RWC: AUS v URU (Villa Park, Birmingham): POOL A; 9pm (AEST) Sunday 27 September

In 1991, IIRC, Knox and Tombs got no game time

Good point. But the game has become much harder and more physical. I don't think you can do that now.

True, but in those far off days you pretty much played your best XV in every test and sometimes not even the bench guys got on unless there was an injury. It may have even still been the era when a doctor had to establish that a player was injured before a replacement was allowed on.

 

[ChargerWA]

no i don't think you have two, but i'll give you one "eloquted" a combination of eloquence and elocution

and did you mean confusionism (a new word) or confucianism - the philospher

Yeah, the philosopher. The ox is slow but the earth is patient.

Yep, I played in a finals series in that exact year and we had one injury change in between games. Essentially the same 15 guys played every minute of the three games.

Wish these Fox dicks would pull their heads in. Stop talking about 73 point wins and try fests. Show some respect and go out there and let the play do the talking.

Why is fardy warming up? I'm assuming he is the 24th man.

Some decent looking specimens in the Uruguay 23 for a team with amateur players still.
