I'll say this. None of these players were playing that well at that point in their careers. I don't even think Samo got any game time.

Roberts seems like a great signing for the Tahs. Right now the squad is full of high school superstars who aren't used to playing against players as big and as fast as them. Roberts will mark his opposite number, not get bamboozled by a sidestep and take the ball to ground if an offload isn't...

All this talk of Mack Hansen is kinda ridiculous. Did anybody talk about him being a great talent before he went to Ireland? He was kept on the bench at the Brumbies by Tom Banks, who despite his Wallaby caps isn't that great. If nobody had said anything, would we have noticed Mack Hansen left...

If there's one thing that's tried and true for the Waratahs, it's signing a New Zealand second rower who has never broken out of the NPC.

I prefer calling it Bankwest Stadium. I don't need to be reminded that the best stadium in Sydney is in a place with hundreds of bad food options but no good ones.

Perese was pretty good in defence for the Tahs. It was everyone else who was the problem.

Swinton may be the best player in Australia when it comes to ruck security. Leota is better with the ball, but the Wallabies need ruck security more than yet another line breaking big unit.

The first two have been great, but the others I'm pretty meh about.

I mean, this guy got noticed playing club rugby in the UK. Do we know that he wouldn't have been noticed if he was playing club rugby in Sydney.

I think Louis Lynagh has already re-signed for the Harlequins.

Skelton was a bench impact player for much of his Waratahs career, and he was very effective at it. But his last year at the Tahs he was much more active and effective as a starter.

The Tahs seem to be rapidly filling up their roster with dubious prospects. Maybe Tevita Funa is good, but he seems like he's a victim of Manly Sea Eagles cleaning house. Have the Tahs (and Australian rugby clubs in general) given up on trying to sign players from other pro rugby clubs? Isn't...

Good on Greg Holmes for making it another cap at his age, but to what end? If we're unhappy with our current props, we should be blooding new ones. It's not as if Holmes is going to be in the next World Cup. Isn't Pone Fa'amausili worth a try? Hell, I'd rather just let Harry Johnson Holmes have...

He made too many selfish runs last week. Tate is a flashy player, but the first thing a scrumhalf needs to be good at is quick distribution.

I hope Feleti Kaitu’u gets more game time. For the last few years the hooker position has been picking the best of ordinary options for the Wallabies. Kaitu'u may be able to step up to a level Fainga'a, Uelese and BPA haven't.
