " Some Positives " TT can tell us we can take out of this game ,,well we finally put two halves of football together and played the same for 80 mins ,,, we didnt miss any penalty kicks ,,,, no problem getting up for a visit or to get a drink,,,played nice and gave the other guys a lot of ball to play with ,,,
at some stage it needs to be realised Rables are not up to it , very sad

Team looked better in the last 15 once a few changes were made.
Jack deb, hodge and mafi looked like they belonged at the level.
English, koribete, Fainga'a, sa'aga, day and Hansen looked ok
The rest need to honestly look long and hard, some more so than others. I'd personally rather we play some young guns with a look to the future than what's been on offer. Time to look at everything been done away from the field and review it

Anyone wondering why some people think perhaps an Aus team is going to be cut will just watch this game and nod, Rebels (who I thought maybe ok this year) have a number of players that really don't deserve to be professional players, and mainly because of their attitude, you keep paying lazy players you set that as the standard!!
