Gene and Paul hating it!

I've seen some much more recent interviews with Ace, still had that same crazy laugh.

Mine to, 1980 at Lang Park. Saw them again in the late 90's or maybe early 2000's when Ace had rejoined the band.

RIP Space Man

Reds now have 4 good/decent flyhalves, 3 good inside centres, one good winger and bugger all at fullback. Campbell is serviceable super rugby fullback. HMP and Volavola can play there too. I’m a reds’ fan and would immediately swap him for the back/up fullback at any of the other Oz SR teams. At hi...

I think they all looked a bit off. Long set of games. One too many for our boys. The Kiwis just had France H to contend with. Nobody has stood up at 10. For all the shit Noah got hung on him, he was comfortably better than the performances we've seen out of Lynagh, Tane and JOC. Bring back Carter a...

You seem emotional, are you still on a grand final celebratory bender like you're a Johns brother in 1997? I wish! I just find it interesting when grown men make comment on kids who live in a fish bowl (far exceeding anything they’ve experienced) based on nothing but what they hear via the media. A...

Don't mind the idea of RC every 4 years.

In between, we still need to play the AB's every year for the Bled, one off tests, winner take all. Might have a chance of finally getting it back!

mojo

Great game, not sure how the Broncs managed to pull it off, but very happy the Panthers and Cleary are gone for the year.

Not a great first half from the Broncs. Too many errors and stupid penalties. No way you can compete with the Panthers with that many fvck ups.

Go Lions, Brisbane Lions, we'll kick the winning score ...

So what happened in the Bled?

Into the semis of the 200 at the world champs. Will be amazing if he can make the final as a 17yo schoolboy. I doubt he will. Already an incredible effort - he's so skinny compared to all the older competitors. Won't start hitting his stride until the world championships after next, or maybe the on...

Nic White officially retires... again. It looks like Gordon will be back starting. I think they missed an opportunity not bringing in a new 9 against the Pumas. Would have been good to see what Lonergan could do at test level, or maybe even Wilson. Barring injuries you would imagine it will now be ...

Wallabies have been dreadful competing for the high ball all year. The only upside is that from what I've seen the ABs have been fairly dire as well so maybe we can do better against them. Massive worry though. Is it too late to recall Izzy? Just abandon the tactic all together unless it's Suaalii ...

If the concussion concern was a false alarm, stick with Lynagh. He hasn't been great, but not terrible either. Saturday was his first game back after what, 5 weeks or so? Should be better this week.

Sentenced to life, 33 year non parole period. She's 50 now, hopefully never gets out.

Super Rugby AU is a 3 round competition - do you believe that this should be the third tier? 3 rounds isn't enough for any tier. Yep. This is a stop gap to get more miles on the tires, but its a start. Not sure why they wouldn't have made it a 6 round home and away comp. $$$ I suppose.

Watched the no stoppage version of both SA games last night on Stan… Mcreight is the best 7 since McCaw. He just knows where the game is going to be 2 or 3 rucks ahead of everyone else. I’ll happily die on that hill. Yep. Not quite at Smith level yet, but getting there. Surprised he's only got 31 c...

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 ...

Should be a tough couple of games for the Wobs. Sometimes the Argies don't travel too well, but they should be able to put together at least 1 good performance. Hopefully some of our recently injured are available - Lynagh, Wilson, Slipper, White, JAS could all be available. LSL in for Skelton. I'd ...

David Campese @Davidcampese11 I can see why Joe Schmidt has never won a RWC. He has no idea about rugby. Clueless . This shows us why. Very happy for James who should have been on the bench for the Lions. Ben at 10. Under kiss it is not going to look any better. https://x.com/Davidcampese11/status/...

Assuming JOC is going to be asked to play the full 80.

At altitude.

What could possibli go wrong?

Doran is saying that Tupou might be injured for the first test, meaning we need to play 80 minutes without dropping a ball. Boks will genuinely be able to win a scrum penalty every time they get the feed as Ox will simply eviscerate Nonggorr, Robbo (who is only cosplaying as a THP), Slipper (LHP). ...

Yes, I agree to blooding youngsters but the bigger problem is being a halfback is a lost art in Australia. Both Tate and Jake are athletes first then a halfback. I see a lot of Gregan in how White plays. He needs to pass on that knowledge. He needs to be around the camp till end of year. Also, Lyna...

75. Will we get too 100?

FWIW, as pissed off as I was at the time, we shouldn't have been in a position for a refereeing call to decide the match. Playing well for 30 minutes won't win you a test against good opposition.

mojo

I think we need to start exposing some of the next crop of 9's to test Rugby. We haven't had a great 9 since Genia was at his peak. White, Gordon and Tate are all good at their best but not consistently. Give a Wilson, Thomas or Werchon some time in camp and a run off the bench, see how they handle ...

Just on the likely Wallabies' lineup... Schmidt going back to a 5/3 split with Faessler and Kellaway on the bench. Tizzano to drop out with either Hooper or Gleeson starting. Valetini and AAA both out through injury which is going to really f**king suck. :(( Yeah, need both Tupou and Gleeson/Hooper...

Yep. Thats what are are doing. :nod: Seriously though, other than JAS (who isn't a giant) there are almost no big centres in Aussie soup teams. We need some big bodies, even just as options.

Nice work. Well and truly proved he is up to the level.

You guys from poachy nations can go and argue about who are the worst poaches in another thread.

Pretty much everyone, with the exception of the Saffas and Argies.
