Agreed Moore has been the standout this year but there were glimpses of the old rampaging TPN in the Baa Baa game and I have a feeling that this weekend he will be back to his dynamite form again. I bloody hope so anyway

I think I might be the only one who thinks the best lineout thrower is Saia Fainga'a

I think it's Moore... Def's not Taf...

Moore is an infinitely better lineout thrower...
I would even prefer Huia Edmonds...

Taf may not be the best... in fact, he's quite unreliable at test level...
But I would say he's no worse than Fainga'a...

Agree on that, but I think Taf offers more physicality than all other hookers... Saia isn't yet at a level to really be pushing either of these guys out of the starting side yet.

Saia is really only filling a spot until someone else steps up...
It might be harsh, but I don't know what he offers the team as he's terrible in the set piece, doesn't really carry the ball up, and loves to give away penalties...
yep only you

Settle Grettel,
I'm a tah's fan and yet I think Moore is better than Taf as a hooker, but I rate McCabe more than Ant, and JOC (James O'Connor) as a better 12 than both. Get over yourself and realise that a huge majority of us put aside club allegiances when talking about the wallabies.

Moore is by far the best Hooker in Australia and by far the best all round package. He is hard, technically profficient, has a big engine and can be relied on to go the distance. His competitors may have some of these attributes but are not the all round package like Moore is.
I would like to see Taf become a bit more refined. His mad man nature on the park makes him an injury liability. We all know he is a tough bastard but if he could only apply it with sounder technique he and the team would be better off.
The hooker needs to be able to go the distance to maintain continuity in the communication at the set piece.

You probably misinterpreted my post. I'm a fan of all provinces in Aus Rugby, though a member of the Reds because I live in Brisbane. Which state someone plays for doesn't bother me. My post was simply mocking Slim's posting format which is always declarative statements followed by trailing fullstops. Not a big deal.

If that's the way you interpreted it then that's your problem...
There is. Try on your profile page.

Just on that Sai'a throwing talk. I think that your thrower is only as good as your jumper and vice versa. That being said Faainga can definitely work on his throwing anyway.
