Ashley-Cooper to #15, Ioane to #13 , O'Connor to #14 and Giteau to #12. If Horne's fit and firing, however, move Ashley-Cooper to #15 and slot Horne into #13.

Got my tickets. Middle tier, behind the goal posts. Section 510. Sat there against the blues and the view was incredible, overseeing everything from the middle of the field. Can't wait.

This match will be full of mouth-watering individual battles. The talent and credentials of these players is immense, to say the least. In bold are who I think are the superior players: Daley & Holmes vs. Franks & Crockett Fainga'a vs. Flynn Horwill & Simmons vs. Thorn & Whitelock- Tie...

I'm counting Attack and Defence as two different areas. Just included them in the same paragraph because they go hand-in-hand. I didn't make it clear enough, sorry about that!

I think the best way to look at this match is by analysing the key areas. The Reds and the Crusaders are the two best teams in the comp- not a lot separated them last time, and not a lot will separate them on Saturday. The Crusaders look like the perfect 'team' on paper- strong, reliable...

Attention to those of little faith. Last year, people were saying that the Reds couldn't beat anybody, and yet they beat all the 2010 and 2011 finalists (bar the Sharks, who they didn't play). They beat the Crusaders just a few weeks ago, and whilst I know that this doesn't mean history will...

If goes for a 5-2 split, my bet is that Hodgson won't make the 22. He's ideal if he has to cover the whole backrow, but I'm guessing the two loose forwards will be Higginbotham and whichever one of Palu and Samo doesn't start.

I think he's also including Genia, Cooper, Ioane, O'Connor and possibly Barnes, so maybe he should have said 'QLD born/raised'.

3. Cooper 2. Davies 1. Horwill Best attacking backline in world rugby, and not bad defensively either. Quade actually made some dominant tackles tonight!

Agreed, something with Dark/Navy Blue and Gold highlights would be perfect. I also think we will wear the away strip once, if only for marketing purposes.

As much as it pains me to say it, I fear Robbie Deans' loyal nature will prevail yet again this year. Players like Mumm, Giteau, McCalman et al., who had very good Super XV campaigns and have been in the Wallabies 22 on a regular basis will be back again despite their apparent ineffectiveness on...

It's inevitable, Scarfman. Everybody seems to hate Tom Carter for some strange reason. I mean, I don't like him as a player and I can truly understand why others don't, but the unrelenting detest that the overwhelming majority of G&GR fans have for him is pretty unjustified. He seems to be like...

Wallabies RWC2011- Home & Away Jerseys Home: Away (Biggest picture I could find): Home & Away: I really, really hope they don't wear that abomination of an alternate strip. I honestly think a better alternative would be like the Socceroos, going all blue with yellow trim (see bottom of...

Is there any chance of getting Slipper or Morahan back? What actually happened to them?

I'm guessing that means Morahan, Slipper and Lucas are all gone for the season?

Do the jerseys have to be KooGa ones or can they be from any era?
