Re: Australian Rugby needs a Crawford report
No one in the world outside NSW/QL, Auckland and North England are thinking about League, when they hear the word rugby. They either don't know it exists or don't care. Yeah, that's why there are no Fijians, Tongans, Samoans, or Cook Islanders busting their guts to get a loig contract. All those gu...

Re: Australian Rugby needs a Crawford report
Love it. As much as the NRL types may be loving this. The Wallabies do represent the Australian national brand. For the Wallabies to be a joke isn’t, while not catastrophic, good for the country. Yep, safe to say there is a global stereotype that 'Aussies love rugby'.. particularly amongst national...

Re: Wallabies 2023
There may still be a Rod Macqueen out there to replace Eddie (although that’s not a flattering analogy for the far more likable Greg Smith). Tough times and very hard to see Wallaby rugby in this state. Apart from some of Eddie's weird selections, we just do not have the depth to do without both Tu...

Under Rennie they beat both SA and NZ... SA more than once... ran France close in Paris last Autumn 30-29 and only lost to Ireland in Dublin last year 13-10.... they looked a decent side... It's not that easy to compare results, without looking at the team lists of the sides. Rennie had some very g...

Re: Wallabies 2023
It could be that Valetini is not buying into EJs game plan, along with White and Kerevi. Most likely a few others too. The majority of fans and experts in the know now question Jones’ methods and selections so why not the playing group? So the anti Eddie group want to go down in flames? :uhoh: No. ...

I wonder if Kerevi is thinking he should of swapped to Fiji? Not really suggesting it seriously, but he was certainly not involved a lot was he? Not sure if his injury is keeping him quiet or what? Would he even make the team ahead of Josua Tuisova though? That's the crazy bit. Looking at this Wall...

Re: Wallabies 2023
As you know, your 10 doesn't need to be the kicker - seems like a full half of the teams are using a fullback or winger. If I were an Aussie player on the bubble of selection, I'd be kicking sticks in every spare moment. A hooker was England's goal kicker back in the seventies: John Gray.
