We have some very good prospects coming through along with Lynagh. Creighton, HMP, Meredith etc.

Olo

I’d go for that too but I reckon Schmitty will start Donno with Lynagh on the bench if fit in the first. Looking ahead to the next RWC it will be Lynagh with HMO,Creighton and/or Meredith you would think. I doubt Donaldson will be in the mix. However we are where we are right now and Donaldson seems...

Olo

JOC better defensively and will be good at finishing out games.

Olo

I would have taken Foley.
JOC on the bench will be a good call if needed. Start with Lynagh.

Olo

Tasty backrow.

Olo

Decent side. Lots of beef.

Olo

QC is off playing flag NFL for Australia. Foley or JOC likely additions. Could be a defining moment for young Tom Lynagh. Too soon for sure but cometh the hour………..
Not sure who else it could be?

Olo

Larkham had a great kicking game but preferred to run when possible. The quintessential Oz 10.

Foley or Cooper would have been good to have in the squad as player/coach, mostly the latter. Both true 10s.

They should have done it just for fun against one the shitter provincial sides. Like The Force v The Antipodean Lions.

Maybe we can borrow a few back for the AUNZ game?

Olo

Problem is that he is not a good 10, never was. I’d have him ahead of Donaldson TBF. If Lolesio is right then he will start because Lynagh is not quite there in experience. Lynagh is the most complete package but a long way from the finished product. Yes, the recent head knocks are a worry and he wi...

Olo

I would have White/Lynagh with Tate/Donno on the bench.

Hope Skelton and Valetini are back. Start Bell and only one of McReight and Tiz make the 23. McReight for sure. Hooper gets his bench spot.

It’s a big ask but I would start Lynagh. LoLo on the pine.

Olo

What is the medium term outlook for Bobby V and Big Willie? Will they be right for the first test?

Olo

fudge Jake Gordon.

Wilson may not have been there if Bobby V was fit. Anyone for captain except f**king Jake Gordon

Olo

HMP a good prospect as is Creighton. Neither are ready for test footy yet.
It’s a decent Reds side but missing their stars in the pack. Still will give the BI and Antips a run for their money.
Pakeho and Nasser on the bench.

Olo

Worth putting the Western Force team in, too, since this is a game between 2 sides: Western Force team list Starting XV; Tom Robertson, Brandon Paenga-Amosa, Ollie Hoskins, Sam Carter, Darcy Swain, Will Harris, Nick Champion de Crespigny, Vaiolini Ekuasi; Nic White (c), Alex Harford, Dylan Pietsch,...

Looks weak

There was also an ongoing diplomatic process between the USA and Iran regarding nukes in Iran. Sure, it may not have been getting anywhere with this new administration, but it was in place. To then attack the other country in that process without provocation is an act of war. Then Trump turns around...

Except that his own intelligence agencies have told him that there is no indication that Iran are actually even considering building a nuclear weapon. After telling the world yesterday that he would wait two weeks before making a decision on joining Israels action against Iran, he now attacks them ...

This has to be the illegal act which sees him impeached . What a cocksucker. And to think the Americans elected him……..twice. Nothing else to say Laws of the USA are the focus. If the Tangerine Turd hasn't broken any of those, wondering if Congress will impeach is wasted time. I believe he is not a...

What a f**king clown

Olo

I think Farrell will be happy enough. They showed a strong scrum and cohesion in parts.
They got smoked on the outside on counter attack. Not a bad start.
Pumas gonna Puma. Great win for them and they showed up for the big kill.

Olo

Inspired leadership in times of crises: In an appearance on the White House lawn, President Trump just declined to answer a question about whether the U.S. will strike Iranian nuclear facilities. “I may do it,” he said. “I may not do it. I mean, nobody knows what I’m going to do.” Least of all the ...

And Tom Wright has been playing the house down at 15

Olo

It’s for the Fiji game. Could be a few tweaks for the Lions tests.
Not a bad squad.

Returning back to the topic, in all the footage I see about retirees talking about retirement, they advise working-age people to transition towards a retirement-like lifestyle, years before retirement actually happens. Personally, I know I'll need to incorporate daily physical exercise, regular rec...

If you are in a position to, buy an old house or boat or car and restore it. Projects are good value and some can make you a few bucks if thats your thing. Go at your own pace.
Keep busy but not too busy. Take time to smell the roses.

Olo

Hats off to the Saffas. They did what they needed to do. A good win.
Congrats.

Olo

Good player no doubt

Olo

Australia batted much better on the pitch that was a minefield. Then today when Oz had their last 2 in and now for the SA innings the pitch has behaved. SA will win this with the pitch being the biggest factor.
It was a good toss to win.

Olo

Why is Marnus opening and Green at 3? Makes no sense. And Green is not bowling. Not sure he commands a place unless as an all rounder. Slug gets that spot ahead of him right now. Pitch has been tough. Yes, the slope has helped the bowlers but there has not been a single player who has looked fluid w...

Olo

Hell of a pitch. 28 wickets in 2 days with the best two sides in the world playing.

Olo

Pitch is a bit of a minefield. Poms want this match done and dusted ASAP.

Olo

Not a bad effort by Queensland to score a single try considering what they are working with

Kerevi looks sharp. Some good offloads and assists. Got to be there.

Leaving out McReight and Tizzano is bold
