Re: Wallabies vs B&I Lions - 1st Test - OFFICIAL!!!!!

Still some tickets available. No bronze seating, but silver can be picked up for the bargain price of $360.

To rich for my blood, but hopefully those that have sold a kidney get to watch a decent game.

Re: Wallabies 2025: Revenge of the Schmidt

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 seem...

The fact we don’t actually have an international level fly half is probably a different conversation.

I think Lynagh is probably the most consistent, but I worry ab...

Glad the Reds backline found a bit of form against the Drua, they've been fairly pedestrian the last few weeks. Perhaps Flook made the difference. Obviously it'll be a different story against a much tougher opposition in the Saders, but at least they go in with a bit of momentum.
