    Western Force 2024

    Doesn’t take long for fans of players ex club to show their appreciation for 12 years and over 100 games service, possibly why they only get 5-8000 to a game

    Refereeing decisions

    Not to mention when Kafer criticised the Brumbies in general and Pocock in particular for questioning Gardner when he ruled a five metre scrum to the Jaguares for being held up when the replays showed they were short of the line from a maul should have been Brumbies ball, the Jaguares scored a...

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    The concerning thing for me is that this discussion appeared to start in the wider media with the question of which team will go Force, Brumbies or Rebels. For the life of me I cannot see how this addresses the issues with Super Rugby that I have seen raised over several years in the media and...

    Brumbies 2017

    Sometimes wonder if the people who comment in this forum actually watch the games. So the coach of a team which has made the finals the last four years when he has been backs coach,co coach and head coach doesn't know how to attack despite being the leading try scoring team from Australia this...

    The Wallabies Thread

    The only myth about Phipps is that it is just his passing which is an issue. He makes several mistakes every game wether being caught at the breakdown inaccurate passing muffed kicks or brain snaps like the Bledisloe in Sydney last year. Whilst his speed to breakdown is praised no one mentions...

    Wallabies vs England, Sydney, 3rd Test, 25 June @ 8:00pm

    So immediately after the test which we lose the coach signals that the best performed Australian back will have his position taken by a player not even playing in this country. Did anyone see Giteau's performance in the Top14 final because I did and I am not seeing any answers to Australia...

    Wallabies vs England, Sydney, 3rd Test, 25 June @ 8:00pm

    After a very ordinary performance in the second test Phipps directly contributed to the last 10 points against Australia with a poor pass to Folau which led to a turnover and subsequent England try within a couple of phases and then a penalty for taking out the half without the ball at the...

    The Wallabies Thread

    How does a player who wasn't considered good enough for the games that mattered at the RWC and whose last important test saw him yellowed carded arguably costing his team any winning chance and who has been unable to gain a regular club position in a competition belittled in the SH as not...

    Brumbies 2016

    Suppose that says something about Australian rugby if talent and ability isn't enough. Might be why a number of able and talented Australians are playing overseas.

    Brumbies 2016

    Watched White in Top14 match this weekend. Starred for Montpellier with at least 3 try assist in his 60 mins as well as a very good kicking game with several long touch finders and a couple of deft grubbers reminiscent of his one for Tomane against the Stormers in last years semi win at...

    Brumbies v Crusaders Rd 18 Sat 13 June

    "poor performances has seen him slip...... As Barbarian correctly points out, he has a tendency to make some absolute howlers, as he did in the Crusaders game at times when the Brumbies looked to gain some ascendency....." I do not want to have to defend anyone but just want to see some...
