well done to newington the deserving champions and scots, also joeys for taking out 10 out of 12 of the opens titles.

Bit confused with the choice of 'manbear' over piggy robinson. he appeared sluggish in both trials, but again i feel that his ability to clean 60kgs has once again impressed the selectors.

great post GaffaCHinO,

Pocock does have standards. However I believe JOC (James O'Connor) was poorly advised (mainly by his dad) and Mitchell genuinely wished to live in NSW, too bad they have a shocking team thus far. As for Giteau, dead on, taking the 4 million for the Force potentially ruined his wallabies career. But I wouldn't be...

Would love to see how Shipperly goes in the international level. Also it would be interesting to see how Hooper would impact the game if he is brought on a bit earlier than last test, his impact in the rucks and running the ball was noticeable to say the least.

Newington over Shore seems a sound bet yet an upset is possible with the weather. Scots vs View will be interesting as it will feature arguably the best backline (Scots) vs the best backrow (View). Weather could decide the outcome and i would expect the view backs to struggle. Would be good to...

Could happen but I suspect the Newington centre combination will tear the Shore backline to pieces. However, an upset is possible.

You've been a member since Thursday.... you have no contacts just a blatant view boy bias.

I think whitely will make GPS 1's captain

Sheehan lived in Sydney and went to the rugby boarding school St Joseph's College Hunters Hill (Joeys). The Force still train there when they have a game in the east, and he looked at home on the pitch.

I feel that Quade would have been an absolutely mess in the weather. And the addition of rush defence and a possible hesitation to step after his injury could have seen the game take a whole different turn in Scotland's favour. I watched highlights of the world cup game against Ireland and his...

I would say Jones could easily challenge the wingers in the 1's if not 2's and Pulver could do the same in 2's. However this is a pretty solid team and i would expect it to be mostly correct especially the likes of Whitely, Rorke, Dempsey, Horowitz, Kellaway, Robertson. Also confused as...

I think Harris deserves another shot. But i'm not looking forward to the game. My prediction is that we're going to be given a hiding by the Wales boys and hopefully that will wake the coaching staff up in terms of tactics and selections.

This actually changed my outlook, as a force fan i was devastated when i heard news of Pocock's departure however this was lessened when i heard he was moving to the Brumbies. The Brumbies have built up a strong team and Pocock will be a valuable addition, the news that Hooper was moving the the...

I agree with this partially, i think the players and the coaching staff are to blame. The wallabies were attempting to kick rather than run in the first 10 mins and it worked out horribly, obviously the tactics are to blame however neither Genia or Barnes took initiative to change game plans so...

Any news on how close the Force are to getting a new coach? I've been waiting for an announcement

I'm positive he was in the book at no.5 for the Newington firsts (he's a dragon slayer) , it seems unlikely that joeys could poach such a talent. Could anyone at Joeys or Newington now please clear this up?

Whilst I respect your blatant bias that you flaunt throughout your posts, the facts are that Riverview have failed to impress in the trials thus far. However I acknowledge the potential they have, especially in their forward pack, namely the backrow, but their backs are young and seem one...

As of when? i recall watching him develop in the Newington 16A's

they have the potential to win, they just need to get the form back and they'll be a menace
