He is available at any time, last I saw on insta he is on holidays in Croatia. I dare say he will do the full preseason in Japan like Korevi last season so will prob opt out of any november tour but RC a chance if Rennie wants him

not if we pick QC (Quade Cooper), SK, and MK

 

[Joe Blow]

With the current injuries one would think that he may be useful?

 

[PhilClinton]

Probably need to have a serious assessment of Quades injury and whether he stays in the squad or they select Arnold

 

[Joe Blow]

I would opt for QC (Quade Cooper) and two others. I think we are really lacking in the playmaking stakes and it does not look like JOC (James O'Connor) is the answer

I actually think Noah has done well. His goal kicking is literally 100% and even at Suncorp when the Wallabies got into England red zone we looked pretty good, can’t fault him for things like not taking easy points on offer.

I’m not certain the addition of Quade to the side fixes the areas where we have lacked execution.

 

[Froggy]

I thought Noah's kicking out of hand was a bit short and Foley-esq on Saturday, rest of his game fine. If Hodge is going to play 15 next week (seems logical) I would be looking for him to get us out of our quarter.

 

[MarkJ]

The only worry with that is he seems to get charged down a bit. His kicking action looks to be a bit slow or maybe he just has a lower trajectory on his kicks. Pretty certain he got charged down in the Australia A game against Samoa.

 

[Drew]

But if he stands 5 metres behind Lolo we still get an extra 15-20 on the kick.

Noah has done well and is improving but still good to have another very good option in QC (Quade Cooper). JOC (James O'Connor) looks out of sorts and the young blokes in Oz A have also been going well but are not yet ready.
Agree that Hodge is the logical choice at 15 now.

 

[wamberal]

Games are won up front. Bring Arnold back, please.

 

[Joe Blow]

They need to sign one or more of these blokes back in Oz

Georgina Robinson dropping hints LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) might be called up?

Salakaia-Loto in frame as Wallabies hit with injury carnage

Unwanted by the Wallabies at the start of the year, Queensland Reds second-rower Lukhan Salakaia-Loto could be called upon for the series decider in Sydney.

So how fucked are we for next game? Seems like half the squad are injured.

Is Holloway still injured? Frost whilst tall is certainly not the physical presence we need at the breakdown against the poms
