Very droll.

I meant that literally Dru. Perfection in sports consists of thousands of hours practicing precisely the same thing. Ten thousand hours, if current psychological theory is right, to be world class at something.

MElla's the best rugby player I've seen in 50 years of watching the game.

 

[wamberal]

Ken Catchpole is the best I have ever seen.

 

[Scrubber2050]

All true - all great players

BUT NONE OF THEM WERE PERFECT

 

[John S]

Nobody?

 

[wamberal]

Nobody?

I think he means Nobody was perfect.

 

[John S]

I think he means Nobody was perfect.

Yeah, that's what I was saying

 

[Sully]

Nobody as in John Eales?

Slow news week...

Slow news week.

"Wallabies team to remained largely unchanged due to walloping of the Welsh last week"

"Bench slightly changed to suit conditions and opposition"

Not quite as exciting as:

"12 changes to Wallabies starting XV following Eden Park slaughter. 9 players on debut and ex-Wallaby claims theres too many Waratahs"

Perhaps we'll just have to get used to winning. Surely Dean Mumm's selections only got another 3 or so pages left to give.

There isn't one of course. Not now that Tom Carter has retired.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Almost time to move on.

To use the young persons language, we are versing The Scotch tonight.

Last weeks game is so last week.

So this game is on Kayo as a classic package, along with the rest of the 2016 Spring Tour.

I thoroughly recommend watching. I forgot about this game, but it's a top 5 Cheika Wallaby performance IMO, maybe even top 3 (behind England RWC15 and Perth Bled 2019).

We just thumped Wales. Never allowed them into the game. Everything clicked and we scored some great tries.

Put it on for an hour and feel better about life.
