They're shitting themselves. They know their only hope was just what they did last night; make sure the EGM never goes ahead with all clubs there or they're finished. So they'll play on the various clubs' animosity and hope it goes away... Childish behaviour, and it reeks of desperation.

Time for a coup d'etat. Shotgun being Fouché!!

Re Really? What are Anthony's plans? Would be surprised if they split up after so many years.

Its the model we used through the 90's, and especially around 2001. We then switched to the playmaking 12 and direct 13, at the same time as NZ went the other way with Nonu and Smith. 5 Bledisloes for us and then nothing. Nothing for them and then a century long run of Bledisloes. I've been...

Anyone know of a replay of this game? Wasn't able to see it live :(

The backrow? Mate he's in the same category as Moore, Pocock and Folau, I doubt Chekia has even had the thought of not picking him flit across his mind. If Kepu isn't being considered, then the starting pack has only one position up for grabs: the 4 jersey.

The talent the Reds have let go is astounding, even in just the backrow. Butler and McMahon are banana benders, as well as Pocock.

This was the match that convinced me he was going to be our best 8, and the one we've been searching for since Kefu. He comes on at 55mins on the gameclock and unleashes. Imagine if we had that coming on in the final 30 in Gold?

I've had a slight nervous chill all weekend since he came off rubbing his calf, and this has just torn my heart out through my anus. Fucking. Gutted. You poor bastard, thanks for the memories Ita :(

At this stage, surely we're looking at Phipps Foley Tomane To'omua Kuridrani DHP Folau Stirzaker Lealiifano Beale Hunt, Kerevi, Horne etc in the squad, but can't see them in the 23 at this stage.

Not convinced by Dowsett. He seems like a really solid club player who would play 100 games and be a big name in club rugby, but I haven't seen anything from him to suggest he would be able to make a positive impact at Super level. Powell has a lot of Gregan about him, just gets absolutely...

Considering how bad the coaching stocks are in Australian rugby, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Cheika is just trying to get as many players as he can into camp for a few days so he can teach them more than they've been taught all season for their province.

Am I the only one thinking people are getting a bit hysterical over this? People get grabbed around the neck in mauls all the time, and Pocock far more than most. Almost all of them are missed. It's rugby ffs.

I think it's clear Bernie is struggling at this level. We were better under Jake White than we are now. We were a well drilled team then, now we're just a bunch of talented blokes on the same field.

I'd love to see us not attack the breakdown quite so hard this game. The Chiefs are so damn deadly out wide that if we over commit and get caught short we're buggered. Close game, Brumbies by 5.

Not sure where this idea that Kuridrani isn't playing well has come from. He's been one of our best.

That said, Liam Gill made Hooper look shit on the weekend. If Pocock is gone next gear, i'd love to potentially see Gill and Vaea team up, they'd make one hell of a backrow. Australia A backrow....? Holloway Gill Vaea
