    RWC 2019 1/4 Final Wales vs France

    Looks like Jaco is going to have an influence.

    RWC Week 4 matches

    ‘No one will fancy playing wales’ apart from almost every quarter finalist. Though they seem to have the strong support of match officials which goes a long way.

    RWC Pool D - Wallabies v Georgia, Friday 11th October, 9.15pm ADST

    Imagine how hard it is for Eddie Jones! We have him right where we want him - bamboozled by the Cheika rope-a-dope.

    Reds v Brumbies

    We've taken in all those things and more, and an ipad for distraction, though you really only want to use that as a last resort or at least late in the game. Hope you have seats in the shade and looking east. My wife has even taken in ice blocks in a soft cooler, but she regularly makes up...

    Wallabies 2019 Thread

    I think you are missing the opportunities. This is tailor made for commercial success. There are a number of transferable reality TV concepts that would be sufficiently deniable so as to not infringe copyright. 1) Big Brother Wallabies Camp. Get all the backstabbing between coaches and players...

    Australia v England

    I'm not sure the wallabies are capable at present of making any decisions rapidly and reliably. The 'quick tap' requires some sort of clarity of decision making. If they could take the tap after 30s of Genia gesticulating at forwards to set up while standing with his back to the defence (as he...

    Australia v England

    It is all pretty nondescript in terms of an indiscretion so far and the most irritating thing about it is the timing of the penalty - shame about the delay to the week of the England game to bring it up and I wonder about the motivation of the players involved. In that neither AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) nor KB (Kurtley Beale) have a...

    Australia v England

    I get that culture and effort are important, and this seems to be a recurrent focus (at least from the dribs and drabs that percolate out at interviews). But. The messages that come out from the players and coaches are all about trying harder, when from my comfortable seat on the couch it...

    Possibly this is a relatively sanitised version of events.

    Tupou looked 10kg heavier coming back from the buffet breakfasts of SA/Argentina.

    It is a left field route to ratings success.

    They really need to breathalyse Cheika before they let him announce the team.

    Wallabies 2019 Thread

    The problem with making a raft of positional and personnel changes is that the wallabies are probably even more at risk of defeat, and the players moved or freshly selected will carry the can. For example - Samoa 2011, Scotland... well, in 2012, I had erased 2017 from memory and 2018 will go...

    Wallabies v Wales (Cardiff)

    As long as we keep our heads and keep doing the simple things well we can beat anyone. So no, we are pretty much no chance. Though we did have a good half of football against an Argentina side who failed to come back out after halftime a couple of months ago. Maybe Cheika has recorded his...

    Wallabies v Wales (Cardiff)

    Must be training the house down. Or have some sort of Cheika-specific appeal on the turps.
