Donno also gone it seems. Left out?

Olo

Nic White retires….again. He has been in career best form and will be missed. I don’t think Gordon is anywhere near as good. Maybe time for Tate to start?
Schmitty has a thing about Gordon but he is no Nic White.

Olo

Yes, what he said

Olo

So whats the deal with Skelton? Why did he go back to France? I dont understand, cant we say sorry, hes here until October? Or is he too scared to rock the boat of his pay masters? You say rock the boat but both players have been dropped or not considered for Wallaby duties in the past so took up c...

Great actor. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid a favourite. RIP

It blows me away that we cannot find a spot in the Soup for JOC. Watching the SRAU games Max Fury was by far the best 10 on display, and he is not really even a 10. Keep him on board for the next couple of years. He looks in good nick. Meredith and HMP are nearly good 10s, but definitely not ready ...

Yes. Played well again.
A deserved win

Olo

Agree with that on Edmed. Just not even close to being ready. I doubt he will ever be. I’d guess Lynagh and Donno for the Bled. Mungo too. So passive in attack and defense. We really missed Frost. Paisami kicks too easily and he was once again loose in the carry. Showed some good things as well. Kel...

Olo

Win Pumas good for the victory.
Wallabies under strength in a number of key positions but still played some good footy in the second half.
Congrats Argentina.

You reap what you sow. The far right in the US and this administration in particular have preached hate and absolute unwillingness to accept alternate beliefs, lifestyles and cultures, not to mention skin colours. This bloke was a loud mouthpiece for that and them. Whoever took him out was enabled b...

Setting aside the assassination of Kirk for a second, more data out today that the US economy is not "booming" but rather is experiencing the first symptoms of stagflation. Back to Kirk, video of the shooter says that he is of college age. Seems to be a decent shot. Wonder who his next target will ...

Olo

All the games on Stan. Very good.

Olo

Donaldson gets the mandatory 1 week no play period on returning to the squad?
I guess it is a good time to give Tane a run. JOC on the bench as cover.

Olo

Everybody miss tackles and I've seen him make a few good tackles. He's not Danny Cipriani/Andrew Merhtens/Quade Cooper shit. He's got heart plus it's not his job to be a top defender, being adequate is enough. No, get his head out of the way, avoid more concussions. Actually I saw the tackle using ...

Olo

Someone mentioned Will Pucovski. How did they know he had to pack it in?

Olo

Apparently he passed HIA 2 earlier today so if cleared on the next test it will not be regarded as a concussion. I dunno. I would be getting him fully checked out before allowing him to play again. Checked out, how? I don't think they're able to see what's going on (evidence of significant accumula...

Olo

Regardless, the point he got yanked he was well and truly f**ked. He was pulled because he felt hamstring tightness and then the video official called him for an HIA when he had already departed. Whatever it was he was running on fumes. Yes, he was pulling in the big ones. Has not played for a whil...

Lynagh failed another HIA yesterday. That’s 4 for the year. That should be him this year. No need to risk your health. That should be him, for life to be honest. I get the pressure he must be under but that's f-cked. Some people just aren't built to bash heads with human dump trucks at speed. He's ...

Olo

Donaldson seems like he is ready to go so hopefully can be on the bench this week? They need to be very careful with Lynagh moving forward and we need a few other options. Parling is the new Leicester coach so likely Schmitty can’t talk him into leaving JOC with the Wobs through the Bled.

Olo

Argies scrum is not great missing a few first choice. We need to start Slipper and AAA next week with Bell and TT on the bench. I think we can get the upper hand early at scrum time.

Olo

I thought he was very hard on Australia in the first half, particularly the first 20. We could not catch a break. In the second half many of his calls both ways were hard to understand. He lost control of the game.

Olo

Passed through on a boat in 2023. Stayed about a week.
Great town. Most of them in North Queensland are very nice.

Olo

Lynagh had a poor game. They targeted him and went through his area a lot. He needs to work on his defence. Being caught in two minds and not making a tackle is not on. Our worst performance of the RC so far so happy to take the win. Exceptional grit and determination shown to pull the W. No Skelto...

The first yellow was bizarre and not a standard applied at the end. Very odd. Dumb comment. They'd given away 5 off-sides in the 5m in the first half, and that was the 2nd in a row in 2nd half. Always a yellow. It's not the YC that irked me. That one was within reasonable. But there were several oc...

Olo

I dunno why Joe don't like LSL. Me neither. Unless it’s a personality issue, I can only presume that LSL is scoring bad KPIs in metrics that we don’t have access to. He has the grunt and the ticker but maybe not the polish on his game…….yet. In those games he played against the BILs he was very phy...

Olo

Nah. He is always there or there abouts.
Only other options are to switch him with Jorgo or play JAS at 15, which means changing the midfield.
Jorgo should stay where he is, as should JAS and Lenny. No-one outside of the squad has played 15 at test level.

No question.

He is very good at 15 and has a great rugby brain.

Olo

They would have an incredible side.
Shame.

Olo

Australia were a bunch of shit pigs. f**king useless. Moleka... who picks a 10 that cannot kick. Neither of these sides should progress further! Fans screaming USA, USA. May as well have been chanting adolf hitler. Ref was quick to award the USA at the breakdown for turnovers but not so Oz. It was ...

Good luck to him
He might yet want to play in a home World Cup.

We hope. Looks like he will become a mega star in the other code.

Marky Mark is tearing it up in Loig. We will not see him back any time soon.
Good luck to him

Hope AAA and Slipper are good to go. Play them for 40 and then bring in Bell and TT with either hooker and we could well dominate the scrum right through. We need to be smart. So far the Wallabiews have been excellent on the counter from broken play. Los Pumas are better. We cannot just kick the bal...

Olo

Good to get AAA back but Nonggorr has been going well. Same with Slipper and Robertson. Maybe start with the old blokes and bring Bell and TT on early in the second? Wright will be missed but we have a few coming back in. Tom Lynagh to start. JOC on the pine? LSL straight into he starting side for me.

Olo

He is probably a better fullback than 13 right now but good to keep he and Lenny together building that combination.

Olo

Then we will have 3 midgets at the back. Muirhead is 183cm Yep, only a smidge shorter than Kells, Wright ot Campbell. He looks shorter. Bring him into the squad but Kellaway starts at 15. JAS the other option but this means we have to shuffle the centres. Any news on Wrights injury? Is he gone till...

Olo

LSL already in the squad and a straight swap for the missing Big Willie. Williams off the bench and maybe Amotesero joins the squad.
