That thudding you hear is me repeatedly banging my head on the desk........

New week, new game, clean slate. Deep breath!!!!

If Dennis is unavailable, who captains? I notice Hooper took over last week in the last 10 when Dennis was subbed off, is he the obvious choice?

Probably, but it's hard to be sure. AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) and Benn Robinson had also been replaced by that point of the game.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Cattle_Dog

The Australian Cattle Dog (ACD or Cattle Dog), is a breed of herding dog originally developed in Australia for driving cattle over long distances across rough terrain.

It has been nicknamed a "Red Heeler" or "Blue Heeler" on the basis of this colouring and its practice of moving reluctant cattle by nipping at their heels. Dogs from a line bred in Queensland, Australia, which were successful at shows and at stud in the 1940s, were called "Queensland Heelers" to differentiate them from lines bred in New South Wales; this nickname is now occasionally applied to any Australian Cattle Dog.

NSW Waratahs Twitterer should maybe check Wikipedia first

Ahhhh, Ash, let the intern display his new photoshop skills.

 

[I like to watch]

Really?
You want to debate the correct description of the breed of the fucking dog?
It's going to be a long week!

Red Heeler

Blue Heeler

Even a Qlder should be able to spot the difference

 

[emuarse]

A pink ball carrying Heeler. A bit of Blue, a bit of Red. (It really is a long week, isn't it?)

Here's a picture of the dog:

What do you think it is, blue heeler or red heeler?

Yes, even a Queenslander can spot the difference, but obviously such simple abilities are above certain New South Welshmen!

 

[Braveheart81]

Fair enough Ash.

I notice that the Reds are looking for naming suggestions.

I suggested Banjo. Hopefully they go with it.

 

[rugbysmartarse]

Shit, if it's blue on one side, and red on the other, I'd call it Tweed

Ha ha Ash, referring them to Wikipedia! Nailed it. No one could argue with a quick Photoshop job and a reference to Wikipedia. Good job Tahs Twitter, this week is finally looking up.

 

[Ash]

Well, I would've grabbed the original picture pre-photoshop off the web to paste, but twitter is blocked at work!

That name would depend on which way it's facing.

 

[Scrubber2050]

More likely to be RED at the front half encapsulating the good looks and brians of the head as well as the powerrful shoulders and chest and the back half BLUE lamenting the tail and what goes under the tail

It really is a long week - cannot wait for the game - am sure it will be very close - so much to play for - hopefully it is a terrific spectacle and there is a very good crowd at ANZ

I think that's unfair - Quade has lifted his game immensely and doesn't deserve such cheap slurs.

Was waiting for someone to make a comment......

It was just sitting there, like a juicy plum.
I'm on the Q-wagon, so no malice involved!
