Given the potential players at the Brumbies right now, this could be a very long wait.

Seriously? After an exchange consisting of four posts, in a game thread where they're competing for selection? You can tell all this from that?
Or has this "new member" person made trouble in the past? The saucy minx!

Has to be. Our lineout was pretty good against the ABs. It would be madness to go back to a couple of shorties in the back row.
Fardy in and Poey on the pine. McMahon misses out this week.
I think a big contributor to our improved lineout is Stephen Moore's form. His last four games are a stark contrast to earlier in the season.
That said I expect Cheika will opt for Fardy at 6 to give it the best chance of continuing.

From experience you guys are on about post 4 of 30 and it progresses in exactly the same fashion every time.

In my experience of match threads here, you older members are already on about post 400 of 3,000 on Foley v Cooper yourselves, without the need for any outside assistance.

Can't believe there isn't a Foley V Cooper thread with 3000+ posts.
Anyway, I'd like to see Folau on the wing for this Test so we have another North V Folau battle. That was a beauty in the Lions series. Both up there as best on field with Folau coming out on top.
I don't think DHP is going to defend North too well, if North is in form (haven't heard much about him recently).

Yes, absolutely.
That's probably the major reason for my comments. There is a lot of history where this sort of debate from new members not really familiar with the forum end up with heated arguments and people getting banned.

CLL is the possibility if his health returns. He is a lot better goal kicker than Foley. Back in 2012 he was an excellent playmaker when To'omua was injured, perhaps he can return to that. I would love to see it.
I take the inference re the 2 houses and the brumbies not was an assumptions that I am a Reds supporter and the other is a tahs one.
To make sure no one thinks I am pushing a state based agenda I am a tahs supporter.
Just as far as the wallabies are concerned I have zero state allegiances one way or the other, I just want whats best for the team.

With Alwyn Jones out of the game, the wales lineout caller, and no noted lineout exponents in the wales backrow I expect Cheika to select Pooper and Timani at 6.
Fardy on the bench.
Note not what I would go for but what I think Cheika will do.

DHP's defense is poor on the wing at 69%.
He needs to be shifted to 15.
It looks like Hodge is going to be at 12 again. To combat Davies and Roberts in the midfield it makes sense to play Kuridrani at 13 at least on defence, and Folau on the wing.
Folau could move to 12 or 13 off set piece attack or stay on the wing for a kick pass.

I apprecriate where you are coming from.
I can be stubborn and keep rebutting, and provide new eveidence.
However I don't get abusive nor emotional about it.
If the other does I ask them to play the ball not the man and don't post again.

For anyone interested the refs for all the wallaby games are available.
Wales - Joubert
Scotland - Lacey (irish ref)
France - Jackson
Ireland - Garces (terrible french ref)
England - Peyper
The good news no Nigel Owens who really does not give the wallabies the rub of the green, it seems a subconscious dislike

Very common discussions I imagine
1) Foley v Cooper
2) Hooper v Pocock
3) Where to play Folau
4) Pooper whether it should be played
5) Anyone but Mumm
6) Cheika's flaws as a selector
7) Cheika's flaws (or positives) in temperament
......
100) Wallaby scrums, technical improvement
101) Different defence patterns wallabies should use when
102) Different kicking strategies by Wallabies

^^^^ raises an interesting point about Cheika's temperament.
How good is it? I love how he makes what he thinks known and can be either incendiary when necessary or silent in equal measure.
Polite, media friendly, cookie cutter responses to the exact same questions over and over get so dull. Need a little character in the game.
