Probably not the best way of putting it
What I meant was 10s like Larkham and Cooper (and to a lessor extent O'Conner) who would play flat and cut teams apart by putting players regularly into gaps and/or run in tries themselves

The wingers match up for this game is pretty bloody exciting. Jorgensen, Nawaqanitawase & Toole all have serious pace. I really want Toole to go well this season, he's so young at 22 and could be something else with his speed.
I feel like the Wallabies have had some fast wingers but nothing crazy fast in a while.

Part me of me wants a try a piece. One with Toole skinning him on the outside then Nadolo going right over the top of Toole.
A big man with any sort of space in the 22 does get the crowd up and loud. I remember every time Taqele Naiyaravoro would get it in that position it was great fun.

A lot of work went in from the people around them to make that happen, of course. Not much different to Foley in concept, who would distribute until he got the position he wanted.
Foley was not as good as the other two when at their limits, but he was most consistent in some ways than Quade.

Foley has a brilliant ability to pick when it's the appropriate time for a dart or even to get his shoulders through and offload. Quade has the ability to bamboozle a defender but also try to do it at completely the wrong moment. This seems to have settled somewhat but defences also knew if rushed he will revert to playing touch and get stuck.
Larkham different category IMO. Kept composure in moments of chaos and could slice right through a defence when the opportunity arose. Sure with the talent he was surrounded by it created opportunities but still a class above.

Is that the first score or the first win? If win, score?

Win. 50-26 I believe, unapologetically

Turns out to be a lucky pick up during the off-season.

I actually met him and his leaguie brother at their uncle’s wedding late last year...know their (now) aunt quite well. Nice people, good on him.Anyways, apparently this loosehead prop who was just invited to the Brumbies on a trial basis late last year and as far as I'm aware was not part of the official squad, will start ahead of James Slipper this week...
Waratahs’ loss is Canberra’s gain: Why Brumbies are all over the Schoupp
Following the time-worn pathway, dominant Sydney prop Blake Schoupp was signed by the Brumbies after the Waratahs showed no interest. And now he’ll debut against NSW, too.www.smh.com.au

Did he not drop that ball as he landed before the tryline?
