Just wondering where did you hear or read that Bell is predicted to be back in July?

Have not had a chance to post about the Tahs win on Friday night until now. While I have no doubt that every player gives 110% week in and week out, there was something different about how they played on Friday night. For me, the forwards were enormous, not since Jacques Potgeiter have I seen...

The dark side has clouded your mind! The force is strong with Kurtley.

While unlikely, I hope Kurtley shoots the lights out for the western force and as a result makes the Wallabies 15 at fly half and brings back the Bledisloe.

Apologies as wasn't having a go at your post. I just can't see the Tahs winning consistently without a good fly half. It is that simple.

We need a fly half who can pass, kick, create space, split the defence and defend. New Zealand fly halves are the best at this, Mo'unga, Barret, Carter, Spencer to name a few. I see Will Harrison as the one with the most potential. I like Edmed but can't see him take the line on to many times...

Don't worry people, the only way is up from here.

Why can't we just all be friends?

Like I said on the Fiji match thread, careful McReight is sacred on this site.

Be careful my friend, there are a few players in this team that are considered sacred on this forum. McReight is one of them. Been saying for a while they should be playing a bigger back rower than McReight. Have not watched the games yet but by all reports on here looks as though I wasn't far off.

Ah yes perhaps potential to have that go about him over time. My bad. We won't know if he isn't given a go. Not saying drop Valentini even though he has been a bit quiet. Just resting him. I think he has played huge minutes this year and might benefit from a rest.

Yes lumbering giants of quivering meat in other positions. This is going to be hugely unpopular here, however I would like to see Gleeson given a go at 8 with Valentini on the bench. Valentini is great at Super Rugby level but lately has been reminding me of Cliffy Palu, not bringing a lot to...

True, McReight is a good defender and a great link player as well. Note, I wasn't characterising McReight so much a pilferer he however he does have a smaller frame than many back rowers today. I think the way the game has evolved you get more out of having a bigger back row. I like the idea of...

I was one of the one's wanting a bigger body at 7 than McReight, however I thought McReight had a awesome game against Georgia and I doubt Eddie will replace him at this stage. I would also probably play him this game as defence will be key against Fiji and your going to need two of the back...

Well the backrow were not any worse against the All Blacks in Melbourne than they were against the French on the weekend. Tom Hooper has played 4 games this year (4 zip) and Rob Valentini has played 5 games this year (5 zip). McReight I think has started three times this year for 3 zip. We will...
