    Rugby Championship 2025: Wallabies v Argentina

    I like the idea of Jorgensen at 15, he has been outstanding and deserves the shot and has openly said he wants to play there. Let's give the kid a crack. We have plenty of good wing options

    Rugby Championship 2025: Wallabies v Argentina

    Yes disappointing to lose Gleeson as he was looking good in that bench role. Will be really interested to see which one of the 4 standout backrowers Joe puts on the bench. Likely Hooper but that will be very harsh. I think they should rest White and give Lonergan a debut off the bench in...

    Rugby Championship 2025 : South Africa v Australia Round 2

    Just saw another one. 65th minute, Kwagga on Ikitau, lifting in the tackle and driving into the ground. Just seems unnecessary and intentionally trying to cause injury

    Exactly, thought that was pretty clear but everyone seems to have missed it

    Rugby Championship 2025: South Africa v Australia

    Are we expecting Skelton to be flying straight back to Europe after the next test or are we expecting him to stick around for longer? I think if this is his last test then we just keep LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) on ice until the home tests and then he can come straight into starting side and rip in

    Rugby Championship 2025: South Africa v Australia

    Was impressed by Nonggorr’s game. Williams big impact off the bench again 2nd week in a row. Definitely out bombed the bomb squad. Expect springboks to make wholesale changes for next week. Sentiment could change very quickly for them, from having great depth and innovators etc to suddenly...

    Rugby Championship 2025: South Africa v Australia

    Is there anything stopping them changing the 23 between now and the start of the game? Surely they will come to their senses and bring in Edmed for Gleeson or NCD. Possibly just playing mind games. Rassie will probably change his from what he named Monday as well

    Wallabies v Lions - 3rd Test, Accor Stadium, Saturday 2 August

    Looking back now on the series I do think the coaching team should be given some credit. Most supporters would have taken 2-1 at start of series There were a couple of questionable selections and possible error with holding back Skelton from first test but need to give them credit for a very...

    Wallabies 2025

    I think it is just going to be similar to how they treated gleeson and hooper this year. If there were players available that were playing just as good they would have been picked, but gleeson and Hooper made it impossible not to pick them. So if a player is tearing it up in France , Uk etc...

    Wallabies 2025

    Good call, I can get around that. Take Donno and Edmed as the preferred 10's for the 2 tests with Meredith taken as a development player and then Keunzle also in the squad as a utility covering 10-15

    Wallabies 2025

    Definitely won’t be O’Connor, heard him on a podcast the other day and he was pretty clear he was flying straight out for a quick holiday on the way to Uk. We need to move on anyway

    Wallabies v Lions - 3rd Test, Accor Stadium, Saturday 2 August

    Very happy to see Williams impact off the bench with at least 3 crucial plays, after a lot of supporters and media calling for his head. Tupou and Nic white also shutting up the critics and vindicating coaches selections

    Wallabies v Lions - 3rd Test, Accor Stadium, Saturday 2 August

    Credit to the players and coaches to get up for this game and put in such a good performance, showed how much they wanted it. Great to send all the lions and their fans home with a loss. I think it’s a shame we start TRC with springboks away back to back, hopefully that doesnt kill this...

    Wallabies 2025

    Yep they need to just pull the trigger for TRC and go with Tate and Lonergan as the 2 halves. They might need to keep White in the squad as an emergency back up, given there is a pretty big drop off in quality after that (not sure white would be wanting to tour sth Africa though to be a squad...
