So - Josh Flook. Is it time for the hype train to leave the station? Only 19. Outstanding schools record against NZ. Bad luck with injury last year. Looks the goods now though. I thought he played well, but Stewart is the wrong partner for him, as the reds lacked midfield punch. Be interested to se...

Petaia could be our best 15 for a very long time, maybe ever. If thats the plan then playing him on the wing for now is good, maybe giving him some time at 15 late in test matches when possible. The guy has aerial skills, kicking skills, speed and positional awareness. Folau with actual fullback sk...

Just checked Ikitau's attacking stats from last night and they were dire. Maybe not an automatic selection for 13. Hopefully an aberration.

0 passes, 2 runs for 6m, 2 defenders beaten, 0 clean breaks.

Flook for comparison:

0 passes, 7 runs for 75m, 5 defenders beaten, 2 clean breaks.

Minor detail.

LSL will be the first picked if he sorts his discipline issues out, which he seems to have done. I've come around to the JP at 15 call. 1. Slipper 2. BPA (so what if he's leaving) 3. Tupou 4. Philip 5. LSL 6. Valetini 7. Hooper 8. Wilson 9. White 10. JOC 11. MK 12. Paisami 13. Ikitau 14. Wright 15. ...

Any chance Wallabies might take the points when they are offered?

Bindi

It's almost certain Abbott would have gone full Bolsonaro. Dodged a bullet there.

Bindi

For me, players who did good:

Daugunu
McReight
ASY
Wilson
Petaia
JOC

Veletini
Wright
Wright
Lolelieso

Just got home. Haven't read the thread. Probably the best match I have ever seen live. Brumbies outstanding. Reds just a bit better. No one played poorly. Shanky has made a Cnut out of himself. Better to give it a miss. How'd the crowd go? I can't imagine anyone walked away unhappy with that. The b...

JOC should be Wallabies captain.

Fairley simple.

Veletini, Wilson and White have be cemented their Wallaibes jerseys.

Robbed of that try. Was under control therefore not a knock on. Was a weird one. Everytime that happens normally, the decision is based on the ball carrier, not the tackler. My guess is the initial dislodging of the ball was called a knock-on You're less sober than I am therefore can't be trusted.

Bindi

Anyway, the most important thing is Mungo and I smashed a lot of beers in a very short period of time.

I’d like to see more of Anstee. Hes clarse. The Rebs have a decent pack but the backs have no penetration at all, due a lot to Matty Toomuas lack of creative ability. No way he can play 10 or 12 for the Wobs if we want to actually win a few games. Toomua perhaps deserves some blame but the Rebels b...

Bindi

I am concentrating on grooming in preparation for this mini-cabal

Bindi

After the last 2 weekends: There's no way Toomua should be anywhere near the starting 15. Simply can't pass and can't put anyone into a gap. Kaitu'u has to be the worst lineout thrower I've ever seen. Should concentrate on that before getting selected. There really won't be too many non-Reds and Bru...

Great end to possibly the worst match of all time.

I reckon I might. If you decide to, post accordingly if a refreshing draught beforehand at ex-Aether (Milton Common?) is acceptable. They've changed management?

While the UQ technology is capable, a lot of funding is required if they want to go down the COVID-19 route. Phase I to III trials are very expensive. Maybe the AZ disaster will help with that. Maybe CSL will come stump up some money as they can actually manufacture it in contrast to the mRNA vaccin...

Govt has just declared that only over 50s will be getting the locally-made vaccine. Rest will be getting Pfizer. Major setback. At least another full year to vaccination now.

Brumbies at full strength. Better across the park apparently. Massive favourites.

Hannigan filled a gap when he was requried. He may still be a utility bench option. He wasn't getting selected because the Wallabies selectors were clueless but a few clueless anonymous rugby forum posters knew better. But that was last year. Agree.

Yes.

Ned Hanigan is back from the elite Japanese 2nd division. Presumably, Rennie will rush him straight into the Wallaby 6 position.

More industrial, but they don't have anything on the Assyrians or Mongols for evil.

Just caught the game after coming back from camping (torrential rain, gale-force winds etc.). Reds just better across the park. Probably won't happen but JOC should really retain the captaincy.
