Very fair point - RFU pretty big and financial juggernaut - You could well be right....

Yeah, the schedule coming south is a bit tighter than going north, given there are several chances each year for a one-off Test at Twickenham, as opposed to a full tour. It seems to be mainly a sticking point over cash. Hopefully both parties can agree soon. Pity, as we really should have seen a 1/2 clash between these teams by now.

Hopefully, after this weekend, that 1 v 2 clash will be Bled game 1 next year

As we rub our hands in glee in anticipation of ranking points, if the unthinkable happens and the Wallabies lose, it puts the POMs another step closer to challenging for #1 spot.
Jones is not going to take that lightly. He has always done well in understanding what games are big games in his forward planning.

It's neither unthinkable and nor likely that the Soap Dodgers will give us a bath.
I reckon it is about even stevens.
i sincerely hope Matt Phillips gets a guernsey for this test, and for many tests after this one. I look forward to years of reading his name being buggered up by lazy posters and journalists. Why only this week I read about a Matt "Phillip" in the SMH (the first time I read of a Matt Philips I'm going to christen him Light Globe!).
Young Matt's got some company in the mangled nomenclature club even in this team: there's Ned Hanigan, Nick Phibbs and Tevita Kurindrani. Past Wallabies who were in this crowd include Greg Cornelson, Owen Finnegan, Matt Rogers, Nick White, Chris Whittaker, Ben Robinson and Nick Styles. Throw in a few fringe players such as Cam Clarke, Laurie Weekes and Dan Parkes and we've almost got a team. A coach? It's gotta be either Steve Hanson, Brad Thorn or Rod McQueen. A manager? None other than John O'Neil. Surely this team'd have to train at TG Milner Field. Maybe Kieran Reed and Adam Thompson could provide some opposition. I'll get on to Peter Fitzsimmons to do an article.
The Moore Park clubs often play games against each other, but not in their respective codes. I'd suggest my MNC lot have a crack at cricket; Michael Clark, Stuart Clarke, Nathan Lyons and Kerry O'Keefe would be the obvious choices to help them with batting and bowling.

Good luck with that Sully, I've been trying to make a similar point about all the backs for about 2 years. The only stable numbers in the current team are 9 & 13 and this is of course subject to change in the future. But prepare for incoming screams about people playing their numbered positions.

In terms of the game, yes. In terms of potential future jersey slots, particularly when Folau returns, Cheika is always saying something.
