Lolesio and kellaways defense is horrible need to bring Donaldson on early this game

There is only 6 days between Scotland and Ireland game so probably just giving Fraser a rest to be right for that one, he could still bring him off the bench when the game opens up, he would make a good impact with Tate, Lukhan etc. Potter is very good in the air like JAS so maybe planning a...

Yep we need to throw the kitchen sink at him based on current form. It would be a huge kick in the guts to only have him until the Lions with the progress he has shown

Would love to see Edmed and Potter get a run but you can’t do it this game. If we lose this one then play them against Ireland. I think we need to start Skelton and bring back Wilson and see if we can make the lineout work. If it implodes then we can bring LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) or Williams etc off the bench.

Not many players will start 4 games back to back as it is a tough tour so giving someone like Williams a rest now makes sense and obviously Joe wants to see what Uru, Kerevi and Skelton can bring to the table as well as trying to build his own “bomb squad” and he likes what Tate, LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) and gleeson...

Yes exactly we need to remember we have lost a lot of games to England purely off the back of their scrum dominance so when we get parity there, then anything else he can do is a bonus

What a win, best performance for years. Ikitau was amazing at 12. Bell was huge but not sure he can play 70 mins every week, we really need to develop some more prop depth

Probably means Kerevi is still not up to scratch if they are looking at moving Ikitau to 12. Conservative option would have been to shift Stewart over from the A team when Paisami got injured. But I am also of the opinion of f*ck it, we are 9th in the world, let's throw a hail mary and...

I would assume that horse has bolted. He was only on a temporary contract and then once getting injured for most of the season they would be silly to contract him further.

Yeah I would say that would be pretty close with Palu, Burey and Pasitoa pushing for spots or filling the bench. Nic White obviously there as well but hopefully Cron gives IFL the reins a bit more now.

I think there is a bit of genuine excitement building with Sua'ali'i in and Kerevi and Skelton back. Hopefully the media can help create a bit more interest around the tour. That is probably until we get belted. Our mate Hamish made a comment the other day around how Joseph has paid for...

So 12 from force would be; Robertson / Hoopert/ BPA / Horton / Swain / Williams / Tizzano / Harris / White / Donaldson / Stewart / Potter / I think I saw Harris in a photo

You would have to say that Michael Lynagh, Brendan Nasser and Peter Jorgensen had quite a lot of talent in their left nuts, hopefully we keep churning out more sons of Wallabies.

Happy to see Tupou there and looking like he is training and not in some sort of Rebab group. Really need him fit and firing. Poreki back is positive and Joseph in there hopefully adds a bit of excitement to the group, bringing in a couple of overseas players will hopefully add more...

I would like to see Sua'ali'i start against Bristol on November 8th and England A on Nov 17th. Then if he completely dominates quickly transfer him over to the Wallabies squad for the last 2 tests. Would rather see him play than hold tackle bags for the main squad. That same strategy...

Only watched 20 min highlights but seemed like a pretty good performance, always good for team bonding to get an away win. A lot of quality to come in to the team later as well so hopefully building for a good 2025

Yes they do need to be careful they don’t fall into a similar position as they have in the past where the “A” team is getting plenty of game time, then Australia A is basically the “C” team and you end up with all these guys in the middle not getting game time anywhere as they are on fringe of...

And can you clarify for me, why is this happening at the same time as the super rugby under 19 comp? Wouldn’t there be a crossover of some players? I am from WA so might be missing something with the pathways over East

Don’t forget champion de Crespigny, started 40 odd games in top 14 so must be alright

Would be keen to see Harry Potter involved if he does well on the forces tour. Champion De Crespigny might be worth a look as well And definitely edmed but I would put him with the main squad, just watched his last game for nth Harbour, was all class
