Has he thrown one successful lineout this year?
His game vs Moana was great. Good lineouts, looked back to his best in tight.

However, back to regular shitty throwing vs the Reds.

Re: Wallabies 2024 (2023 never happened)

What time did you start drinking? 3. Tupou - the game is months away. 6. Hanigan 8. Bobby V 10. Gordon 12. Paisami Tupou can get in the list if he proves he can do 60mins. Right now he's a bench option at best. Hanigan has had one good game. The 7/8/9 combo of the Reds is too cohesive to ignore. Li...

Re: Wallabies 2024 (2023 never happened)

Here is my team vs Wales based on the season so far. No overseas picks, that's too hard basket, and with the state of Wales, hopefully unnecessary. 1. Bell (first name on team sheet, and not because of his number) 2. Faessler (daylight second. Hope Porecki comes back and gives him some competion). ...

Re: Wallabies 2024 (2023 never happened)

Toole deserves a shot. Might be great. Might be Rod Davies Mk. 2. The Wales games seem as good a time as any. Hes worth 5-15 points a game. These aren't mugs he's running around either. His defence seems better this year too. If kellaway and Nawaqanitawase are the other members of the back three, t...

Hopefully Brumbies turn it around. Possibly coasting on last year's performance where they were the only half decent Australian team. Getting rid of the the tiny 2 is a good change. Bench backs look very weak, so they'll need a bit of luck with injuries. Wouldn't be surprised if they take it though...

Actually not him, the other side. The islander looking guy with the beard. Peni Ravai, an absolute unit. Built like a bodybuilder, kinda similar physique to Joe Marler. Judging by the few minutes he played, he would bench press Joe Marler. I can bench press Joe Marler. Ravi could shoulder press him.
