I wonder what sort of cap you will get this year?
AFL or do you think they still have some NRL ones in stock?

That is probably better than some of their charity strips......

If you thought our alternate strip was bad check out the charity jumper, it just appeared for sale today:
Maybe I was the only one in the world who did, but I loved the all-Waratahs floral emblem shirt and hat. I still have the hat (never could afford the shirt) and wear it quite often, though the bogans down here in Adelaide don't have a clue what its all about.
That shirt has one massive problem. Even if you're svelte and toned you look six months pregnant. What were they thinking?

AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) actually had a good year last year passing wise for the Waratahs.That's fair enough, he does slip into that mindset every once in a while. The drawbacks of playing a guy on the wing and at fullback, then expecting him to play differently at 13.

I wouldn't be moving Folau from fullback.

I had heard there was a plan to play AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) at 12 and move Filou to 13 and see how he goes in that position with Beale to 15

It seems that Cheika is moving them around a bit in the pre-season. I think Lee Grant said KB (Kurtley Beale) had been training at 13. One of the strengths of last season was consistency in selections and under Cheika I would expect that to continue in 2014. I like Folau at fullback and think he's wasted on the wing - at 13 not sure.

Can't wait to see I Like to Watch's opinion on this design, which emphasises the girth. Can't see it being popular with those fans who are looking to slim down their middle.

Yeah, I mean I'd pick him at 13 anyway because I think 9 times out of 10 he's great. Everyone has bad games though and I think that's the reason.
Folau on the wing is only so Beale can be at 15. 14 Folau, 15 Beale >>>> 14 Betham, 15 Folau

AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) did a great job at 13 last year and Folau was a revelation at 15. KB (Kurtley Beale) at 12 would give more options than Horne and would also probably complement AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) more that Horne.

I'd love to see Horne at 12 again. Can't say i ever rated him as a 13, but I think he at least deserved a Wallabies squad spot last year.

Where to play KB (Kurtley Beale) may be a problem. Folau definitely better at 15 and I liked AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) at 13 last year.
It is the kind of problem I like a team to have
There will be injuries
On Beale, I think he is best at 15. Playing there he can be that second playmaker the Tahs lack
Folau can be the floater from 14 out wider

Early in the season I wouldn't mind if we went;
9. Phipps
10. Foley
11. Betham
12. Lance
13. AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)
14. Crawford
15. Folau
21. McKibbon
22. Horne
23. Beale - Super sub / Possible third playmaking role late in games at 15. Shifting Folau to 13 - AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) to the wing and taking out one of the wingers.

I was thinking something very similar to this. Beale as a super sub and able to move into a starting spot if there is a long term injury.
It will be interesting to see who starts at half. McKibbin certainly improved as the year went on in 2013 and Phipps can be good or awful. I always thought that it was a strange signing, but Cheika can obviously see something there.
