Im watching the Force-Canes trial right now and Haylett Petty should be a Wallaby pretty soon

Any insight on how the big unit Arnold is looking at training? will Walton finally get a look in off the bench or is Richie the next 'big thing'

Timani in the long term should really bee looked at as a no.8. His physique is never going to make him a perfect lock but he pretty much fits the exact bill for the job and has improved his handling significantly. Now that the rebs have Retallick, Cummins and Jeffries as viable 2nd choice locks...

Can anyone enlighten me as to who the big lad between Albert and Tev is?

If you think people on these forums will be taking supplements, you've got the wrong idea... More of a pie and chips crowd

anybody know Toleofoa's stats?

Senio Toleofoa is also training preseason with the tahs. It would seem he is in high contention for that last lock spot. Seems to be a good prospect to me, but I'd prefer someone with experience seeing as we also Have Lousi doing the exact same development

so I just saw this pic of Fotu Auelua training with the Tah's in pre season (10 minutes after i said the force should nab him on their thread) check it out, good depth cover?

The Force could do worse that pick up Fotu Auelua as back row cover, pretty sure he has been released from his Brumbies contract. Is he having injury issues or do they think that Vaea has displaced him in the squad?

I'd like to be upbeat about it, but a 28 year old non english speaking fullback who has never played outside of Japan being Coached by one of the biggest flops in history... not a great recipe in my mind

I find this Thread pretty insulting to the true greatest player ever: Brendan Mckibbin

I'd like to think Roachy will begin to see some proper time, Taf won't last forever as much as we want him to and In my mind he's as good a Hooker as Latu, he just plays in a completely different frame: a 3rd flanker rather than a 3rd prop. At just about any other franchise he'd have regular...

So even he's ahead of Carter? ;)

what has become of him these days?

He's a little small isn't he? I guess he's just desperate not to be picked up by the Reds...

Any reason Phil Potgeiter hasn't been mentioned?

Simmons and Carter aren't even on the radar for anything but the set piece. Carter has never impressed me at all and Simmons fills his own role well but no frills. Douglas was probably our second best pig behind Pocock. I have no idea what prompts this 'Jones is a 6' talk, It's absolute...

What are we thinking of Henry Taefu? He really impressed with little game time at the Rams, is he worth a look at for a super team? I didn't get too much of a look at him this year but he can't have been too bad in an undefeated team...

flog mate, get your facts right. Kepu, Sio, Palu, Polota-Nau were all born in Sydney. Folau was born in Minto. How does that make us anything like japan? almost every other player bar Speight, Naiyarovoro and Betham played age grade for Australia or have lived here since they were under 10...

I think Timani has a strong future at 8 for the rebels, if he can keep his handling right he has the same attributes as Vaea but is less of a liability at the lineout. I'd definitely like to see Vaea given a punt in the next season but Lopeti just looks like a violent silverback that idolizes Prince
