Mooney was a very good attack coach, with a solid head on the head coach he would be a good addition to the Reds right now. They never had a problem scoring tries while he was coach, it was a bit like the 2010 Wallabies.

Fucken fantastic!

Interesting question: Have the Brumbies got the best backrow in the world this year? Fardy would be close to a world team, Pocock would be a dead cert, and by the end of this year I think Vaea will be starting some games in gold. I cant think of a team in any comp atm with a better backrow.

That jersey is fucking hideous. Sigh.

I've lost track of the number of times I thought the Sadists would not be there at the business end of the season. I'm going the other way this year to see if that appeases the mocker gods.

Crusaders will be there, and highlanders (no massive losses from their squad). Cant see the Canes being back with the talent they've lost. Cant see the Tahs challenging the Brumbies either, too must experience and talent lost, plus Cheika. Saders, Brumbies, Landers and Jaguares semi finals.

If Dargaville can kick, he'd be a great fullback, got all the required skills. Plenty of pace and aggression, excellent defender, seems fairly solid under the high ball and is generally just a hard fluffybunny.

Eh? Who else is there, France? The Wallabies are looking good, and confident. Why not go there and try and nail the grand slam and do something even our 99-01 side didn't manage to do? It'd be a huge morale boost!

Was hoping you'd heard something on the grapevine about a plan to start returning to Brumbies rugby :(

Is that a guess, or something more concrete?

He's been getting dicked around a lot without any real consistancy, but he was starting to look very dangerous again in the NRC. Hopefully, Bernie does the right thing and plays hima t ten next year and he can get some consistent gametime in one position. His kicking is the frustrating...

I'm betting our scrummies will be Phipps Stirzaker Powell Stirzaker has the best pass in Aus, if he can get some consistency in the rest of his game he'll go far. Plus he's an angry ginger, and we don't have the option of Peter Kimlin anymore. Powell obviously a big bolter call, but he...

Based on the squad, you'd have to think we're going to try and open up a bit. The field position game worked well for the last few years, as it gives a solid framework for young players to work off, knowing what their role is and what to do. With an almost entirely international quality...

Is this the strongest squad in Super rugby? Not just in the number of quality first rankers, but the quality in depth is outrageous. First XV would be Sio Moore Alexander Arnold/Enever Carter Fardy Pocock Vaea Cubelli Lealiifano Tomane To'omua Kuridrani Speight Coleman Alaalaatoa Mann-Rae...

Ita Vaea must be up there, he's scored a double in two matches and picked up a try in at least two other matches, which should put him on 5-6 tries or so?

Hmm, it's still not up, the other games are though. Any ideas lads?

Oh awesome. The weekends Vikings game isn't up yet though, bugger.

Just seen the video highlights on the roar: Does anyone have a copy of the full match? Or know where to find one?

Really curious as to why Cooper is not playing at 10. Surely after the limited playing time he's had when uninjured, he should be getting as many minutes as possible to get him back into form?
