Re: Reds v Drua, Saturday March 12
Great game to watch apart from the yellow cardathon at the back end of the first half. Hard not to like watching the Drua run it and throw the ball around. They'll be plenty of people's second team. The replacement 9 played really well when he came on. Same with the replacement lock sprinting 70 for...

Re: Wallabies 2021 OFFICIAL thread
I'd give Hodge a go at fullback and take all the long-range shots available. We need to add early scoreboard pressure to our game plan.

Valetini will be embarrassed by that performance. it'll be interesting to see if he come out firing or takes a conservative approach to improving. His best attribute is his physicality so he really only has one choice. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if he's quiet again. He should die trying to b...

Re: Wallabies 2020 thread
TT has such great impact at the back end of games. When he starts it is often negated by fresh legs and intent somewhat. I think Rennie has it right for now but could bring him in a little earlier. I think he should come at the 30 minute mark when the sting has gone out of the game and the starters...
