Really thought he was clearly 2 for the Wallabies when he left so be great to see him on home shores again.

DC can speak for himself, but I’m certain he watches more French rugby than most…

Although his weakness was his throwing. Strong scrummager, strong around the field and and in the tight but could be hot and cold with his throws. Hopefully he’s fixed that. As much as I’m loving Fez and Nasser getting Wallabiea gigs BPA could add some bulk and muscle in the pack.

I’ve watched the majority of Castres season, I keep an eye on most Aussie players in the French system. Funnily enough I’m actually about 50km from Castres as I type. I’m in a gorgeous medieval town, Cordes-Sur-Ciel, on my honeymoon! I highly recommend the area

God help me but my memory is different. I'd take a BPA (in the form he was before leaving) back at the Reds in a heart beat and back him for Gold. It has taken us some time to learn the lesson about throws being a basic hooker skill and while I Faessler has this nailed toan international level, both are good enough to look to their around the field skills. In which case a BPA in form for me though Faessler still has ceiling left.
Either way BPA making a challenge for the 2/16 can only be a good thing.
Great to see him back.

Off topic so apologies Force fans and mods, but what's the general vibe like re: the Olympics outside of Paris? Festive, couldn't give two shits, or somewhere in between?I’ve watched the majority of Castres season, I keep an eye on most Aussie players in the French system.

And congrats on the wedding.

There are rumours that Guy Porter has retured due to concussion issues. So guess he won't be joining the Force next year?
Congrats enjoy the trip. Ps why on forums whilst on honeymoon??? HahaI’ve watched the majority of Castres season, I keep an eye on most Aussie players in the French system.

Mate this whole wedding business has already made me miss three Wallabies games in a row. How much more can a man endure!

Eh bit of this bit of that. There are fan zones and stuff and a few of the events are spread around the country. I’ll see tonight as it’s the opening ceremony. As you know the french are very apathetic to any changes or government funding. For instance majority think making the Seine swimmable is a wank and a waste of time and generally allocation of funds are inappropriate in tough days.
I think it’s all awesome, Paris has never felt cleaner or more functional.

There really isn’t. Losing to them will be the big embarrassment. They don’t even have a squad.
Pre season world champs again though

Good question? Rugby Australia is sharing the talent around!! Sure they are.

They'll pick them up after a year with the Tahs.

Where they will play much better no doubt. Cut out the middle man and go straight to the Force!

Hope so for the Wallabies sake. Is winning a comp a genuine thought though when picking up Tahs from mid table seasons? Cron loves his Shute Shield players and a few are back playing well at the moment.
